NBA Trading: The Betting Advantage Trades Cavaliers vs. Wizards

Midway through the third quarter I had negative amounts on each outcome in the Match Odds market in this one. I did manage to turn things around and get a nice profit.

The Washington Wizards were finally able to field their top lineup. Both Gilbert Arenas and Brendan Haywood were playing in only their second game of the year. This output was more what the Wizards were expecting this year but injuries had taken their tole.

Cleveland stands with the best record in the Eastern Conference, while Washington has the worst. The lineup Washington had in this game had a much different look than what they have been fielding so far this year. With this win the Wizards ended the Cavaliers 13-game win streak.

With a completely healthy lineup there may be value in the Wizards for the remainder of the season.
