The Golden State Warriors, in only their second game of the season as an underdog, destroyed Lebron James and the Cavs Monday night…. on the road no less.

It was a 132-98 wallop. The Warriors had entered this game as a +3 underdog.

Recent trends suggested an opposite result as the Warriors had been 0-8 Against The Spread in their last 8 games playing on 1 days rest while Cleveland has gone 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record.

Some 60 percent of those betting this game were backing the Cavaliers. 

Stephen Curry scored 35 points in three quarters as the Warriors reasserted their dominating play during the rematch of the NBA Finals and made sure the game that improved their record to 38-4 was never close.

LeBron James was held to 16 points and faced the largest deficit of his career on a night when his team was expected to come into its home court with extra motivation.
