How much do the Warriors care about this game on a "soft" Thursday against a bad team? Draymond Green has voiced the difficulty of being motivated in spots like this.
The Warriors are 0-4, both straight up and ATS on the road this season. The Magic are 2-0 ATS at home, same sample size, but Cleveland is the only other undefeated ATS home team. The Magic aren't good, but they will be more motivated and have 9 points to work with against a Warriors team that is having a hard time caring and not even beating bad teams outright. Rookie Paolo Banchero has been playing well, and I see the young Magic covering.
