Orlando has terrorized the Western Conference on their current road swing, going through the Spurs and Kings earlier in the week and besting the Lakers 109-103 last night at the Staples Center. The Magic got 28 points and eight assists from point man Jameer Nelson, as well as 25 points and 20 boards (eight of the offensive variety) from Dwight Howard.

If Orlando (32-8) can beat the Nuggets, they will return home to face Boston next Thursday night having won nine of their last 10 games and sporting at least an eight game lead in the Southeast division. The Magic are averaging 103.6 points per game away from home after last night's showing in LA, a tally that has them ranked third in the league (road scoring average).

Denver, like Orlando, has been playing a quality brand of basketball all season long. The Nuggets overcame the Suns 119-113 in overtime on Thursday evening to move their record to 27-13 and give them a 2.5 game lead over the Blazers in the Northwest division.

Many people felt that the absence of Carmelo Anthony from the Denver lineup would equal doom for George Karl's team; however, Anthony's teammates have stepped up and the club is now 3-1 without his services. Denver is 16-5 at home this season and they have won eight of their last 10 games by an average of 7.5 per contest. The Nuggets also rank fifth in the league in home scoring average at 106.5 per game.

NBA Picks Betting Trend: The Over is 7-3 in Orlando's last 10 games as a road underdog with a total between 205 and 210.
