Los Angeles vs Orlando
ATS: Los Angeles +2
O/U: Under 201
NBA Finals ATS & O/U Record: 5-0-1
What a great game 3, hopefully the Magic can make this a series. I highly doubt that LA comes out and allows the Magic to shoot mid-70%, heck even mid-60%. I think that the defense beefs up and the shots don't fall so easy for ORL tonight. The Lakers will still need Kobe to go off, and he will. I think the biggest key to the game is role players Mickael Pietrus and Lamar Odom -- when are these guys NOT the keys to the game?
So the spread has moved from 3 to 2.5 and now sits at 2. Everyone is getting ready for a Laker game 2 victory. I don't know if that will be the case, seems like people have forgotten about the importance of home-court advantage.
Since the spread has moved, it's making me wonder if picking ORL could be a good decision. But then again, how can ORL win this game? How is it even possible to play any better than ORL played in game 3 -- which they almost lost?
I should have taken the Lakers when they were given 3 points, either way, Lakers win big, getting points or not won't matter. The real spread should be something like Lakers -5.5. Chad John--- err... OchoCinco has LA by 12 and claims he is never wrong via Twitter.
I'm picking the UNDER because I think both teams will come out aggressive on D with an increased focus on making every possession count -- leading to less possessions -- leading to fewer points.
There is a huge difference from being down 3-1 and being tied 2-2. Game 4 should be a doozy.
