Orlando at Chicago

The Orlando Magic have navigated through their first two games, in a new era that no longer includes Dwight Howard. They will have to be on their game tonight, as they head to Chicago to take on the Bulls. It won't just be Howard missing from action tonight, the Magic will be without the services of Hedo Turkoglu out with a broken hand. Jameer Nelson is likely sidelined as well. The Bulls coach Tom Thibedeau sent an early message to his team in a lackluster loss to the Hornets 89-82, as he sat three starters in the fourth quarter. I look for the Bulls to respond tonight. Carlos Boozer scored 23.3 points per game last year vs. the Magic and without the big guy in the middle to disrupt him he could be in for a bigger game tonight. The Bulls have come up big after a loss now at 39-16-2 ATS in their last 57. Play on Chicago.
