The Coach's NBA Sunday Afternoon SLAUGHTERHOUSE
(NBA) Oklahoma City vs. Cleveland,
Money Line: -162.00 Cleveland (Home)
Result: Win
The Cavs had an ugly start to the season, failing meet what were perhaps unrealistic expectations. Since LeBron's return though, they appear to be showing signs of living up to the hype. Cleveland will look for it's sixth straight win tonight, hosting the Thunder who are coming off a loss at Atlanta Friday.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. LeBron - James has averaged 33.8 points on 59.6 % shooting, winning four of his last six meetings with Oklahoma City.

2. Home Cookin' - This figures to be a tough spot for the visitors, playing the final game of a five game road trip out East. The Thunder are 8-18-1 ATS in their last 27 road games.

3. X-Factor - Cleveland has covered the spread in six of it's last eight home games versus Oklahoma City.

Selection: This is a play on the Cleveland Cavaliers (8*)
