Major
(NBA) Cleveland vs. New York,
Point Spread: 15.50 | -105.00 New York (Home)
Result: Loss
Big home underdogs are strong plays. Getting 10.5 or more it is 142-102-3 for 58.7 and getting 12 or more it is 67-40-2 for 62.5. The Ewing Theory, which says once a team loses their overrated star, they become a good betting value in many circumstances, applies here as the Knicks lose overrated Carmelo Anthony to injury.
