Who wants my NBA plays?

They should shoot the 3 a little better in terms of making their open shots, but keep in mind Boston gave them very few of the open looks they're accustom to. I think Doc has realized Howard has very few back-to-the-basket offensive moves and refuse to truly double team him is going to play a big role in the struggles of the Magic. And don't forget that based upon his track record, one of these games Howard is going to get himself into foul trouble early. Watch, the Celtics will keep a big body on Howard, foul the shet out of him on the easy ones, make him earn all his points, and most importantly guard the 3pt line.

I think the books get back all that "easy money" they lost in the Atlanta series.

yea Boston played great and really took the Magic out of their gameplan. I had boston game 1 just based on the long time off for the Magic and they came out flat. I think this game will be much differnent and Boston won't be able to exact their will on the MAgic. Make no mistake, this Magic team is a lot better than the Cavs. As far as the books getting back the MAgic money, Boston is getting 60-70% of the spread love and a decent amount on the ML.

I was implying throughout the series, not this specific game. Most of the forum was on the Magic game 1 and got rapped. Put it this way, if Orlando covers the spread tonight, I'm envisioning everyone jumping back on the bandwagon for game 3...and I would be leery of this is all. Don't forget Boston was up last year without KG 3-2 and should have won the series.

Magic may very well be the play tonight as I think they really have to win tonight if they want any shot of winning the series, but I'm on the fence on that spread...and by all means please feel free to convince me why I should take Orlando by 8+ cause I'm really not sure on that as of now

[t-wizzle]

LB, is the Bos-Orlando line now at 7 a sign that it should be an easy cover?

I could be over-analyzing but my guess is that the books threw out the 7.5 knowing the public would be huge on Boston and also might buy up to 8 thus collecting the extra juice. Whether it's 7.5, 8, or 7 doesn't really matter because they are expecting this one to not be very close.

Hello Boys... how's goin?? ... when i see the previous page in this couple weeks i miss a lot of game and money... that's SUCKS !!! coz i've been busy lately... and still for comin weeks.. hiks...hiks .. i like over today... it's anyone can give me an opinion..??? my time only 15mnt.... thxxx.......

[CarolinaDaze]

Well at leaste i see a few people on the Magic. I think they definitly win, and i think they cover -7.5. Its my opinion that they will rain 3's on Boston, and Boston will be content with stealing one in O-Town. GL to all.

[SRBI]

As long as the C's contain Howard, the Magic will have a very tough time opening up those 3 point shots, and as long as the Magic don't have their 3 shot, Celtics will continue to dominate and destroy. So what do you want to put your money on?

Why would they be content with just 1 game man, that is just a silly thing to say. If anything, they wanna sweep the damn series so they can get as much rest as possible before facing the Lakeshow in the finals.

[paco]

Boston will not be "content " to steal 1 game. They will come out with the same intensity and drive tonight. In my opinion

[andrea_jean]

Hmm.... Ok GTG guys... GL for all who play tonite... i think im gonna past today game again... bye now..

yup just like the suns game last night. opened at 7-6.5 and the pubes bought the suns down to 6. a flat line of 7 is an indicator of a magic win and cover. i say orlando wins by more than 8.

[hels]

Andrea, I think not playing is one of the best decisions... it doesn't seem like there is any consensus at all among the board. People are on one side or the other. Either Boston will do what they did last game and it'll be close, or Orlando will come out guns a blazing and destroy them....

:whoknows

[hels]

I do agree with you LB. Boston is good but I think Orlando will come out strong early and take control from the very start.

[refrain87]

If the books knew that everyone would be on boston, shouldnt they have made the magic line a lot lower? Why would they give boston higher number than game 1. Is this game really a trap? I honestly dont see boston getting blown out too bad tonight.

boston can't afford to be content. in recent memory this is the 'worst' i have ever seen them overall in their home play. being in the garden just doesn't seem to give them that advantage this year, it's just one of those years. they seemed to be 'content' to go into orlando last year and lose that game 6 to bring it back to boston for a game 7 wrap-up that never happened because orlando wrapped them up in boston instead in 7.

boston needs to win this. doc will urge them all game to do whatever it takes and honestly, as much as i don't like sheed, damn can he ever get in dwight's head, he's such a dick, but the mindgames are big

[Laker_crazy]

15 units at stake tonight on 3 plays ( Magic -2.5 first quarter),( Magic -7) ( Magic Team totals Over 98)

Good luck everyone,

LC

[melia26]

I am leaning Boston with the points, don't know if they will win, but I like them to keep it close. Good luck LB!

[Pauulzcappin]

so, do you have any official play, lb?

LC ( +110 units last 2 weeks)

Nice advertisement. Good Luck Bro

[Badbeats]

I'm thinking of playing magic at -2 and over 183.5 in a tease, what you guys think?

[allabout the $$$]

i got bos +8 early hoping it gets down to 6 for a middle

[Laker_crazy]

Nice advertisement. Good Luck Bro

Did u mind that bro? if so apolagies...Good luck.

[lakerboy]

Did u mind that bro? if so apolagies...Good luck.

No im not offended my friend. I know you are doing very well lately and are happy about that and im happy for you. I just found it funny that you came into my thread and bolded your plays and stated that you are up x amount of units. It gave me a good chuckle. You know i like you brother but touting isnt part of my gig.

[big0mar]

This game is starting to be a mind**** for me. Line movement says ORL, but I'm pretty sure BOS is a better team and matches up too well against ORL.

Bro it wasen't done with any sort of purpose,i have been adding my profit units next to my signature in my thread too,either ways apolagies for any inconvinience that i may have caused to you,for a moment i considered it as my thread.

P.S The last thing i would do is tout in front of you,probably you do not remember that i respect u the most here,the plays were bolded for people to see what i was on that's about all.Would take care from next time bro.Sorry !

[jwbama23]

Expert, I am assuming you are going under 1st half considering your other post showed you thinking under by a decent margin for the game?

what about this line so far says anything about orlando being the play? not being a jerk i really want to know.. because from where I am sitting it looks like vegas has no real opinion on this game so far and are just letting the action do the work.. the only move i see that would indicate a play based on vegas's moves would be over 186.5 if you could magically still get it or buy down to it..

[Laker_crazy]

LOL lets move on.

Done that already bro,dont keep no hard feelings,Life's too short.Good luck on your plays tonight.

They got blown out in game 1, and they're favored more in game 2. Public looks to be heavy on BOS.

[J-Ro11]

**Orlando Has Not Lost Two Consecutive Games Since January**

[Weaz]

the Orlando Magic have been dominant in their last 20 games when favored by 8-points or less, going 17-3 SU and 14-4-2 ATS and in their last 12 in that situation, the Magic are 11-1 SU and 10-1-1 ATS. magic the play here???

[vetskov]

Leaning on th efirst half over cuz the line is just low imho but I want to see what EXp will say about it. LB, paco - any thoughts on the 1st half total?

I was also thinking first half over too and over for the game. I just dont see orlando shooting that bad again. Im hopeing Excapp goes with the over, would make me feel alot better about it
