Golden State at Cleveland (+4)
The tank may finally be on empty for Cleveland.
We knew that fatigue would become a problem, and other than LeBron James, nobody looked any good for the Cavs in game five. LeBron can only do so much, and even he will succumb to the abuse his body has been through during this series.
The other issue for the Cavs is that Golden State caught fire in the fourth quarter, and that may carry through to game six. The only chance Cleveland has is if the Warriors play bad, and LeBron goes off. That happened in a couple of games this series.
However, in the last two games, Golden State has looked like Golden State, giving the Cavs fits on defense.
The last two games also have represented two straight covers for the Warriors, despite having to cover a big number (8.5) in game five.
So far in this postseason, the Warriors haven’t been scared to go on the road, either. Golden State is 6-3 straight up on the road, including a game four victory at Cleveland, which also happened to be a cover.
This game just feels like a letdown for the Cavs. Cleveland, I mean LeBron, has put up a good fight in this series shorthanded, but the luck will run out in game six against Golden State. I have a feeling this one may be over entering the fourth quarter. – Golden State
