Orlando was off to a flying start and suddenly hit the skids. The one good thing about it is they are still playing solid defense. It's just that they haven't been scoring well. LA is soaring a bit above expectations and brings in an 18-10 record. The Lakers benefited from an early home-heavy schedule and has actually been a losing team on theroad at 5-6. Orlando got the money in its last outing, dropping a decision to the Cavs on the road by just 3. Sometimes when a team is struggling a bit, it takes a good team coming into their building to get the juices flowing again. This has been the case with Orlando as they are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games vs teams with a winning percentage over .600. We look for a focused Magic team to come out the winner in tonight's battle.
