I tend to agree, but they just absolutely drilled the Spurs two nights ago with this same group so who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I thought Robinson was starting for Knicks at center with DJ being out. Hes a beast defensively.

Magic win 110-95

Knicks got their 1 win of the month out of the way, hopefully we take care of business.

Cannot lose this game to one of the worst teams in the league with the eventual champs coming up next. Must win.

I do not find this as a trap game. The Knicks is joyously on a high and will not be particrlyt, overly focussed. The Magic beat down a great team on the road and has every reason to prove that victory was real.

Frankly I like the Magic to cover more than just an out-right win. A 12-15 point victory would not surprise, but anything less than a 9 point victory would be out of expectation.

Still a late 3 to win by 1, I am fine with that.

Ehh we seem to be too relaxed coming into games vs. lottery teams hence all the losses against them.

Gordon all of a sudden completely changes his style of play and wants to showboat dribble dribble fade away over two defenders.

Knicks are indeed terrible, but they just came off an impressive win over SA where 5 of their players were in double digits. Augustine is not going to contain DSJ and Vucevic will rely more on skill than power this game.

I expect a win, but I don't expect a blow out. Hopefully I'm wrong.

Return to Orlando Magic
