    Loved the Magic @ -5

    W/o Howard, do I hedge and Take Denver +3 or ML/ Or roll with SBR's famous "Star is out strategy"

    Lawson is playing solid, Affalo is a good 2, but Denver doesn't really have a great post presence to exploit the Magic frontline. But, who do the Magic have that will score the basketball?

    I'm on the -5 as well. Leave it as it is. They will still cover this

    Denver is 3-0 ATS last 3 against Magic.

    Both teams are rested.

    Nuggets covered and won at Chicago last week with a similar opening line.

    I'm fortunate to have a local at +5 and am on Nuggets for 10 units.

    Almost have to take that line at -110, or quit gambling.

    Orlando -1 1Q. Theyve been coming out strong 1Q vs Denver coming out weak 1Q, of course now it will be opposite day

    I was looking to bet Denver here, but couldn't find a good line at any of my books. best I could do was +3.5 -115.

    Now that HOward is out Magic will cover. We've seen it all this year. Aldridge announced out for POR, POR covers vs LAC. D Rose announced out against the Heat, Bulls win SU and cover. The list goes on.

    Magic are the one team that the "play harder with star player out" rule probably doesn't apply to. Even if they did try harder, Howard is their team
