There is nothing like a pair of huge consecutive upsets to move a line out of where it should be. When you look at the overall body of work this season by Orlando, it certainly doesn't merit such a line here. Memphis hasn't exactly been on the skids themselves, as the Grizzlies have gone 13-4 over their last 17 games. They have also been outstanding on the defensive end in holding 14 of their last 15 opponents to under 100 points. That is very telling as the Magic are just 9-24-1 ATS this season when they fail to get to the 100-point mark, and I like the chances of that happening tonight. The Magic are also having a hard time vs. teams from the West, as they are just 2-9 ATS in their last 11. Lay the bucket on Memphis.
