Cavs and Pacers clash at the "Q"
Basketball Betting Lines
04/09/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - It's understandable that the top-seeded Cleveland Cavaliers
would rest some of their players before the postseason begins next weekend,
but it's important to establish some sort of rhythm entering the playoffs.
Cleveland will open a brief two-game homestand Friday versus Indiana and
Orlando, and is 35-4 at Quicken Loans Arena this season. Owners of home-court
advantage throughout the postseason, the Cavaliers have won 11 in a row at
home and are 33-2 in their last 35 home games. Since the start of the 2008-09
campaign, the Cavs are an NBA-best 74-6 at the 'Q'.
The Cavs, though, are coming off Thursday's 109-108 loss to the playoff-
hopeful Chicago Bulls at the United Center. Superstar LeBron James did not
play and Mo Williams picked up the slack with 35 points and 10 assists. Antawn
Jamison chipped in with 23 points and six rebounds for Cleveland, which has
dropped two of its last three games, and three in a row on the road.
"I knew I had to be aggressive, not just scoring, but getting guys the ball,"
said Williams of his plan in James' absence.
Jamison suffered a foot injury and is questionable for Friday.
Indiana has been playing like a playoff team lately, but will miss the
postseason for a fourth straight year. Winners of two straight and eight of
their last 10 games, the Pacers recently handed the New York Knicks a 113-105
setback on Wednesday in the finale of a four-game homestand.
Danny Granger led all scorers with 33 points and Troy Murphy finished with a
double-double with 17 points and 12 boards for Indiana, which went 3-1 on the
residency and got 15 points from Roy Hibbert.
"A lot of fire power out there tonight," Pacers head coach Jim O'Brien said
about his team's play. "When they tied the game, our guys did the necessary
things defensively. I think movement is better when you have people who can
spread to court."
The Pacers are just 8-31 away from Conseco Fieldhouse in 2009-10.
Cleveland is 3-0 against Indiana this season and is aiming for its second
sweep in three years. The Cavs have won four straight, 13 of 14 and 18 of the
past 24 matchups with the Pacers, losers of 10 straight in the Forest City.
