Cleveland Cavaliers vs Detroit Pistons Game 2 Odds
| Team | Spread | Moneyline | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cavaliers | +3.5 (-110) | +135 | O 216.0 (-110) |
| Pistons | -3.5 (-110) | -160 | U 216.0 (-110) |
Legal sports betting sites anticipate another tightly contested game between the Pistons and Cavaliers, giving Detroit a slight 3.5 point edge at home in Game 2.
Cleveland fought to tie the game up with under ten minutes remaining in the fourth quarter but could not hold off a late push from the Pistons to win by a final of 111-101.
Duncan Robinson To Record Over 2.5 Three Pointers Made (-135)
Robinson had his best game of the postseason in Game 1 on Tuesday, knocking down five three pointers on just eight attempts en route to a 19 point performance.
He shot 36.5% from three in the first round against Orlando which is a pedestrian number by his standards, but still managed to average 2.7 three pointers made per game on 7.4 attempts per game. Robinson posted his best statistical shooting season since 2019-20 during the regular season, shooting 41% from three point range and knocking down 2.9 threes per game on seven attempts.
Surely Robinson will attract more defensive attention after a solid showing in Game 1, but Cleveland simply does not have the same level of defensive ability that Orlando possesses.
Los Angeles Lakers vs Oklahoma City Thunder Game 2 Odds
| Team | Spread | Moneyline | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lakers | +15.5 (-115) | +600 | O 212.0 (-110) |
| Thunder | -15.5 (-105) | -950 | U 212.0 (-110) |
The Thunder are huge favorites again in Game 2 at NBA betting sites after winning Game 1 by 18 points, giving the Lakers their second largest loss so far this postseason. The Lakers are still without star forward Luka Doncic who does not appear to be ready to return any time soon, barring unforeseen developments.
Cason Wallace To Record Over 1.5 Steals (-110)
Wallace has yet to play over 26 minutes in any game so far this postseason, but he recorded two or more steals in four of OKC’s five games thus far, including three in Game 1 against the Lakers. He finished tied for second in steals per game during the regular season with 1.9 while playing just under 27 minutes per game.
Additionally, the Lakers have struggled with turnovers all season long, ranking 18th in the league with 14.7 total turnovers per game and 25th in opponent steals per game, allowing 9.1 per game. While Wallace may not see a heavy workload in terms of minutes, he uses his time on the floor to create havoc and usually ends up with a few steals because of it.
