The Southeast Division-leading Orlando Magic have had a week to think about a ugly 82-73 losing effort , against the Denver Nuggets . Since the all-star break the Magic have had time to stew about getting mugged and will be primed and motivated to rebound from one of their worst performances of the season against a Charlotte Bobcats team they have dominated here in the Magic Kingdom, as is evident by a current 6 game SU/ATS winning streak.

Coach Steve Van Gundy , when asked about out his teams play , in the above mentioned contest said, Quote: , It was an embarrassing night for our players, for me, for everybody.

NBA players and teams do not like to be showed up, so you can bet that we are getting a very motivated team to back in this spot. With that said, look for an explosive Orlando offense that has averaged 102.2 PPG, to come out here with all guns blazing , and roll to a conclusive win.

Final notes & Key Trends: The Magic are 41-14-1 ATS after a straight up loss. Home team is 14-3 ATS L/17 in this series.
