Southeast-leading Magic to pay a visit to hapless Nets

Basketball Betting Lines

03/05/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Orlando Magic will shoot for their fourth straight win when they visit the lowly New Jersey Nets tonight at the IZOD Center.

Orlando made it three straight wins with a 117-90 victory over the Golden State Warriors Wednesday from Amway Arena. Dwight Howard posted 28 points and 12 rebounds for his league-leading 48th double-double of the season.

"It wasn't a hard game to play...our job is to get better going toward the playoffs," Howard said afterward. "We're playing a lot better basketball on both ends."

Howard currently leads the NBA in both rebounding and blocked shots and is trying to become the first player in league history to lead in those categories more than once.

Rashard Lewis had 17 points, Vince Carter added 15 and Jameer Nelson netted 13 points for the Southeast Division-leading Magic, who are two games ahead of the Atlanta Hawks in the standings.

The Magic, who are 18-14 as the guest this season, have won nine of their last 12 games and sit second in the Eastern Conference.

New Jersey has dropped two straight and six of seven games and will wrap up a three-game homestand Friday night. It fell to 0-2 on the residency following a 111-92 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday, as LeBron James totaled 26 points and 14 assists to lead the Cavs in that one.

Brook Lopez had 21 points and 14 rebounds while Terrence Williams scored a career-best 21 points for New Jersey, which saw its record fall to 6-54 on the season and is trying desperately to avoid finishing with the worst record in NBA history, set by the 1972-73 Philadelphia 76ers (9-73).

"Right now, [Cleveland] is the best team in the league and you can't spot them 20 points in the first quarter and then start playing and expect to win," said Nets coach Kiki Vandeweghe. "Basically, it was a pretty even game after that."

The Nets have been brutal at home this season, having posted a 3-27 mark. On the injury front, guard Courtney Lee (ankle) is questionable for Friday. Lee is averaging 12.2 ppg and has missed back-to-back contests.

Orlando will try to sweep the season series from New Jersey and has taken the first two meetings between the teams in 2009-10. It has won six of its last seven matchups with the Nets, while these two teams have split the last 10 games held at the Meadowlands.
