Cavs vs. Magic Picks & Prediction

1* Free Wiseguy Play on Cavs/Magic over

*All picks are based on situations, trends, statistics and injuries among many other factors*

Friday NBA Free play. My selection is on the 'under' between Cleveland and Orlando at 7 pm et on Friday.

Game 5 of this series cruised 'over' the total but I look for a different story to unfold as the scene shifts back to Orlando for Game 6 on Friday. The pace wasn't necessarily there for a relatively high-scoring contest on Tuesday. In fact, the Magic got off only 78 field goal attempts - the third time in this series they've been held to 80 or less. On the flip side, Orlando has held 12 straight opponents to 88 or fewer field goal attempts and six straight to 38 or fewer made field goals. Note that the 'under' is 27-17 in the Cavaliers last 44 games as a road underdog of six points or less including a 9-6 record in that situation this season. The 'under' is also a long-term 67-49 with Cleveland coming off an 'over' result including a 22-20 mark this season. Orlando has seen the 'under' go 17-11 as a home favorite this season. The 'under' is also 45-37 in the Magic's last 82 contests when seeking revenge for a road loss against an opponent including a 17-10 record in that situation this season. Take the under.
