Can a growing Magic surprise Knicks back-to-back?
Content designed and provided by SportSight
The Orlando Magic receives the New York Knicks who are back-to-back, the day following their defeat on the floor of Miami. Orlando can, on paper, still claim the play-ins, while New York is on waivers to qualify directly for the NBA play-off.
It seems unlikely that Orlando will qualify for the play-ins in the Eastern Conference. There are almost five wins between the Magic, 13th, and Chicago, 10th and virtually last qualified. But this young team has progressed this season, it will play its part until the end and it is obviously far from winning there.
On the other hand, one might almost say that New York has everything to lose. In 5th place in the Eastern Conference, the Knicks are only two wins ahead of Brooklyn and Miami, which are growing at the end of the season.

Orlando Magic: news and form
For a team that we didn’t know what to expect at the start of the season, the Magic are good. The record, 10 games from the end of the regular season, is negative (30-43). Apart from its rather surprising series of six consecutive victories in December, the Magic will never have chained more than two successes. But we are talking regarding one of the youngest teams in the league and its progress is very interesting.
Jamahl Mosley’s men regularly hook up with a good team, there will have been the Heat, the Clippers, or the Wizards in the last game. And for good reason, the Magic has real advantages. He annoys many teams when he lines up two or three players over 2.13 m. Its offensive leader, Paulo Banchero, is an excellent rookie who already knows how to be clutch. And these young players have nothing more to lose at the end of the season.
After two victories once morest Washington and once morest the Clippers, separated by a narrow loss once morest the Lakers, the Magic will be confident tonight. He’ll also have the advantage of playing once morest a New York team tired from last night’s game, and once once more, that Magic is hungry.
New York Knicks: news and form
The Knicks thought they had folded their regular season with a 5th place validated without problem, but it is not so. Although favorites and on waivers for this 5th place in the Eastern Conference with two wins ahead of Brooklyn and Miami, the Knicks would do well to take this game in Orlando. Because the rest of the calendar promises to be interesting, with a match once morest Miami then Cleveland.
There is no urgency yet, the Knicks are playing well despite their last two defeats once morest the Wolves and the Heat. By insuring in the affordable games they have left to play, they might even qualify by losing once morest Miami. But you will have to be careful. We see that the margin that allows them to make the difference between a victory and a defeat is not so great.
Six players exceeded 10 points last night once morest Miami, which is a good sign. But the Heat’s defense of Randle, usually the leading scorer coming out of a 57-point game once morest Minnesota, upset New York’s plans. Orlando has arguments in this position as well. The bench did not bring enough, he will have to do better tonight to breathe the holders during this second game in two days.

The Magic, in their progression, might well take this game once morest a tired and under pressure Knicks. Floridians have good arguments in the game, especially inside. New York is back-to-back and the pressure of the next head-to-head with their direct competitors might play a trick on them tonight.
