These two teams have faced off twice so far this season, both with similar results.
In Round 1 back on Nov. 11, the road team Magic won in a big way, 115-89. Round 2 wasn’t much better for the Knickerbockers, who fell on the road, 131-117, on Nov. 18.
A lot of time has passed between these contests, but not much has changed as far as the Knicks looking any better. In fact, they look worse.
This six and a half-point spread could look quite conservative in Orlando’s favor when this is all said and done.
These two tip off at 7:30 p.m. ET on Tuesday in the Mecca of the basketball world, Madison Square Garden.

Free Orlando Magic vs. New York Knicks NBA Prediction: Knicks tank real good.
The Knicks have one goal the rest of this season: earn as many ping-pong balls as legally possible under the NBA’s current lottery structure. The Magic, on the other hand, remain just one game removed from the top eight seeds out East and are desperate to make their postseason return in 2019.
4* Free NBA Betting Pick: ORL ATS
The Magic have been playing good basketball as of late, having won eight of their last 10.
They’ll take that momentum into a game that should look an awful lot like the first two times they played the Knicks this season, at least as far as the score is concerned.
