Orlando vs Dallas tomorrow night

I thought line would come out Magic -7 and i have them winning by 9
its due to pathetic performance by them at knicks, we are getting a small number..
I have a strong lean for magic and thinking of putting 2/3U on magic for tomorrow
Another strong lean is Den Cha Under 204 and Utah Sac O 212

Pinny is juicing Magic -5(-111) and local has -5(-110)

I think this game screams over. Total is only 186.5 the magic just had a horrible offensive game in N.Y. And had 18 to's and only started to score after knicks had game in the bag and let up. now they are at home and playing a Mavs team who shot 42% and had 15 to's @ MIA. I cant trust any team to win here but im pretty sure both teams shoot better and have less to's which will lead to more points.

The bet is over 186.5 SHIP IT

Alright you convinced me to go with Magic @ -5.

GoBlue77 · 03-30-12, 03:21 AM

wouldnt touch the magic with a 10 foot pole. mavs do not travel and are coming off a blowout.

after the horrendous effort against the knicks i convinced my self, no matter who the magic play next, i dont see them covering their next game. i just dont see dwight and company magically turning flipping a switch. talk about a team that doesnt care...

give me mavs here.

Yuh I'm sitting this one out also. No telling how Dirk and Kid are gonna play after that shillacking. Could go either way. Obv Mavs could use the win and the flip side is your reasoning. To much could go wrong and theres a lot of easier games tomorrow to choose from. BOL

Tough game. Who knows which team turns up to play.

Howard should be able to do whatever he wants inside but the same could be said for Nowitzki.

Must be better games on the card tomorrow.

Orlando has probably had more pathetic performances than any other team above .500 in the NBA. Just look at some of these games:

3/28: Lost @ NY 86-108, To Be Continued
3/19: Lost vs CHI 59-85 w/ no Derrick Rose, the next game they covered with a 10 point win over PHX
3/6: Lost @ CHAR 84-100, the next game they covered and won SU in Chicago
1/23: Lost @ BOS 56-87 (no Rondo, Allen or Pietrus), covered and won SU in INDI

They did have a rough stretch where they blew that 20 point lead to BOS at home, and then responded poorly by getting blown out by New Orleans, but outside of that small stretch, ORL has typically bounced back strong after a bad loss. Not saying I like ORL here, but I think they respond well tomorrow.

The perfect example to illustrate the old saying "It all depends on which team shows up to play"

Seriously though, PR9 opens a thread and you are instantly convinced? You must be a hell of a bettor.

Lol I remember that game, I was on CHAR spread. Could not believe it, I think ORL was up by 15+ at one point and ended up losing by 16.

Anyone got any orlando first quarter stats? They seem to win most

We'll see what happens.

Sbr people put a little too much into fading the public and not betting teams due to let down games. Works sometimes..

brainfreeze0 · 03-30-12, 05:34 AM

I'll bet either side depending on whoever I feel has the better edge. That being said, when I see a line that the public is pounding Im a little dubious. Goes back to the old saying "If it looks to good to be true, it probably is."

Sport_Fish · 03-30-12, 06:18 AM

I'll take Orlando for the 1H. Tired Mav legs should result in a slow start for them against a rested Magic team that usually does well on first halves. Can't entirely trust Magic to close out the game and/or win by 6, considering their meltdowns in the 2H.

PR9 · 03-30-12, 08:11 PM

ORL 1st Q and 1st H cashes

as99 · 03-30-12, 08:14 PM

I liked the play more after the reports got out on Orlando partying and looking like shit in NY as a result. They were probably scolded behind the scenes. Hopefully they hold on for the spread.

Speedy88 · 03-30-12, 08:15 PM

Fukkk pissed at myself for not getting on ORL. Had work today and a bunch of other stuff came up. Could have put in the bet from my iphone but didn't. Congrats PR. I'm feeling Clippy tonight. Gonna take them for either 1H or 1Q as well as -8.5.

PR9 · 03-30-12, 08:15 PM

So many teams play like crap in ORL during the 1st half after playing in Miami the night before . PHX getting blown out early, Lakers, and a bunch of others
