Rogers 10* NBA Coach's Clinic
(NBA) Orlando vs. New York,
Point Spread: -6.00 | -105.00 New York (Home)
Result: Loss
The New York Knicks will host the Orlando Magic tonight, looking to snap a five game losing streak. They could catch a break here as the Magic play on back-to-back nights after losing in Toronto last night. Orlando has lost four of five on the road, with the only win coming against the Sixers. This looks like a good spot for the home team.


Here are my keys to the game:

1. Fatigue - This isn't just Orlando's second game in as many night's, it's also the third game in four night's for the Magic. The nature of last night's loss north of the border could also be a tough one to overcome mentally.

2. Carmelo Anthony - He dropped 44 points on Orlando in the last meeting between these two teams, and while he's struggled in Phil Jackson's offense so far, it's only a matter of time before the shots start to fall.

3. X-Factor - The Knicks have won eight of the last nine in this series, and they have covered the spread in all eight of those victories.

Selection: This is a play on the New York Knicks (10*)
