    Drama Pick Of The Day: Orlando +3 -120

    Been reading up on their game against Washington. Washington has won the last 10 meetings with these teams. In the articles I have read, this is definitely in the back of the minds of the Magic players, especially Victor Oladipo, who is from the DC area. He talks about how this has been a consistent subject with his family. Orlando was one of the hottest teams in December, and is finally assimilating to Scott Skiles type of play. Moving Oladipo to the 2nd unit has helped also. I see some special motivation in this game. Earlier in the season, they stopped an 11 game losing streak against the Raptors. With Beal also out, I see this new attitude translating to victory. Bought a half point just in case though.

    Magic +3 -120

    On a side note, also like North Texas ML over UTSA. UTSA is a very young team, probably the worst in the conference this year. North Texas has 4 new starters from last year, but they are starting to jell together now wining 3 of their last 4 games. With the Mean Green on the road with a 5-8 record, I'm not going all out with the full -2 1/2, but I'll give the ML a hit.

    North Texas -140

    Wow! Orlando line has moved to -1. Glad I got them for the price I did when I had a chance.

    Nice work man. It's like you already won. Even if it loses, you can't ask for anything better than that if Orlando closes as the favorite

    I initially liked the Wiz here, but line movement is a bit disturbing.

    Well, I got a split. Oladipo did great. The rest of the Magic left a quarter early. Got to find a tiebreaker. They say if it looks too good to be true, then it probably is. Well, I'm going to bite anyway. Washington does not look like that good of a team, but they are only a 1 point underdog. A lot of freshmen play in Washington's lineup. UCLA does not match up well against high tempo teams, but I think they can handle Washington, who is only 8-4 with a soft schedule, and just lost to UC Santa Barbara.

    UCLA ML -115

    Yeah, I thought I was going 1-1 the other way at that point. Basketball can be an unpredictable game. My betting record shows it.

    Wash owns Orlando and should be a team on the rise once they get healthy. Orlando has not beat Wash in forever.

    To be honest I think washington pulled this game out of their ass. They are fade material next game.

    I watched the game :money:
