Detroit is an uncomfortable opponent for Orlando. The Magic have lost two out of three games to the Pistons this season and three out of four games last season. Will Jamal Mosley's team be able to break this tradition in the upcoming game?

The Magic still have a chance of making the playoffs, but it's theoretical. The team would need to win all their remaining games to be in the play-in zone, while their biggest rival, Chicago, would need to suffer five straight losses. That's a long shot, but Orlando doesn't appear to be giving up hope. The Magic have won four previous five games, beating opponents who are higher in the standings in the East - twice against Washington (122:112, 116:109), New York (111:106), and Brooklyn (119:106).
Detroit Pistons
The Pistons will remain the last team in the Eastern Conference at the end of the regular season. In 77 games, the team had only 16 wins. Their latest results also confirm their outsider status. Detroit comes into the game against Orlando with eight straight losses. It should be noted that the team played the season with an experimental roster, missing several key players at once.
Expert Betting Tips
Orlando is in great shape at the end of the regular season, beating even the more established teams. In their game against Detroit, the Magic, of course, are the clear favorites. Even Orlando's tradition of recent losses to the Pistons should not keep them from taking a big lead. As their long losing streak shows, Detroit doesn't have the tools to stop the Magic or any other team right now. We'll take Orlando's minus handicap and the total under. Detroit, without Bojan Bogdanovic, has slowed down considerably on offense, while the Magic have improved on defense from game to game.
