Pretty much see it the same way bluephinn.  Hawks may put up a tough fight in the opener with a rusty Magic squad. With 3's raining down I'm thinking Over the total as well !!

BOLTA 

i know that dwight has gotten some bad fouls called on him, but he does put himself in those situations by not being smart with somethings.  If they're calling this tightly on you, you have to know to keep your arms a little tighter to your body, don't lunge AT a guy, keep your jumps straight...

anyways, yeah, the magic straight own the hawks even if the hawks could play on the road.  They are 7-1 ATS when the hawks come to town winning by an average of 16, leading by 18 at half.  They are rested and the hawks will wear down, which is why i think the game spread is safer, just in case they come out a little rusty, but i don't think it'll be that bad as orlando was playing some of the best ball in the game coming in.  Total wise, the number is a little low.  It might hit in the next game, but we'll get one over out of it before that.

small:
ORL -5 1st half
over 191

LARGE:
ORL -8 (point buy)
