Orlando vs. Boston Preview/Picks (May. 6)

Free pick and preview plus NBA betting odds and basketball lines for the Wednesday Night game two playoff matchup featuring the Orlando Magic and the Boston Celtics from Boston…

NBA Parlay Pick – Magic vs. Celtics in Game 2

The Boston Celtics (66-24 SU, 46-43-1 ATS, 47-42-1 O/U) will be looking to even their second-round Eastern Conference semifinal series with the Orlando Magic (64-25 SU, 52-36-1 ATS, 38-51 O/U) at one victory apiece when the two Eastern Conference rivals square off at TD Banknorth Garden tonight at 8 PM ET.

The Magic narrowly escaped with a 95-90 victory in Game 1 on Monday night as forward Rashard Lewis scored a team-high 18 points and grabbed seven rebounds to help Orlando cover the spread for NBA betting backers as 1.5-point road underdogs in the BetUS Sportsbook.

Dwight Howard added a double-double for Orlando with16 points and 22 rebounds as the final score played Under the 188.5-point O/U total.

All-star forward Paul Pierce led Boston with a team-high 23 points in a losing effort.

Here is a look at tonight’s key trends, followed by my in-depth analysis and NBA Free Picks.

The Magic are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 road games vs. a team with a home winning percentage of greater than .600.
The Magic are 11-3 ATS in their last 14 games as a road underdog.
The Celtics are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games following an ATS loss.
The Celtics are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games as a home favorite of 0.5-4.5.The Under is 7-0 in Magic last 7 Wednesday games.
The Under is 4-0 in Celtics last 4 vs. a team with a winning S.U. record.
The Under is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings.
The Magic are 4-12 ATS in the last 16 meetings in Boston.
The Underdog is 4-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings.
The Road team is 4-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings.

NBA Odds

Orlando Magic -4 -110
Boston Celtics +4 -110
Over 188 -110
Under 188 -110

Analysis: While I like the Boston Celtics to win tonight’s contest over the Magic, I’m not necessarily sure they can beat the Magic by five points without team leader Kevin Garnett.

I think the Magic cover the spread again tonight in a losing effort while the Under plays out for the fifth straight game between these ballclubs and sixth in the last seven overall.
