The New York Knicks have yet to get off the mark in the NBA this season. The Knicks will look to break that duck when they welcome the Orlando Magic to Madison Square Garden in their next game tonight. The Magic are also winless in their opening two games and have lost their last two encounters with the New York Knicks. Our prediction backs the home team for a comfortable victory.
The New York Knicks suffered a shock home defeat against the Philadelphia 76ers in their opening game. The Knicks edged the opening two quarters but surrendered their lead in the third following the Sixers' 11–0 run, eventually losing 106–100. On Friday, Mike Brown's team also went down 107–103 to the Boston Celtics.
Nevertheless, the defending champions enter this clash as favorites, having won their last two meetings with the Orlando Magic, including a 132–120 victory in the NBA Cup semi-finals last December. They have won six of their last eight NBA games at Madison Square Garden.
The Orlando Magic are also yet to register a win in the American top flight this season. They began their campaign with a 132–125 defeat at home against the Atlanta Hawks and fell 115–93 to the Minnesota Timberwolves in their second fixture.
The Magic also lost their final three away games against the Detroit Pistons in the first round of the playoffs last season and are likely struggling tonight against a New York Knicks side desperate to get their campaign on track.
