Understanding Public and Money

Think of 'Public' as the percentage of people betting on each side and 'Money' as how much money is being bet. When there's a big difference between the 'Public' and 'Money' data, it usually means that the more serious bettors (referred to as 'Sharp Money') are favoring a particular side.

Erik's Analysis:

We keep hearing that this is a playoff atmosphere, and that means lower totals. Both teams have fully exceeded offensive expectations thus far and the good defenses should show up and show out tonight.

Erik's Analysis:

Tatum has been incredibly partial to the 3 lately and considering the plan for Boston is to heave as many threes as possible tonight, I like this over. M. On D Cleveland has the anchors inside with Mobley and Allen. So bombs away at this nice price.

Bruce's Analysis:

Here we go tonight with the Cavs at 15-0, but they're 0-0 vs. the defending champ Celtics. True, Cleveland has been a whirling dervish for Kenny Atkinson thus far, and were even able to rest Donovan Mitchell and suffer no consequences in the Sunday game against the Hornets. With the league's top offense and playing at the seventh-fastest pace, the Cavs only go at one speed--fast. Beating Boston is a different matter, however. The absences of Kristaps Porzingis is a negative, but Jaylen Brown looks fine after missing a few games earlier in the season. Jayson Tatum also proved a lot for the Cavs to handle as he led Boston in scoring both times it beat Cleveland at TD Garden last season. Play Celtics

Mackenzie's Analysis:

At some point soon for Cleveland, it has to run out. And the market is agreeing too as the spread steams towards Boston. Cleveland is shooting 42% from deep, and as impressive as that it, this Boston defense will bring them back to earth, allowing just 33% three-point shooting. The Cavs 2-pt % is feeling unsustainably high right now too at 60%. Time to fade the undefeated team.

Matt's Analysis:

I'm certainly going to play an NBA game or two on Monday, but I think this is too low for Tuesday so gonna take it now. Yep, the Cavs look awesome at 15-0, but this is exactly the type of game the Celtics need to get motivated off a possible championship hangover; and they are still 11-3 despite some uneven performances. Two Cavs rotation guys -- Isaac Okoro and Dean Wade -- left Sunday's win injured. I have no idea if the Boston players care about the NBA Cup or not, but a loss here and the C's are all but eliminated from advancing.
