NBA Free Play ESPN Odds: Blazers vs. Cavs

As the sports betting world digests the bombshell from NBA commissioner David Stern (see betting news) that he is open to legalizing gambling, one of the top sports handicappers has a free NBA pick tonight. Matt Rivers Blazers plus the 10 points to the Cavaliers at BetUs Sportsbook  is the play.
 
Lebron James and the Cavaliers are not a very happy club after coming home losing their last two games. Sure this anger could make them ultra focused tonight but in the end I can't help but back a very talented Portland team, even with Greg Oden out, plus such a hefty number.
 
The Cavs are 15-7 but did just lose in Memphis and Houston with the defeat to the Grizzlies coming in overtime. Now Cleveland plays a third game in four nights and even if they are mentally with it may not be all there physically in this first home game in a week or so.
 
The Blazers are 14-9 SU but have been terrible at the window of late dropping six of seven. Brandon Roy and the fellas are certainly not firing away on all cylinders right now and are banged up missing both Oden and Rudy Fernandez but these guys are still young and talented with Roy, Lamarcus Aldridge, Andre Miller and a few others and should be fairly rested and ready to go after beating up the Pacers in Indiana on Wednesday night.
 
Cleveland may get the win but I really do not see it being by double digits and that's what counts in my mind.
