My pick(s) so far today:

Atlanta Hawks +2 vs. Orlando Magic

I know I'm betting against Joe Public here with that Magic Massacre of my Cleveland Cavs last night, but the Magic are due for a letdown after that game. The Hawks are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games as a home underdog and are 11-2-1 ATS in their last 4 games. Yes, the Hawks just lost in Boston and the Magic won at home, but these two teams are different when the Magic are on the road and the Hawks are at home. Orlando leads the series 2-1, but I see the Hawks tying it up here and locking up that #4 seed.

Any thoughts about this game?

Well, that sucked. Hawks had the game and then decided to quit playing in the 4th quarter.

I was leaning towards the Hawks as well. The Magic look like they are heating up at the right time.
