2% on ORLANDO (+3.5) | 1% on Orlando ML

I have to believe my eyes in this game 7 and take the points with Orlando. Nothing I saw from the Cleveland Cavs in game 6 would make me want to back them in this spot despite only the home teams winning in this series. The Orlando Magic have gained momentum and confidence in this series and I believe that carries over into this Game 7. We also know that over the last 10 Playoff Seasons, Home Favorites of 4 points or less are a terrible investment, going 31-44-1 ATS. Cleveland is a one man show right now and Donovan Mitchell is a beast, but we also watched him do this in Utah and it never ended well there either. I don't think Mitchell is 100% and with the questions surrounding Jarrett Allen, there is just no way to trust this Cavs team to win by more than a bucket. I'll take the 3.5 points here with the team that not only should cover this spread but likely win the game outright as well. Take the Points with Orlando and sprinkle a little something on the ML.
