It's hard to fade you, especially given your impressive record. However, Boston plays well against tough opposition. This is the kind of game you expect Boston to cover the spread. And for the records, Orlando are only 2-11 ATS at Boston.
Very true, when I cap games trends don't play to much of a big role. I might look at the games from a season ago, but nothing older than that. I don't have the stats from last year but Orlando seems to be playing better defense than they were playing last year.
i also like orlando +8.5 but im not making any moves yet due to the injuries of jameer nelson, keith bogans, and mickeal pietrus, they are all inactive and anthony johnson and jj redick will be in the starting lineup
at first look getting orlando + alot of points looks good
but looks like 2 starting guards are out
boston should confuse these back-ups
boston defense should get the job done
if dhoward picks up a few early fouls this is a 1H blowout
One other thing to consider is the way Boston blows out good teams. Boston hardly fail to cover in this kind of games. Bring on the Lakers and Pistons and Boston show you their true class. I think Boston will cover the spread here.
"I have the word dominating written all over my house and I talk about it a lot before every game," said Howard, who's averaging 25.8 points, 15.5 rebounds and 3.8 blocks in his last four contests. "I think about dominating the whole game. I've got to have that type of mentality every night for our team to be successful."
Hope he wont get the early foul trouble *finger crossed*
i got absolutely murdered yesterday afternoon and late games be afraid that i'm on Orlando and under also...other picks miami and over...never lost so bad until yestrday
