Basketball Sports Betting Jan 24 – Indiana Pacers versus Orlando Magic

January 26th, 2012

Arriving from of a powerful – but losing – playoff effort last year versus the Bulls, the Pacers came roaring back to begin the 2011-2012 year. The squad is experiencing its best early record in the prior 8 years, but are still struggling versus the more adept squads in the league. Whilst they’re 11-4 to date, simply 4 of those victories are versus squads with records above .500.

With the Magic coming to visit on Tuesday, January 24, the Pacers will have a greater task on their hands, and they will need the home court advantage tonight. Indiana is unbeaten at home this year and will look to prolong their record to 6-0. If they are able to pull out a win, it will likely be the first time the squad has opened up a year with six straight home victories since the 2002-2003 year.

However the Orlando Magic are a fearsome adversary who are 11-5 on the year to date. And the recent past is all on Orlando’s side. The Orlando Magic have defeated the Pacers in Indiana in all the prior three competitions between the two. In fact, Orlando has won these matches on the road in Indianapolis by an average of 13 points. The most recent competition between the two was January 26, 2011.

The Pacers will also have to find a method to deal with Orlando Magic superstar Dwight Howard. Howard has headed the squad to an 11-3 record over Indiana, and he has put up double-doubles in each one of these games. Despite the challenges ahead for the Pacers, the sportsbook lists them as the -3 favorites to beat the Orlando Magic. The total is set at 182.5.

Both squads come into this game with a 7-3 record over their last ten games. The Pacers have a 5-0 home record to date, while the Orlando Magic are 5-3 on the road. Watch for Orlando to make a shockingly powerful showing after their disastrous 87-56 loss to the Boston Celtics a handful of days ago.
