This is a 10* COAST-TO-COAST DESTRUCTION on the Orlando Magic.

Golden State is just 3-5, and that includes going 0-4 on the road. The Warriors aren't scaring anybody these days.

They're once again overvalued here in my opinion as well. They're averaging 117.5 PPG, which ranks fourth, but they've been dismal defensively. They're most recently off the 116-109 loss at Miami. Tomorrow the Warriors have a much more difficult opponent at New Orleans.

The Magic though will be hoping to pull off an upset here at home against the reeling defending champs. Everyone loves kicking the champ when he's down.

The Magic are off a 116-108 road loss at red hot Oklahoma City. This is the opener of a seven-game home stand for Orlando, and I expect it to come out fired up here to try and get the stand started off on the "right foot."

I just don't trust Golden State on the road right now. I'm not calling for the outright upset, but I expect a really tight battle.

Grab the points, the play is the MAGIC.

Good luck, NP
