Heat at Magic NBA Odds: Wednesday night, Dwyane Wade and the Miami Heat visit Orlando to tangle with Dwight Howard and the Magic in a Southeast Division NBA Odds showdown (7:30 pm Eastern, ESPN). Defending Eastern Conference champion Orlando is tied with Atlanta atop the Southeast Division, each having won 11 of their first 14 games this season. Miami, meanwhile, sits in third place at 8-5.
Oddsmakers at BetUS.com list the hometown Magic as 9 1/2-chalk and -500 moneyline favorite versus the Heat with a 192 1/2 total. Miami backers are getting +400 odds as the underdog. Miami broke a three-game losing streak with a 102-101 victory over New Orleans Sunday. Orlando has won five straight after winning back-to-back road games at Boston and at Toronto over the weekend.
Last season, the Magic took the season series from Miami three games to one. And three of those four games went OVER the posted totals.
Early betting trends show 66% gamblers taking the Heat and the points (9 1/2) on the side bet and 73% liking the OVER on the 192 1/2 total. Moneyline wagers slightly favor Orlando at 57%.
