The NBA playoffs have revealed some things to consider going forward. It would be hard to argue against one of those revelations, and that is the fact that Orlando has looked the part of a champion, more so than any other team to this point. They have completely dismantled the Hawks through the first three games, and have been winning by a staggering 29 points per game. Many thought that Atlanta would respond coming home in game three, but a 30-point loss has to leave them dead and buried here. There is also a situation brewing for a low-scoring first half, as teams that have allowed an opponent to shoot 50% or higher in three straight games, have come back to play UNDER in the first half of their next game to a 251-170 mark. That is right around 60% of the time. I'll go with Orlando and the first-half UNDER.
