A very interesting New York Knicks team will look to get to .500 this Wednesday, as they take on the Orlando Magic at the Amway Center.
New York Knicks
Julius Randle went beast-mode in the Knicks last game, as he put up 44 points in an impressive victory over the Atlanta Hawks which brought the Knicks winning streak to 3. Julius Randle was a big reason for that last win and really has been one of the min catalysts to the success the Knicks have had this year.
Yes, no one thinks the Knicks are going to make a deep playoff run, but the fact that this team is just one game away from .500 in a brutally tough Atlantic division is a testament to how far this team has come in recent times and that only means good things for this huge Knicks fan base going into the future.
The biggest surprise for most NBA fans is the fact that the Knicks have the number one ranked defense in the entire league. That is the biggest factor in this teams’ success and they should be setup for another lockdown defensive performance against a Magic team they held to 84 points earlier in the year.
Orlando Magic
Things were looking decent enough for the Orlando Magic early in the year playing close to .500 basketball in a very winnable division, but the wheels have come off completely losing 8 of their last 10 games which has them currently positioned second to last in their division. It is no surprise that this team was completely shut down by the Knicks earlier in the year, as they have struggled with scoring all year only ranking 28th overall for total scoring.
This season was not all Orlando’s fault with the team being bit seriously by the injury bug starting with Markelle Fultz who looked primed for a breakout year. Aaron Gordon has also been sidelined in recent times as well as Jonathan Isaac, Al Farouq Aminu and Evan Fournier.
One of the few positives for Orlando in 2021 is the continued solid play of Cole Anthony who was taken in the draft last year, as it looks like he could have a nice career ahead of him averaging 11/4/4 this year on 26 minutes per game.
Free New York Knicks vs. Orlando Magic NBA Prediction:
The under for this game is going to be seriously low and I have much more confidence in the Knicks getting the job done here despite the under being the obvious play. The Knicks are a sneaky strong team and have a ton of motivation and chemistry and I think that is enough for them to make it 4 wins on the trot.
The Knicks strong defensive play does make me a little bit more willing to back this team in road games as well with defense traveling a lot better than offense does.
