Orlando at New Orleans

What a nine game winning streak will do to the line is very evident here. The Magic is on a nine game toot, but still just 10-7 on the road, and face a competent Hornet's team that is 14-5 at home.  This suggests we have the better team with the points here and I expect the Hornets "A" game chomping at the bit to end the Magic's run. While the Magic has been winning, they haven't gotten it done on the road vs teams with a better than .600 mark as they are 1-4 ATS in their last five. The Hornets are buzzing  with a streak of their own, a picture perfect 6-0 ATS in their last six vs. the Eastern Conference and a potent 34-16-2 ATS vs the Southeast. Nothing Magical about Orlando's 2-6-1 ATS mark in the last nine vs. the Hornets and this has been a dog's world as this series has seen the dog hit pay dirt to a 10-2-1 ATS in the last 13. There is a live dog here and New Orleans gets the call.
