3 games to watch today

Public betting vs. Line movements - Watch out for these games today

Indiana Vs. NJ
60% of public on the Pacers but line has moved from -2.5 to -1.5.
Take the Nets +1.5 - Probably win outright

Atlanta vs. Boston
69% of the public on the Hawks but the line has moved from -10 to -10.5
The real money is on Boston - Take Boston -10.5

LA Lakers vs. NO Hornets
73% of the public on the Lakers (+1.5) but the line has moved from -1 to -1.5 showing money support on the Hornets.
Take the Hornets and the Lakers get their 1st loss.



Any thoughts?

Thanks FTW - I'm still fairly new at reading lines and public %'s so just want to ensure I'm reading into it correctly.
