Thursday night’s game against the Brooklyn Nets went as abysmally as Sixers fans could have dreamed, but few spots could be better for a bounce-back performance than facing Orlando tonight in the Sunshine State. The Magic sit at 18-50 on the season, last place in the Eastern Conference, although they have won two straight, including a 118-110 win over Minnesota Friday night.
As far as odds for tonight’s game, Philadelphia is currently listed as 13-point favorites. Hard to argue, after the Sixers won all three previous meetings between these two clubs, most recently a 123-110 win in Philadelphia in mid-January.
