    Magic -1 vs the Bulls?

    Why are the Magic favored over the Bulls?

    He's gonna play but nobody knows how effective he'll be. He looked really bothered by his elbow and there's likely to be swelling now. He might be hesitant to take it to the hoop today, especially with Dwight Howard there. Dwight has a history of knocking Rose out of midair.

    Derrick Rose gave away that Rip Hamilton won't play tonight when he said: "We’ll definitely miss him tonight." #Bulls #Magic

    Rip Hamilton is very important to the Bulls, his presence can't be underestimated.

    Why the hell should the Bulls be favorites in Orlando?

    i dunno, past year or so the magic have been pretty bad against the true contenders in the NBA. theyre dominant against weak teams; their simple inside-out game based around dwight + kicking it out to open guys works there. but competitive teams that play hard defense expose the magic as having nobody to create their own shot, and the offense meanders and stagnates. unless dwight is hugely on his game and/or the rest of the team has a great shooting night from 3, i think the bulls will expose the magic offense tonight

    I'm passing on a side in this game and just playing the under. Good luck with whatever you decide to play.

    I wouldn't bet on the Bulls here, bad spot for them. An injured Drose, no Rip hamilton, no CJ Watson...and a hungry Magic team thats been playing well at home.

    magics are a good home team, they will win. i expected nelson to break out of his slump. and with drose playing injured not a good sign for bulls.

    It all depends if the Magic CAN shoot the 3 AND feed the ball to Howard, they got a chance. They live or die by the 3. Otherwise, I think the Bulls win.
