    GM3 Magic @ Hawks, Magic -2

    Line opened at Magic -2. The Hawks may have been underdogs at home once or twice this year. This is the playoffs and the Magic could easily cover this, while the Hawks could easily cover this. This is a great line for Vegas if they are trying to get people to bet on the Hawks which puts doubt into my mind. What say the SBR crew? Good day

    my thought was take the Magic in all games regardless of the spread, it's worked out in the 1st 2 games (although last night was a little scary till the 4Q)
    i figure magic wins this series 4-0 or 4-1... so i figure i win at least 80% of my bets... having said all of that Atl is a diff team at home then on the road... for now lets roll with a good thing Magic -2

    Im definitely staying away from the magic in this game, teams down 0-2 usually win game 3 at a high percentage.Ill take the magic game 4, and pound them like crazy if they get back to Orlando.

    I definitely think this line is designed to get the action on the Hawks, that's why I am staying away from this unless something funny happens like the public pushes it to like -3 or something, good day

    Magic smoke the Hawks...forget all this shit about traps.

    Player for player Magic is better hands down, they're stronger in every aspect of the game & much more motivated. They will not let a mediocre team like the Hawks beat them.

    I said it last night & I'll say it again..DO NOT throw your money away on the Hawks. Magic beat them by an average of 17pts & all playoff wins except 1 have been by double digets.

    The -2 is a gift..take it

    Just look at the teams ... I mean seriously the Magic are SO much better. It's not a trap, it's a gift.

    Wonder how the home games today effect the lines 2morrow, I bet this line goes up to -3 or more, truism

    -2.5 it went up a half point, seems that the public is backing Orlando its the biggest bet of the day if you go to scoresandodds.com I am now thinking that the trap is going with Orlando, I initially thought the trap was Atl, no play for me, truism

    HERE IT IS...

    ATLANTA has a huge advantage at home due to refs giving more calls to the home team. Check the refs stats i havent had a chance. BUt also Dwight will foul out or foul very quickly again tonight. This is will put Gortat in the game and allow Atlanta to control the points in the paint. I think the game will be even tonight. ATL has the edge. Its easier for Atlanta to play better and shoot a higher % than it is for ORLANDO to come out for the 3rd time and dominate from the start and shoot a high %. This reminds me of the black jack table. You just won 2 big hands. this hand bet the table minimum!!

    Actually Pinnacle opened the game at ATL -9 3 days ago and quickly took the line down after ORL issued out another beatdown, Good day.

    Orlando -2,5..... If Orlando starts playing defense in 4th quarter like they usually do, its all over for Atlanta. And I dont think that Hawks can build double digit lead before that
