If you watched the NBA round 1 on Monday you saw that the road teams are hear to play this year. Also you witness what happens when a team sits for a week plus as the Lakers did. The Cavs will struggle knocking down open jump shots early and fall behind early. They will pull even late in third as Lebron gets to the hoop at will on this ATL team. Cavs shooters will make just enough late to get a win but the rust early will cost them ATS cover here. Don't sleep on Joe Johnson as he is the one player with an advantage over his defender on the CAVS. SCORE CLE 89 - ATL 85
