Orlando Magic vs Brooklyn Nets Prediction: will the Nets finally manage to beat the Floridians?

Prediction for the NBA match which will take place on December 29. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Orlando Magic

The Magic have a long home series, and the meeting with Brooklyn will be the seventh consecutive home game for Jamal Mosley's team. The level of opponents in this stretch was high, and Orlando can't count on Paolo Banquero and Franz Wagner yet, which is why they lost more than they won. Orlando lost twice to New York (91:100 and 85:108), Oklahoma (99:105) and Miami (88:89), while beating the same Heat (121:114) and even Boston (108:104).

Considering, for example, the victory over Boston, it is worth recognizing that, in general, Orlando is coping with difficulties quite well. The tournament position also allows the Magic to misfire so far. The team from Florida is fourth in the East with a 19-14 balance.

Brooklyn

The Nets had a back-and-forth game ahead of their road trip to Orlando. And in the first part of it, the team unexpectedly outplayed visiting Milwaukee, playing perhaps their best game of the season, 111:105. The next day, Brooklyn failed to consolidate its success - home defeat from San Antonio 87:96.

In general, Brooklyn in some games shows that it is potentially a playoff-level team. However, for now, the Nets are not able to reach their potential at the distance due to the youth of the roster and only a quarter of the championship with a new head coach.

Expert Betting Tips

Orlando has one of the best defenses of the season, allowing just over 103 points per game on average. Brooklyn, for example, as shown in the previous two games - against Milwaukee and San Antonio, is also progressing in defense. Accordingly, we'll bet on a lower total in the upcoming match. It won't be a surprise if both teams don't even reach the 100-point mark in the end.
