I would not touch the spread but I did put Boston in some small teasers. I just have a lot of trouble seeing Orlando take Boston in 2 games on the road. It would basically mean they sweep them. I think Boston plays like they did the second half the whole game and gets the win, but who knows by how much. (same opinion on LA, but more sure of that one)

Orlando can as well play like they did in 1st half for the entire game and have an easy "W" in Boston.
It's going to be an interesting game.

"What we have here... is a failure to communicate."
- real question is, who can tell me what flick that famous quote came from...
To state the obvious. Orlando reached its initial goal of stealin home court advantage. The Celts have their backs against the wall. Short handed or not, not many would argue that here's a team that responds in that situation.
Celts, w/ a few extra attempts from the charity stripe , oughta cover this small number.

Its hard not to like Boston in this spot. All the money was on Magic Game 1 for obvious reasons Boston just were too tired and needed to refocus and regroup for a new series. The problem i have is Magic either show up or flop making an in game wager solid. Magic have stolen HCA and I dont feel have the motivation to steal another, though they could if needed.The big men more than match up and Boston needs to step up on D to beat Magic - what a miss KG is, they really need a better back up for KG, Perky does ok but they will have serious trouble this series. With Magic they have the talent but you never know which Magic turns up, Im betting its the one that Boston beats in today's spot.-The one that let a 20 pt lead slip to 5. Magic would be more than happy with 1-1 than going all out today. Ron Van Jeremy is more than useless in tight games and this will be tight. Such a low number id take the spread if I backed Boston may just pass again until the first 8 mins of 1st qtr has passed. Nothing worse than laying it with a team that isnt bothered. Lakers should win but 9.5??? when was the last time they covered a spread.
Two ways of looking at this - Laker bouncing back - the high number sucking extra Lakers action in expecting a Lakers blowout - I for one cannot remember the last one. The other is Houston will mail it in having won GM1. I think Rockets may have other ideas.Im passing on this unless the number hits 10 and ill take a HT with Rockets at +5.5.- at least they compete.

Why wouldn't Boston still be tired tonight? Seriously they played a very tough series vs Chicago, had a day off, played and lost to Orlando, had a day off, and are playing Orlando tonight. When did they recover from being tired? Especially from the effort they put out during the 2nd half of Game 1. How can the Celtics be fully recovered?
Not including the regular season I went 1-11 betting against the Celtics because of situations like tonight. I'd look at how the Celtics did in b2b situations and 3 games in 4 nights, and 4 games in 5 nights. I'm not betting this game because of a series bet but don't be surprised if the Celtics win tonight, maybe even in a blowout because IMO the main factor is Orlando won Game 1 (attained their goal) and won't play with the same intensity.
Boston hasn't lost b2b games at home in 2 years.

That's what I'm wondering, too. By the way, if anyone wants to know, I'm still thinking about both of tonight's games.

If Vegas knows Celtics are tired, why is the line rising like Mt. Everest? The spread in game 1 went from -2.5 to -1.5 for Boston and now it's -4.5? Possibly -5? Anyone care to explain this line movement?
