Tatum being (maybe) out can be chance to win.

If we're gonna steal one, it's gotta be here when Tatum is doubtful and Brown is still dealing with his knee issues. Regroup from Sunday and hopefully your role players show up and play like the ATL play-in game and not like game 1.

Orlando only needs a split. A win here, and the whole momentum changes. Vegas has Orlando winning at a bit better than 20%. Sounds about correct.

If there was ever a game for the Magic to steal, this is the one.

Gotta come out strong, and our role players need to contribute

If Tatum can't go, Hauser is the most likely to start, but it isn't written in ink. Horford could start, with Kornet having an outside chance as well. Mazzulla is unpredictable with this stuff.

Brown may be limited, so someone else from the Celtics bench might see some time tonight.

Score, pass to the open man, then shoot the freaking ball. Better see a major pep in the step of WCJ and JI and a bunch of offensive rebounds early.
