    Huge size advantage, as only two bench guys they got are Kyle Oquinn and Dequan Jones who combine for 6 pts, and Jones their only big man off the bench is only 6 10. Memphis will pound them inside all day and wear them out, and Magic will play as slow of the tempo as they can with only 7. What you think? And Magic starting 5 only got 2 starters in Vucevic and Afflalo but Vucevic will get smothered by Gasol and Randolph and Allen and Prince will shut down Afflalo, this might be 100 to 68 type of game.

    Well logically yes. But, this is the nba. "Amazing" tends tohappen in those games with a depleted team. Logically they should score about 70 points though yeah.

      Orlando has no one who can create his own shot, and not a single pg so pts will be at a premium to say the least

              Thought about the under, but with Memphis clicking on offense and the Magic flailing on defense these days, the spread seemed like the safer deal.

              Result shouldn't be much different than the game the Magic played in Philly a few weeks back...

              As for "going all in", I wouldn't advise it (amazing does happen), but it's hard to see the Magic putting up much of a fight in this one.

              Good luck.

                I believe UNDER is the play, it moved from 191 down to 186, Orlando is having a tough time, and now their roster is even worse. If they can manage a little D against Memphis, this game will go under easily.
                I have 2 units riding on under 186, wish I woulda found this one when the line was 188.

                  Memphis is in no mans land. They ar in no position to beat any team by 14 points

                    I agree, Its hard to beat any team by 14pts, especially in the NBA when if they are up 25 at the end of the 3rd, they throw in the 'bench warmers' and anything can happen. I will never play a spread that is that high, they dont care if they win by 15 or 13, or 20 or 10. They just want to win.

                      true, but 7 vs a FULL TEAM is hard to do....

                      and the 7 they have playing some of them dont get PT much at all. and also 7 people is too low for a rotation to work, the players will be tired and prolly in foul trouble.

                      i see mem 102-78

                        You guys do realize thats Orl we are talking about right? They lost their last 3 with having Reddick, Nelson, Smith and McRoberts by 15 at Dallas (who plays 0 defense), at HOME vs BOBCATS (1a when it comes to worst team with orl) and 32 at home to Atlanta (I know no body here trusts atl any more than they do Memphis especially when Atl was on the road and Memphis is at home). Don't overthink this. My only fear is that they will beat them so bad that over my cover at the end but not likely. This should be over by halftime

                          I'm with you on this. I think 78 is being generous on your part. They will get smothered inside, Vucevic only big guy will get worn down, and they have absolutely no shooters. Reddick and Nelson were their best shooters, afflalo will only hit a wide open 3 and that's not always. Good luck getting wide open anything in this game though having nothing inside and no pg to set you up at all.

                                  You can safely add Bobcats to that even though on paper bobcats got Way more talent

                                          I don't see the score getting any closer when Memphis puts their subs in, going to be fresh bench players vs starting bench players

                                            Memphis knows they're going up against a bunch of scrubs. Think they'll be giving a lot of effort?
