Brooklyn at Orlando

Despite that 1-2 record, Brooklyn has talent. They have beaten the Knicks and lost the last game to the defending champion Heat. Brooklyn re-signed Deron Williams, Brook Lopez, Kris Humphries and Gerald Wallace. They also traded for Joe Johnson and added a handful of complementary players to vastly improve the bench and the team's playoffs prospects. They take on a 2-2 Orlando team that couldn't be more different. They are rebuilding following the departure of Dwight Howard and have lost two in a row. This is their third game in four nights and they come off a 15-point loss at Minnesota. And the Magic are 5-11 ATS in their last 16 games following a loss. Play Brooklyn. In addition, look for a defensive game. The Magic allow 93 points per game - good for No. 8 in the NBA as they slow the pace down. The UNDER is 7-2-1 in the Magic's last 10 against a team with a losing record. They are also 33-16-3 UNDER the total in their last 52 home games vs. a team with a road winning percentage of less than .400. The Nets can play that style at 15-5-1 UNDER the total in their last 21 road games. When these teams meet the UNDER is 14-4-1 in their last 19 meetings, including 16-5-1 UNDER the total in their last 22 meetings in Orlando. Play on Brooklyn and take the UNDER.
