Hawks +4½ vs Magic
Game Time: 1/29/2007 7:00:00 PM

Orlando will be trying to avenge an earlier loss to the Hawks tonight, but the right play is on Atlanta and the points at home.
The Magic will be playing with revenge on their minds. However, with just one win in their past eight games, they still don't deserve to be laying this many points on the road.
Orlando is below 500 (9-12) on the road for the season. That includes a 0-3 against the spread mark when listed as road favorites of 3½ to 6 points. In fact, regardless of venue, the Magic have struggled in the favorite role this season, going just 8-16-1 against the spread.
The Hawks just defeated the Magic (at Orlando) on Friday night and are now 9-4 against the spread in their last 13 games in this series. Don't be surprised if they score another upset tonight.
Play: Hawks +4½
