Magic vs Hawks Prediction

We just saw the Hawks lose at home comfortably as big favorites to the Raptors. The Hawks continue to disappoint year after year, and we’ve caught onto it. I just don’t take the Hawks seriously and have little interest in backing them with these soft lines. The Magic have won and covered 3 of the last 4 games against the Hawks, and if they’re serious about making a run in the East, these are games they continue to win. The Magic have goals and aspirations, the Hawks are here for the vibes. Give me the Magic and the soft line.
