Vegas Play of the Day: Cleveland Cavaliers at Chicago Bulls

Here’s the latest installment of the Play of the Day, which uses odds from the South Point. Our three sports writers started with a $10,000 bankroll — fictional, of course.

Cleveland Cavaliers plus-110 at Chicago Bulls: $300 to win $330

The zig-zag theory has worked pretty well so far in the NBA playoffs but I’m thinking the Cavs buck that trend tonight. J.R. Smith returns to the lineup to give Cleveland another shooting threat and it’s going to be enough for the Cavaliers to take a 2-1 series lead.

I’d be lying if I didn’t admit I’m at least a little influenced by the return of LeBron James’ headband but I also think this just feels like a situation where Cleveland is going to re-take control of the series.

Standings: Bern (78-68-1, $11,550), Keefer (78-76-2, $10,197), Brewer (68-82-3, $2,075)
