Is Orlando -2 at Atlanta Trap Play of the Year?

[Broncos625]

They just crushed Cleveland, Atl just got crushed by Boston. Would think public would be loving Orlando at this number. Seems Atl is the play. Thoughts?

prob is the sucker bet.. but i remember a similar situation happened the previous game between these two teams. the line went from -2 orlando to 0 and orlando crushed atl..
this could go either way... but i'd take the magic cos they seem to cover wen they are favourites of like -4 or less alot

 

[Broncos625]

You're right about Orlando. They are the one team this year that I noticed that when a line looked too good to be true, they would actually cover most of them.

ye dont beat urself up over this game..tmw is big day, there's bound to be plenty of other juicy lines. but if u cant decide on one then take orlando.. if the hawks win, then all u can do is tip ur hat to them

in Orlando's favor, they are riding high from yest, rested all starters for the last quarter, and still are fighting off Boston for the 2nd spot

I agree, I would stay away completely.........

Call me a sucka then.

I hope not because this is one of the rare times I'm on a heavy favorite. I know Orlando wants to keep pace with Boston so it's a must win for them.

Go atlanta !!!

After a Orlando blowout of Clevelant last night, they won't have any gas left for the birds tonight:cripwalk:

 

[HacheMan]

Tough battle so far........

 

[sleepy111]

They are missing so many 3s...

 

[MRPOOPS]

I got HAWKS plus 2 sec half. Figure the Birds with those young legs could run faster in the second half and pull away.

How am i looking?@)

Wonderfull! Orlando is that good i see. Back to Back no problem against a good hawks team.

 

[HacheMan]

Orlando seeing an opportunity to clinch the 2nd seed and really brought it tonight......

 

[HacheMan]

We also just saw a SMART team in Orlando by fouling Atlanta & sending them to the free throw line instead of giving them an opportunity to shoot a 3pointer.

A tactic more teams should use but don't......

 

[sleepy111]

Glad they started to hit their 3s in the second half.

Seems they live & die by them but they get so many open looks with teams so concerned with Howard underneath.....

The use of that tactic really depends on the side of the fix the point shaver is on @)
