Chicago(+8) at Orlando(-8)
Its pay back time for the Magic tonight as they take on the Bulls at Amway Arena in Orlando. The Magic were embarrassed by the Bulls in Chicago back on February 24th and believe me Orlando hasn't forgotten. The Bulls have done a very good job in this series covering the spread as they have gone 7-3 ATS in their last 10 meetings. But i just cant ignore the fact that the Magic lost in Detroit the other night and coach Stan VanGundy will not let them forget about it, I expect the Magic to come out tonight and throw everything they have at the Bulls, both Offensively and Defensively speaking. Orlando is one team i can say that has rebounded from a loss better than any other team in the league and that usually means an ATS cover as well.
Betting On: Orlando(-8)(-110)(5.50 units)
Final Score:
Chicago 79
Orlando 107 (win)(+5.00 units)

L.A. Lakers(+3.5) at Houston(-3.5)
I couldn't believe my eyes when i saw that the Lakers were getting 3.5 points to the Rockets. I know that Lamar Odom is out but seriously how can you make the Rockets favorites against the best team in the league. The Lakers are coming off a loss to the Trailblazers and i just know that coach Phil Jackson laid into them about their poor performance. I do think the Rockets have played some great ball of late but i just cant see how they match up with this powerful Lakers team. The Lake show are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 trips to Houston, and tonight i don't see much changing as far as that trend is concerned.
Betting on: L.A. Lakers(+3.5)(-110)(5.50 units)
Final Score:
L.A. Lakers 102 (win)(+5.00 units)
Houston 96

New Jersey(+3) at Golden St(-3)
The Nets find themselves just a few games behind Milwaukee for the 8th and final seed in the Eastern conference playoff picture. I believe they will be highly motivated to come into Oakland and take one from the struggling Warriors tonight. The Nets have not been all that great on the road(14-16) this year, but they have managed to cover against the spread 8 of the last 10 meetings against the Warriors. In fact the Nets are 4-0 when they are 3 to 3.5 point underdogs this year and it just so happens that the spread has been set to that number tonight. Even with the Warriors getting their top play maker Monte Ellis back from injury, i just don't think they will be able to handle the Nets on their home court. One other key note is that the Nets lost to the Warriors in New Jersey back in November, so there will be a bit of a revenge factor here for the Nets to avoid the series sweep.
Betting On: New Jersey(+3)(-110)(5.50 units)
Final Score:
New Jersey 112 (lost)(-5.50 units)
Golden State 116
