NBA betting will never we predictable. All we can do is analyze the most advantages spot plus A LOT OF LUCK. I am never good at analyzing stuff plus i am never lucky. I am just betting by chance.

All insights and observations are just reiteration of what i have read online:

Atlanta hawks is a playoff team. They certainly are a good team. Like all great empires in the world's history, Hawks with injury plagued and other matters faces their down time. With Al and Joe out of this game things will be difficult for the Hawks. However, don't be so sure to go against them. Hawks still have Josh Smith, who was snubbed by Stern for choosing Rondo over him in replacement to Joe Johnson. Expect Josh Smith to put on a show on this game. Zaza, Green, and Teague will back josh on this game and put up a fight. However Marvin Williams with trade rumors and death of a family member will be a liability. Williams will not be focus and will be looking forward to resting on the break. In order for the hawks to win this game their bench should step-up their game and score a lot.

Orlando is 2 standings up against Atlanta. Magic is all on the roll winning 6 games of their 7. With the all star break coming, orlando can boast this run and just rest for this game since hawks is undermanned. With the history of this rival teams, Hawks ousting the Magic last playoffs and magic's lost last February 10, 2012, a revenge is foreseeable. If that is "IF" the Magic's 3pts continues to go inside the hoop on this game, this will be a walk through. Magic's match up against hawks are: Teague vs non-factor Nelson, Green vs Redick with his red hot hands and Josh Smith vs Ryan Anderson. I am hoping that Howard show some consistency and put another monster double double (15 plus pts and 15 plus rebounds). If Glen Davis and Chris Duhon show-up good statistics out from the bench, Magic's revenge will be sweeter.

It's obvious that i am pushing my luck and wishing that Magic Covers.

I already bought into the Magic early last night. Hawks are just going through the motions. They will probably regroup after the all-star break and hopefully get JoJo back. The Hawks have been awful of late. Now w/o JoJo, I do not see them being as competitive as the last meeting.

Magic -2.5

Though I got in early, I believe the Magic will cover the 4 as well.
