While 11-2 on the road, the Magic are just 5-3 at home. Atlanta meanwhile has won six of their last nine games to climb to within one of .500. They have held their last five opponents to under 89 ppg while the Magic have allowed 107 per game to their last five opponents. Orlando has lost 63% of the time following an upset home loss. They are 6-13 overall since last season following a home loss and 16-27 after allowing 105+ points. We look for an Orlando hangover and lackluster performance against the Hawks. Should the Magic win this? Sure. Will they? It's likely. But, at this price, we like the value on Atlanta to win straight up on the moneyline.
