T.M. Selection: Orlando Magic.

I like the Orlando Magic to cover the spread against the Golden State Warriors in this game on Tuesday. The magic haven't looked great in their games lately but they have won 3/6 of their previous 6 games which is good for them considering how their year has gone. They have 2 really bad losses during that time but they also have 3 wins and a very close loss to the 76ers by only 2 points in OT. They even won their most recent game against the Thunder on their home court. I think the Magic will continue to play well on their home court here and I expect them to come out with their best effort in this game since they are playing against one of the best teams in the league this year in the Warriors and the warriors are even missing their star player for this game, Steph Curry. I think the absence of Curry is going to hurt them here and while I don't really think the Magic can win this game, I think they can still keep it close on their home court here. The Warriors haven't looked great in the games without Curry and I think they are going to continue to struggle until they can fully adjust to their game without him. They ended up losing the game to the Celtics that Curry went down in by 20+ points and they even lost their next game after that, dropping a game on their own home court to the Spurs who have had a terrible year. I think the Magic are catching the Warriors at a great time here and I think they will keep this game close. I like the Magic to cover the spread here.

T.M. Prediction: 112-109 Warriors.
