Result:
WIN

The Orlando Magic are bringing it down the stretch as they are 18-5 over their last 23 games. They are off a loss and, during this stretch, they are a perfect 4-0 SU & ATS, so expect a motivated outing vs the Spurs here. San Antonio has done well of late without Tony Parker, but playing Orlando against a motivated Magic team is no time to be without your star. The Spurs are just 14-17 ATS on the road this season. The Spurs are 1-8 ATS this season on the road when coming off a win. They have covered eight straight, but they have really struggled against the NBA's best where they are just 9-21 ATS in their last 30 vs a team with a winning percentage of over .600. I like the Magic to win big here. I also like the OVER. This total is set low. Orlando averages 104 points per game at home.  San Antonio plays very good defense, but they will have trouble keeping the Magic down here. Orlando has scored 109+ in five of their last eight games. San Antonio's defense has held nine straight opponents to double-digits, but that was against the likes of some pretty bad teams including New Orleans, New York, Minnesota and the Clippers. When they faced high-flying Phoenix a couple of weeks ago, they allowed 113. I like the Magic and the OVER here.
