Boston has no incentive to push it, especially with several key contributors managing ailments. Both teams are playing a back-to-back, too. Defensive-minded Orlando will set the tone on that end of the court, preventing the visitors from getting into a rhythm. The Magic are also the slowest-paced NBA team and will find it easy to dictate the tempo at home. Boston has won 12 of its last 13, so losing momentum isn't on the visitors' minds heading into Wednesday's contest. I expect the C's to sacrifice a victory for health, especially considering their last two games are both against lottery-bound Charlotte.

Bet on the under!
