NBA Finals Game Four Los Angeles Lakers at Orlando Magic



NBA Finals Game Four
Los Angeles Lakers at Orlando Magic (Lakers lead 2-1)
Thursday, 9:05 pm Eastern – ABC

SBG Global Opening Line: Magic - 3 , Total 202

The Orlando Magic shot lights out on Tuesday and got back into the NBA Finals as they defeated the Los Angeles Lakers 108-104. Orlando’s shooting was so good (63 percent) that it set an NBA Finals record. "They pretty much made all their shots," Lakers forward Trevor Ariza said.

SBG Global reports that early NBA betting has the public taking Lakers on the Road.

The Magic now are back in the NBA Finals and they could even the series with a win on Thursday. If they come back to win this series they would become only the fourth team in NBA history to come back after losing the first two games. "Why not?" Magic forward Hedo Turkoglu said. "We believe in each other and as long as we're playing our game, our system and fighting for 48 minutes - why not?"

Even though the Magic shot the ball extremely well, the Lakers still had a chance in Game 3. Kobe Bryant scored 31 points for the Lakers but he simply played poorly down the stretch. He had just 10 points in the second half, missed a key free throw late and committed a costly turnover in the last minute. "It was a bad night," he said.

Orlando had five players score at least 18 points in Game 3. "We lost two games, but there's no need to roll over," Dwight Howard said. "It's a seven-game series. A team has to beat you four times to end the series and we felt good knowing that we had three games at home."

The Lakers know they lost the game because they didn’t play much defense.
"We lost this game on the defensive end," Kobe Bryant said. "We had been playing very good defense and the team tonight shoots 62 percent from the field."

Here are the NBA betting stats for Thursday’s game. The Lakers are 23-8-2 ATS in their last 33 games as a road underdog. The Lakers are 2-11-1 ATS in their last 14 NBA Championship games. The Lakers are 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings in Orlando.

The Magic are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games overall. The Magic are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 vs. the Western Conference.

NBA Finals Game Three


NBA Finals Game Three
Los Angeles Lakers at Orlando Magic (Lakers lead 2-0)
Tuesday, 9:05 pm Eastern – ABC

SBG Global Opening Line: Magic - 4 , Total 198.5

The Orlando Magic had a chance in the NBA Finals to make the Los Angeles Lakers sweat and it remains to be seen if they get another one. Courtney Lee missed a layup with less than a second remaining in Game 2 and the Magic ended up losing Game 2 in overtime. Now the series shifts to Orlando where the Magic face a must-win Game 3 on Tuesday.

SBG Global reports that early NBA betting has the public taking Magic at Home.

The Lakers realize they could have lost on Sunday and Kobe Bryant has promised they will play better on Tuesday. "We're about to kick it up," he said. "You'd better believe it. We're close. You see what I'm saying? This is the finals. We're going to be ready to go." The Lakers have been an up and down team during the playoffs but Pau Gasol believes that is over. "We're playing tougher," Gasol said. "We understand what it takes to go get the championship."

The problem for Orlando is NBA history. Only three teams have won an NBA title after losing the first two games. "We've just got to go home and take care of business," Magic center Dwight Howard said. "The Lakers did a good job of protecting their home, and now it's our turn to do the same thing. We've been in some tough situations. We've just got to fight our way out."

Orlando has a number of issues they must correct if they are to make this into a series. The first problem is turnovers. They had 20 turnovers in Game 2 and their point guards were awful. Rafer Alston and Jameer Nelson have played very poorly and Orlando head coach Stan Van Gundy had to go to Hedo Turkoglu to run the point for a while. "We were just trying to see if we could get somebody out there who would make shots off of the double teams and off the pick-and-rolls and things like that," Van Gundy said. "I thought our guys fought hard, but we couldn't make enough plays. And the 20 turnovers crushed us."

Here are the NBA betting stats for Tuesday’s game. The Lakers are 22-8-2 ATS in their last 32 games as a road underdog. The Lakers are 2-5 ATS in the last 7 meetings.

The Magic are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 playoff games as a favorite.

SBG Global Current Line: Magic - 4 , Total 198

The Under is 10-1 in the Lakers last 11 vs. the Eastern Conference. The Under is 11-5 in the Lakers last 16 road games. The Under is 7-2 in Orlando’s last 9 playoff games as a favorite. The Over is 5-0 in the last 5 meetings in Orlando between the two teams.
