I could be wrong
but I think Cleveland is not a good play tonight. I know it is important to look at situations and the Cavs really need this win but let's look into this further.
Games 1 & 2 in Cleveland: The Magic go toe-to-toe with the Cavs and get a split where they arguably could of won both matchups.
Game 3: Dwight Howard is limited to something like 24-28 minutes, Hedo Turkoglu goes like 1-11 from the field, and the Magic STILL easily win this game.
The conclusion I get from this is that the Magic just pose too many matchup problems for the Cavs. I truly believe that the Magic will win this game tonight, and ultimately close out the series in game 6 at home.
The Magic can play their average game and still get the win, while the Cavs need to play their VERY best just to have a shot at this game. Being that the game is in Orlando I am not sure how people can put any significant amount of money on Cleveland given the way the series has gone. Either way good luck to all, but I put my money on Orlando winning this series at (+105) so I need the Magic to get this one.

I would also be careful in this position if I was a Cleveland backer... now, I am not guaranteeing a win or anything.... BUT...If anyone has watched this series, it's easy to see that the Magic are by far the better TEAM. Of course, Lebron is a freak, and no one on the planet is better than him, but...he can't do it alone night in and night out in the playoffs by himself.
Orlando came back from down 16 and down 24 in the first 2 games...and almost won both...clearly, Orlando is having an issue coming out of the gates in the first 2, but, if Cleveland can't put a team away with those types of leads, then I just don't see any way that they can hang.
And, everyone keeps talking about Mo Williams, and how he's due to get hot and have a big game... and he is! I get that. He is a better player than he has shown, especially shooting hte ball. BUT, as bjh21 said...Turk was 1 of 11 Sunday night, and Orlando still won fairly easily. Who says Williams and Turk don't both get hot....if that's the case, go against everyone else, bet the Over, and when the Magic win and go up 3-1, you haven't lost your arse on the side.
BOL!
