Magic vs 76ers NBA Preview
The Magic were decent on the road last season, 10-10 ATS as a favorite, but they have struggled mightily in Jamahl Mosley’s tenure overall.
The Magic offense has been absolutely atrocious so far this season — again— but this handicap is more about the Sixers.
Without Joel Embiid, the Sixers play with verve and energy. They look like a good team with capable young players.
However, with Joel Embiid on the floor through the early season, they are -21.2 per 100 possessions.
With Embiid on the bench after his 20 minutes, they are 17.4 in net rating.
Embiid is listed as out for this one so he can play on the second half of the back-to-back and trash the Wizards tomorrow.
The Sixers have big wings to defend the Magic creators, and they have better shooters.
I’ll back the Sixers at home on Monday night.
