The Orlando Magic have looked scary good in their first two games in this series at home to open a 2-0 series lead over the Hawks. We have seen this many times before, and I would expect the results of game three may do exactly what the others have - a totally different outcome. These teams have come back to lay an egg in game three where they have posted a 24-40 ATS mark in rounds two and three over the last 18 years. It certainly offers value as the last time these clubs met in Atlanta, the Hawks were favored and won the game outright. Orlando is also a decidedly UNDER team off a single day of rest where they have cashed the UNDER to a 52-23-1 mark. This series played in Atlanta has also seen six of the last eight stay UNDER as well. I'll go with Atlanta and UNDER here.
