The New Look Oklahoma City Thunder Take On The Orlando Magic
The New Look Oklahoma City Thunder Take On The Orlando MagicThe Oklahoma City Thunder has officially become a title contender in the Western Conference due to a blockbuster trade. The Orlando Magic hope that they can keep pace in the East as the two teams meet on Friday night.


BetPhoenix is the best online sportsbook to wager on the NBA and they have the latest odds on this and all other games on the schedule.

The Boston Celtics agreed to ship center Kendrick Perkins and guard Nate Robinson to the Oklahoma City Thunder for forward Jeff Green and big man Nenad Krsticand the Thunder got what they have been lacking for a very long time, a big man.

The Magic are off an embarrassing loss to the Kings. Dwight Howard had 31 points and 17 rebounds, but it wasn't enough against the Sacramento Kings, one of the worst teams in the league. The Magic, except for Howard, played as if they were in a fog after being off for almost a week because of All-Star Weekend. Hedo Turkoglu had 19 points and Jameer Nelson 15. The biggest problem was a lack of defense. They allowed the lowly Kings to shoot 52.5 percent from the field.

The Magic are 1-6-1 ATS in their last eight games against a team with a winning record and 6-13 ATS in their last 19 Friday games. The Thunder are 16-5 ATS in their last 21 games as a road underdog of 5.0-10.5, 18-7-2 ATS in their last 27 against the NBA Southeast and 20-8 ATS in their last 28 Friday games.

The Thunder will miss teammate Jeff Green, but the deal for Perkins will make the Thunder winners immediately. The presence of a big man on the inside will allow the Thunder to play well against teams like the Lakers, Spurs and the Magic. The Thunder win against the Magic and start a trek to the championship.
