Both teams begin the day with identical 1-3 records though it could be argued one team deserves to have more W’s in the win the column and it’s not the Houston Rockets. While Houston finally broke through with a solid effort versus the Thunder the Magic have been in every contest they’ve played. An over ruled goal tending call cost them against Washington (87-88), the spectacular double overtime versus the Thunder (136-139) in a game where Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook combined for 91 points and they held their in Chicago (87-92). All tolled the Magic lost those 3 games by 9 points.
