Cleveland has had a habit of playing poorly following a Straight Up win, thus making the Rockets-Cavs game one to bet.

The Cavs are 0-5 Against The Spread in their last five games following a Straight Up win.

While the Rockets are 5-2 ATS in the last 7 meetings with the Cavs, they are 2-5 ATS in the last 7 meetings in Cleveland.  The Cavs beat Houston in their last meeting but the Rockets have beaten them in six straight games prior to this.  In fact, Cleveland has only beaten the Rockets twice Straight Up in their last ten meetings.

Cleveland has only covered in four of their last ten games, as have the Rockets. 

The Cavs are a -2 home favorite.
