Orlando at Milwaukee

The Magic have won 10 of the last 12 meetings between these two teams and they are in need of a win after losing two of their last three at home in close fashion in overtime. The Magic, like many NBA teams this season, have had their ups and downs, but they have been at their best on the road where they have gone 7-5 SU and 8-4 ATS thanks to a stifling defense that has allowed just over 90 points per game. Under Stan Van Gundy, the Magic are 112-87 ATS on the road. They are also 79-54 ATS under Van Gundy following a loss. Milwaukee has allowed 104 per game over their last five games and I think they will struggle mightily to contain Dwight Howard in this game. Milwaukee has no rest coming into this one and that spells trouble as this team is just 2-8 ATS in their last ten games playing without rest. Take the Magic.
