Since putting together four straight seasons of 50+ wins, the Orlando Magic franchise has not been close to a playioff team. They have won no more than 37 games in any of their past six seasons, and at 11-15 to start 2017, they appear to still be quite some distnace from finding their way back. They are 6-11-1 ATS in their last 18 games, and the biggest problem for this team has been the lack of commitment on the defensive end where they allow a woeful 110.8 points per game. After being a playoff team most seasons (five of last six), the Nuggets have failed to have a winning record in each of the last five, but at 13-11 on the season this team appears to be knocking on the door. They have done a good job by winning 8 of their 12 games vs. a team that currently has a winning percentage of less than .450. Play on Denver.
