Thunder at Magic
Pick: Over 189.5
The Magic were thoroughly embarrassed by the Thunder the last time these two teams met in Oklahoma City on November 8th, as Orlando lost by 28. To cut the Magic some slack, Vince Carter, Rashard Lewis, and Ryan Anderson all were out for Orlando in that debacle. All three of those players are back for the Magic tonight, but the team is without point guard Jameer Nelson, who is out with a torn meniscus in his left knee. The Thunder, meanwhile, are coming off a 100-83 victory at Miami last night, as OKC fits into a nice OVER play tonight. Oklahoma City is 13-4 to the OVER since the start of last season playing on the road with no rest, and with this being a fourth game in five nights, don't expect much defense from the Thunder. The Magic will have plenty of rage tonight after the horrific loss at the Ford Center, and while the side may be a bit much, I'll take the OVER tonight.
