    Atlanta Hawks up 3-1 on Orlando but look at the Series Price.

    This has to be the lowest a team has been fave with a 3-1 series lead in any sport, no?

    They have to play 2 games on the road and one at home. The price is right.

    odds based on game 6 cause magic will win 5 & 7.

    magic should be favored in all 3 games.

    The line was similiar when Orlando was up 3-1 on Cleveland. Atlanta is a steal.

    It is a good price, but Atlanta needs to win the next game otherwise momentum could screw them.

    Atlanta will win series. They have dominated them. Its hard enough to beat a good team 3 times in a row.

    Atlanta being a "good team" may be a bit of an overstatement.

    It's not rocket science. Orlando has homecourt.

    Oddsmaker know what they're doing. Atlanta is relying too heavily on their jump shots just to squeak away two wins at home. If Orlando can somehow kinda shoot their 3's they'll win this series easily.

    Series is a toss up. Orlando wins G5 for sure. If it goes 7 they will have a bunch of momentum and home court so that's a very likely win. The only question is G6 in Atlanta. I still like Orlando to get it done.

    Oddsmakers have given ATL no respect all series and that isn't changing now. However, I have no doubt in my mind that ATL will win this series. It's a steal at that price

    I figured these playoffs would be a crazy crapshoot before they started. Boston was having trouble , losing to vastly inferiot teams, along with San Antonio falling apart. Memphis playing solid ball ahhhhh a whole bunch of crazy chit. Orlando sub par also. Now, an over can't be bought anywhere. A good first round to sit out this year, IMO.

    we've been in the playoffs the last what 3 years? took Boston to 7 with a bunch of 2nd rate players on any big team. we made the Heat look like a bunch of bitches when Wade ran that show. and we still had not real All-Star. we run into Boston and Orlando every year. two great teams and this year we have figured out how to beat Orlando and were still looked at like were a bunch of punks. there isnt a single player on the Hawks that anyone is desperate to pick up and yet here we are again in the playoffs looking as good as anyone that made the playoffs. come on man get real.the Hawks are legit again. its no longer a coast game on the schedule.

    You should probably wait and see if Orlando wins game 5, if they do the line will drop significantly and then it's time to jump on it. I think Orlando is over rated and trading their whole team except Dwight was pretty stupid. Atlanta wins this series in 6. Good Luck to All

    Only eight teams in NBA history have won a best-of-seven series after falling into a 3-1 hole.

    the way to play this is take ATL ML +300, then if they win, great
    if not, take them for the series - which will at that point be lower juice
    than -230.

    Not really...they started with home court, now they need to win on the road.
    Atlanta only needs to win their one home game, hence they now have homecourt advantage.
