Orlando Magic -3.5
Most of you may know that Orlando has lost four straight to Houston by an average of 13.3 points. However, those were Grant Hill-less and defenseless
Magic teams. Grant Hill is probable tonight, meaning he should play. With the addition of the recently acquired Steve Christie, this team now has the potential to hold Houston to 80 points, which is what they have been averaging in the last 4 games. Houston has fallen apart in the last two games since beating San Antonio, losing by an average of 16 points. Orlando comes off back 2 back wins beating Indiana and Detroit. Both games were close, within 2 points. However, I don't see this game being so close. Houston has to play tomorrow at New York and then have the weekend off before they meet Orlando again on Monday. Orlando on the otherhand has tomorrow off so should be playing with more energy knowing they have a day to rest before hosting Philly Saturday.
Orlando 101, Houston 90
