Orlando, Toronto and Boston were all in the 60% to 65% action range with their respective spreads Thursday evening.
The Magic line has gone from -7 to -9.
The line on Toronto was coming down from -9.5 to -8.5 and now down to -7.5 at some books, and this is with the Raptors receiving around 87% of the public backing.
You gotta love that Sagarin indicates a line of Toronto -7 here.
Toronto has won the last eight in this series and the Lakers have stumbled of late.
In fact the Lakers are 0-5 Against The Spread in the last 5 meetings.
Word to the wise, Toronto has been abysmal at covering this season. They are just 29-39 Against The Spread compared to 48-20 Straight Up. Not that LA is much better.
We are giving the Lakers a 55% chance of covering the spread here but can't bring ourselves to offer an official pick.
Denver was seeing the most lopsided action this day with 80% of the spread backing at -10 hosting Dallas.
