Chock Full of Lock

One place, three picks, no mention of the Lakers (after this). Surely this must mean three locks.

ORLANDO MAGIC (-6.5) over Atlanta Hawks (-110)
Orlando is (much) better. They are playing at home. Their loss of Jameer Nelson is not as important as Joe Johnson's injury for the Hawks. Dwight Howard is going to do silly things while disregarding Isaac Newton and his ridiculous law of gravitation. It's Magic, you know.

Miami Heat (-5.5) over MILWAUKEE BUCKS (-110)
The Bucks have Andrew Bogut back and Brandon Jennings should run through the Heat's defense like it's a field of dandelions. AccuScore thinks this game is a toss-up. It's not going to be close. The Legion rolls over mediocre teams. And Milwaukee is decidedly mediocre.

Miami Heat/Milwaukee Bucks OVER 15 points being the largest lead of the game (-115)
See above. 

Previous Locks (11/30): 2-1
Season Locks: 7-3 (up $37.50)
