    Big bet for me Wednesday

    Horrible night tonight -- hoping to bounce back.

    ATL -1

    If you hate it, fade it.

    For me NBA-wise, pretty big (though I'm admittedly not a big gambler bankroll wise -- this is much more recreation and much less of an income).

    ODU ML on Thursday is bigger.

    This is likely my only NBA play Wednesday.

    Orlando (-5) is the safer bet.

    I love this new-look Denver team, BTW. I just think the Hawks get the job done on Wednesday.

    As for Orlando, why are they only -5 (after opening at 5.5)? Bucks have been atrocious in their last two games, and they should be tired. Magic were favored by more in Phoenix against a much better Suns team (even sans Nash). Doesn't make any sense; I don't like it.

    I do like ORL/MIL under 180 a lot:

    Under is 7-1 in ORL last 8 vs. Eastern Conference.
    Under is 14-4 in ORL last 18 overall.
    Under is 6-2 in ORL last 8 road games.
    Under is 24-8 in MIL last 32 home games.
    Under is 6-2 in MIL last 8 vs. Eastern Conference.
    Under is 19-7 in MIL last 26 overall.

    I think Magic getting blown out at Los Angeles was cause for concern. It's a buy low-sell high type of line here....perception of Orlando is that they are weak and out of sync. They are still better than Milwaukee however.

    Yes, I was also leaning towards this. However I think the Magic come out and need to make a statement after their Lakers bashing. This is why I favor the spread more.

    And what would the perception be of Milwaukee after their last two performances?

    IMHO, this should be at least -6.5.

    This is a classic case of arbitrage. You need to take advantage of it. Magic (-5.5) or (-5) is the play here.

    Good luck. I'm not touching it. Magic just lost to the Lakers -- they weren't blown out, and it was one game against the champs on their court. If they'd lost 5 in a row or something, you'd have me convinced. The line stinks IMHO.

    Also because the Magic lost at Milwaukee earlier this season by like 10.

    That played into the spread too.

    bucks have dominated orlando ats in milwaukee for years, the line is too high (not too low) in that game but adjusted for the situation, hence -5.5. it isn't like orlando has won 10 straight. it's the bucks 4th game in 5 nights are they have only scored 8 points in two games including 4 garbage buckets. throw the last two games out (way out) and the line is too high. good luck!

    Hawks are still a very solid home team who plays up to their competition. Denver's on an ATS tear, but this is still a 13-20 road squad we're talking about here. I know they've played well on the road since the trade, but a lot of games have been against inferior competition and this game isn't it.

    Denver hasn't won in Atlanta since I believe '07-08, and they're 2-18 L-20 there. They also have the Magic and Heat on deck. I just think this is a bad spot for them.

    This is the same logic that made so many people on here so confident about the Pistons when the Nuggets went to Detroit on Jan 26th... Denver was a shit road team, on a B2B, that hadn't won at the Palace in a LONG time, and the Nuggets still beat them by 9. Such trends are worse than worthless because they're misleading.

    It seems odd to me that with the factors contributing to the matchup: Hawks having this good home track record against the Nuggets and in a revenge situation (albeit not from a big blowout), while Denver is supposedly a shit team on the road, missing Arron Afflalo, and with the Magic & Heat coming up next... With all that, ATL is only a pk at open?

    I like the Nuggets. Not a big bet, but I really wouldn't describe the Hawks as being in a favourable spot. More like neutral. Be careful going big, especially chasing yesterday's losses...

    I appreciate and respect your thoughts, SK.

    With that being said, the Hawks aren't the Pistons.
