Starting shooting guard Courtney Lee is still questionable. The Magic's stellar rookie missed the first two games recovering from a fractured sinus. He began practicing with a mask on Wednesday, but his playing status remains uncertain. Redick, who has 27 points through the first two games in Lee's place, has held his own against Ray Allen and been one of the few bright spots for Orlando.

i'm thinking of going w/OVER here.lots of money on orl to move the line up.someone expects orl  to kick irish ass at home.myself i don't see it happening,but, i would expect both teams scoring at least mid 90's to 100 easily.so i'm gonna roll with the OVER here.should be a pretty safe play

The magic didn't look much better. They didn't cover in any of their first four games against Philly. And after the trades Chicago made (getting Brad Miller and John Salmons) they were a better team than Philly.

Minus good ol' skip to my....for that adjustment to the headband trick he played...the magic gaurds will be heavily over matched! It could get ugly?




You know what - that commercial was funny the first say 10-20 THOUSAND times I saw it. Luckily, someone earlier in this thread pointed out that the game is on ESPN & not TNT. Thank GOD!!! Barkley's cool and all, but between the multiple T-Mobile spots {"Since Chuck stinks, he's you" - - "C'mon Dwight, get some rebounds!!!!"}, the X-Men Wolverine promo, pre-game, half-time, post-game, pre-the-double-header-game, etc..... It's enough already!! Peyton Manning thinks this guy's overexposed!!!!


Oh well, I guess I can't hate on ya too much, since you do agree with me. I see the line has gone up to 5 now - always a good sign for the "underdog" - - Go Celtics!!!!!!!!

It's so hard to bet on Magic games, one way or the other.  Which team shows up? 

And I just hate Orlando's mojo, or lack thereof.  No leadership.  No heart. 

The only position I like on this is teasing the Celtics up to +11 with some other game you like.  Good road cover team (just as they've been an over-rated team at home, against the Bulls and to end the regular season.) 

But even that's without a lot of conviction.  Orlando at home?  Sure, win by 30, then lose to the Knicks, Toronto... 

Are there any Magic fans out there with a coherent theory about their on-again, off-again play?  Or does it just come down to, some nights they're going to hit 20 or 25 3-pointers, the next night, 7?

Cheers.

Pierce is rested...
Alston is out leaving Lue and Johnson with Reddick handling some...
It suprises me to hear noone mention that Boston wants to regain home court advantage and now is the time to do so...

Boston ML and Boston +5 is my play... both should pay off...

Triple Double for Rondo... who can stop em????

Orlando at HOME after a blow out? Cmon, I dont understand everybody taking Boston here, they can't match up against anybody on Magic, the only matchup in their favour is Rondo and all they have to do is play him at the free throw line and let him shoot cuz he cant.
 
Magic ML + points

yeah, i don't think i posted here yet but i'm on the magic half and game.  They will respond to a blowout, they will respond to losing a key player (ala howard game 5 against the sixers) and they will use home court to their advantage.

ORL -2.5 1st half
ORL -4 (buy down) BIG
