Lakers ML +170 2u
Lakers got rid of most of their old legs. If you guys saw the early season laker games where they had nash, he was afraid to take shots. If you heard blake talk after the clutch 3 game, he said it was either nash or blake who was suppose to take the shot. Nash shied away, he didnt look at the in-baller once even though he had opportunities to get open. Good riddance until hes completely healthy. Kaman is also an old man. He definitely is more experienced than hill but hill and gasol work better together. And Hill is comfortable guarding nene at the Key.
Beal is out which will definitely reduce the outside shot threat and GREATLY reduce wizard's 3ball. Ya John Wall have been getting a lot better, he feels better, shots are hitting properly, but he has no1 to pass the ball to who can score consistently. Ariza missed 6-7 games, his rotations and play knowledge will be greatly diminished. Nene can't shoot freethrows. Blake + Meeks combo has been working pretty good. Meeks needs to be more consistent with his open looks and this 2 can be a duo of the bench of the playoffs. (wishful thinking.)
Magic ML +265 3u
Everything as far as trends go against the Magic here. Magic lost the vast majority of their games at atl. Magic lost to them at atl earlier this season. Millsap is back and looking healthy.
And because they know this, they are trying to just simply bypass this game and prepare for their road game vs houston tomorrow.
HOLD UP. If you saw or looked over their last game, Magic was clinging on till the 3rd. But because they were on a b2b their legs gave out in the 4th and ATL took it home. However, this time Magic just lost to Heats on a back 2 back. Then they lost to the suns, who if u saw their were running with the heats till the 4th, when everyone gave up except green(future superstar, Ill put money on +1000). But this ATL team will not and can not be compared to the Suns. The suns are looking like a young pacers team. They gathered a group of oddies and made them click. This team makes playoffs this year. If they can make a trade to pick up a young D-minded Center to compliment this core group, they will definitely be a deep playoff threat. IMO trade bledsoe , to Lakers for Hill and meeks. I digress.
So anyways this will be a very close game but the value was too good to let it pass. they win here at 50%.

Edit: Bolded the plays.
