Atlanta + 9 Is a STEAL

[brahmabull117]

not only has Atlanta won 4 straight against Orlando...their only loss vs ORL was a 4 point game



I wouldn't be surprised if Atlanta steals one here... but if they lose, it will likely be a very close game



edit: this is the line for tuesday guys

i agree, I like the hawks to win the series outright

many teams have figured out the formula to beat the Orlando Dwight Howards

[pattymayo]

you're a little late to the party

yea but it's not gonna be a blowout. Atlanta has played GREAT against Orlando all season. No reason to think that will change now

[politicin]

So how can Atlanta steal one if they're already up a game? Like I said, the game was yesterday.

Yeah, there actually is a pretty huge reason. Its called play-offs. What happens in regular season stay in Vegas, get it?

except Orlando has shown very little ability to blow out decent teams

they're overrated. 9 points is a ton for a playoff game


I think ORL wins by 4

Well, since you're taking about regular season. Magic went 9-6 vs teams with .700 to .450 records. The 9 wins were by an average of 12 points. So i'd say they blow out teams just fine.

Orlando went 8-11 last 19 games against teams with winning records


lol at .450. Who gives a shit if they blowout Milwaukee or Charlotte? those teams are awful compared to ATL




most important thing here is that ORL has lost 4 straight vs ATL. Atl has all the confidence in the world. No reason to think this wil turn into a blowout

Dont lol at .450. Why dont you check what Atlanta vs 500+ before you make fun of Orlandos. And also look up Correlated Gaussian Winning Percentage, or just check any site that has advanced stats on it and see what Atl advanced win% comes out to using any method.

.450 teams are right up Atlantas alley bud.

Not that it even matters because in the 9 wins only Nets early in the year and Pacers fall into that category. Knicks, OKC, Heat, Rockets and Nuggets were the other team. You wanna try and argue that Atl is better then any of them?

Do you remember that Orlando whiped them out in 4 games last year by like 25 point average? That matters about as much as Atl winning those regular season games.

1)the numbers from last year mean absolutely nothing because it was completely different teams


2)the numbers from this year mean quite a bit because the teams have the same players and coaches



for whatever Reason, Atlanta, this year, matches up very well with Orlando. They have enough perimeter defenders to lock down Orlando's 3 point game and, offensively, they seem to be able to penetrate at will and get great looks at the basket


the first game was complete domination by Atlanta. I think Orlando will come back strong in the second game, but 9 points for a playoff game where the underdog has won 4 straight against the opponent?? I will play that 100 times out of a 100

orlando hasn't even hit a 3, hawks backers cash your tickets

[MoneyLineDawg]

I thought it was a trap at first because it seemed so high....oh well I'm rolling with all 3 underdogs + the points and a 3 team ML underdog parlay for fun

[BettingWizard]

magic cover first half

[drfunkmaster]

HAWKS SUCK.... f\*\*k them... i hope magic wins the serious.. they cant even shoot, they just blow the lead and cant even keep it close...

[MB]

Fuckin' Hawks!!!

[kaijunn]

damn this game got me nervous...looks like ATL will cover though...i hope.. 25.4 sec left.

[Laker_crazy]

Having said that,This should be an easy cover in the end for the hawks .......NBA

[brahmabull117]

atlanta covers

[kaijunn]

[MUHerd37]

Where was this Orlando effort in game 1 when I had a bunch of money on them? Bastards.
