Cavs are playing well and are really due for a road win (1-9 V) and who better than the Magic. The Magic are also a 7-15 team that is 5-5 at home. I can't see a team with that low a win % with a winning record at home. Analysing the records more than the teams here, but I see a Cavs victory.
Charlotte 1H (+7)
Bobcats D are ranked 2nd in the East this year only behind the Pacers, so I don't see a big lead for the Pacers early. Also, the Pacers are in a big let down spot here. Long West coast trip followed by the Miami game. I see a slow start for the Eastern conferences best team.
OKC (-12)
I usually stay away from big spread favorites, unless its the Thunder. The Thunder have covered in spreads >8 70% last season and 60%+ the season before. These percentages only get better at home. Not to mention the Lakers will have a slow and rusty Kobe playing PG. OKC fast offense will expose the Lakers awful defense and this will get out of hand.
What do you guys think?

i like cavs , magic also returning from a 6 game road trip. also like okc for reasons u mentioned, but it is an espn game so there is always a chance of sleight of hand ( like a black jack dealer dealing from the bottom of the deck)
the bobcats could conceivably hang around in this game. but this feels like big brother against little brother here so not interested.
good luck

Good point about the OKC game being on ESPN. Not just because of the sleight of hand, but I wouldn't bet on a healthy Kobe getting blown out on national TV. But he ain't 100%. Still like OKC.

Also taking Denver 2H -6. Ty Lawson has had no impact on this game. That will change. Denver will come out and make this a close game. Can't see Denver being blown out at home vs the JAZZ. Banking on a comeback
