Orlando at Charlotte

There are two ways to look at this game. One way is that Orlando is the better team. The second is that Charlotte at home is coming off a 23-18 home mark a year ago and is 3-0 this year, which is better than a 2-2 Orlando team on the road. I don't think Charlotte is a better team than Orlando, but they have proven to be a strong team at home. The 23-18 home mark was chock full of playoffs teams that lost outright in Charlotte, and Atlanta has already bitten the dust here this season by 20 points. Last year’s victims were the Lakers and Celtics as well as Utah, New Orleans, Atlanta and Chicago. Portland, Phoenix and Miami each lost twice here last year as well. It hasn't been an occasional lucky game for the Bobcats at home against good teams as the list includes many. The Orlando Magic scored less than 75 points last game and has come back from scoring under 75 to go 1-7 ATS in their last eight. They have also played OVER to a 10-1-1 mark after scoring 75 or less in their last 12. I like Charlotte on the moneyline here as well as for this one to go OVER the total.
