Surging Magic continue push towards postseason, visit Wizards

Basketball Betting Lines

03/13/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The lowly Washington Wizards will continue playing out the string tonight when they host Eastern Conference power Orlando.

The Wizards lost their sixth straight game last night in Auburn Hills when Will Bynum provided a spark with a career- best 20 assists, helping the Detroit Pistons beat Washington, 101-87.

Andray Blatche led all scorers with 23 points to go with 10 rebounds to lead the Wizards, who have also dropped six straight to the Pistons. Al Thornton racked up 16 points and six boards and Randy Foye added 11 points with eight assists.

"It's tough because you do have guys that are going out there and competing," said Wizards coach Flip Saunders. "Mental mistakes are leading to stupid, mental mistakes and what happens is they emotionally wear you down, especially, as you well know, we don't have a big margin of error with our guys."

The Magic, meanwhile, continue to roll and lead the Southeast Division by four games over Atlanta after Vince Carter scored 23 points on Thursday as Orlando nearly doubled-up Chicago in the first half en route to a 111-82 drubbing of the Bulls at Amway Arena.

Most of Orlando's starters played limited minutes due to the game being a 32- point blowout by halftime.

Matt Barnes ended with 14 points, Brandon Bass had 13 with eight rebounds and Dwight Howard 12 and six for the Magic, who shot 55.1 percent from the field to cruise to their seventh straight win.

"Our defense has really picked up," Howard admitted. "Hopefully we'll continue to do that. And also stay humble while doing that.

A triumph tonight would give Orlando eight straight wins for the first time since April of 2006, but Washington has surprisingly won two straight in the series after dropping the previous five meetings.
