Magic vs. Raptors Game 3 NBA Free Pick

[Shame About Ray]

NBA Free Picks – Toronto to Turnaround Series against Orlando

Orlando Magic (52-30) vs. Toronto Raptors (41-41)

Thursday, April 24th --- Air Canada Centre, Toronto --- 7:30pm EST

Series: Orl 2-0

NBA Betting Line: Toronto -4 (202.5)

Toronto roared back twice in Game 2 to give the Magic a scare, but Bosh failed to knock down the game winning field-goal to push this series in to a tie. The scary thing for the Magic betting faithful, however, is that Toronto now knows that it can overcome any deficit against this team and put themselves in a position to win.

The Magic are still 3-9 SU in their last 12 games against the Raptors. What hurts their chances even more is the 7-1 ATS record that Toronto holds over them in the last 8 games between the two in the Air Canada Centre. Couple that with the rabid Toronto fans and Orlando is going to have an insanely tough time getting in to a rhythm up north.

Dwight Howard continues to be a monster, but it was Chris Bosh who began to show the poise that Toronto’s betting faithful have come to expect. Bosh played slightly stiff in Games 1 and 2, largely because he puts so much pressure on himself to be The Man for his team. Remember, this is a guy that when asked how he felt about the Vince Carter trade back in 2004, he responded by saying that, “everybody gets an opportunity to be great, and I guess this is mine.” The 25.0 points he is averaging is certainly a step in the right direction.
