Tonight’s Magic vs Knicks game will be a low-scoring affair and one we expect the Orlando Magic to win in the end. Orlando is red-hot of late, having won five straight games entering this Eastern Conference matchup. Against a Knicks team missing over half of its starting lineup, Orlando should be able to grab a sixth win in a row and make a statement that they are a team that should finish in the top-half of the Eastern Conference playoff picture.
