Brooklyn Nets at Orlando Magic odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Tuesday’s Brooklyn Nets at Orlando Magic odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Brooklyn Nets (35-33) go for their fourth straight win Tuesday as they visit the Orlando Magic (18-51). Tip-off is 7 p.m. ET at Amway Center. Below, we look at the Nets vs. Magic odds and lines, and make our expert NBA picks, predictions and bets.

The Nets, after losing four games in a row, are riding a three-game winning streak. PG Kyrie Irving, only eligible to play in road games (excluding Toronto), averaged 30.9 points per game in his last seven appearances. The Nets are in eighth place in the Eastern Conference, which would make them part of the Play-In Tournament to determine the final two seeds of the conference. They are four games behind the sixth-place Cleveland Cavaliers with 14 games left on the schedule.

The Magic are in last place in the East and are tied for the second-fewest wins in the NBA. However, they have won two of their last three games and are 5-4 in their last nine.

Nets at Magic odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Nets 119, Magic 106

Money line

PASS.

The Magic have the worst home record in the NBA at 8-24 and the Nets are playing well right now. Betting the Magic (+380) to win is just a bad bet and betting the Nets (-540) isn’t worth the price.

The only way to bet the Nets on the money line to make any sense is to include it in a parlay bet.

Against the spread

The Nets have covered the spread four times in their last 10 games but are 20-15-1 ATS on the road.

However, the Magic are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games and have covered the spread in four consecutive games. They are only 12-20 ATS at home this season.

The streak of covering the spread ends for the Magic Tuesday. Take the NETS -10.5 (-107).

Over/Under

The last six games for the Magic have not gone Over 230 points, as have eight of the last nine.

For the Nets, only two of the last seven have had totals of more than 230.

Take UNDER 230.5 (-107).

Brooklyn Nets at Orlando Magic odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Wednesday’s Brooklyn Nets at Orlando Magic odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Brooklyn Nets (7-4) travel to Amway Center Wednesday to take on the Orlando Magic (3-8). Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Nets at Magic odds and lines, and make our expert NBA picks, predictions and bets.

The Nets were destroyed by Chicago in their last outing despite entering on a five-game win streak.

Brooklyn ended up losing by 23. However, the Nets have won five of their last six. The Nets are led by former MVPs, Kevin Durant and James Harden, both of which averaged 26.9 points per game (PPG) last season. They’re respectively at 29.5 PPG and 18.3 PPG.

The Nets will be taking on a rising star in PG Cole Anthony, the second-year guard that’s propelled the Magic’s offense in most of their games. The Magic are still without their best player PF Jonathan Isaac, relying heavily on C Mo Bamba in the frontcourt.

Nets at Magic odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Nets 110, Magic 102

Money line

PASS on the Magic at +310.

No team in the NBA right now deserves to be given a -410 right now, so stay far away from the Nets’ money line. Consider the Magic, but if you like Orlando, head down to take them on the points.

Against the spread

“LEAN” to the MAGIC +9.5 (-122) as the home underdog should be able to hang with the Nets. Given Bamba and Wendell Carter Jr.‘s length, some of the two should be able to defend Durant with some success.

With SF Franz Wagner and PG Jalen Suggs both having shown their potential, the Magic are ranked 25th in offensive rating and 26th in defensive rating, not horrible spots for one of the worst teams in the East.

This is also a bet against the Nets.

It did win five straight at one point, but Brooklyn is just 3-2 on the road. The Nets rank 19th in offensive rating so, while Durant has been amazing, they haven’t figured it out as a team.

Over/Under

BET the OVER 209.5 (-110) as Brooklyn just has too much talent. Believe it or not, the Magic actually have played more to the Over this season.

With the Under hitting at more than a 55 percent rate, the Magic are 6-5 O/U. With Suggs, Anthony and Wagner, the Magic should manage to get up and down the court despite ranking 25th in pace.

The Nets are 13th in pace and should manage to impose their will on Orlando. If it’s the Nets pace, the Magic will have to keep up with Durant and Harden, meaning it could be both a long night and a high-scoring one.

Nets at Magic: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Nets 119, Magic 102

Money line (ML)

PASS on this money line as Nets (-550) is just too big of a risk despite how likely they are to win this game.

Brooklyn has won 14 of their last 15 games so instead take a look at the point spread as it offers more value on the Nets.

Play our new free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now!

Against the spread (ATS)

NETS -10.5 (-110) is our play here as Brooklyn has covered the spread in 12 of their last 15 games.

Kyrie Irving is scheduled to return in this game, making the Nets incredibly dangerous on offense, even without Kevin Durant in the lineup. This is arguably the best team in the NBA and can outscore anyone on any night.

Orlando is 4-1-1 ATS in their last six games, but it doesn’t have the offensive firepower to stay close with the Nets.

Look for this to be a blowout early and for the Nets to ultimately win by double digits. It would not be a surprise at all if the margin of victory in this game was near 20 points.

Over/Under (O/U)

UNDER 223.5 (-110) is our play here and that is rare considering this game will feature the No. 1 ranked scoring offense in the Brooklyn Nets.

The Nets are averaging 120.6 points per game this season, with the Over hitting in 14 of 19 road games.

However, the Orlando offense just isn’t very talented and they will struggle to keep pace and “push” the Nets in this game.

The Magic currently have the second-worst offense in the NBA, scoring just 104.3 points per game.

Look for them to come in around that mark again on Friday, which should lead to the Under hitting at the Amway Center.
