Coming off another uninspiring performance against the New York Knicks, the Orlando Magic look to go into the Christmas weekend on a high note against the Los Angeles Lakers.
As has been the case far to often last season, and now this season, the Magic came out flat and uninspired against the Knicks on Thursday night, easily getting beat by the current four seed in the Eastern Conference. The Magic seemingly refused to box anyone out, and had shots clanking off the rim left and right all night long. Their lack of urgency and want more often than not is cause for high concern for a team that has playoff aspirations.
Game time is set for 7:00 PM Eastern at Amway Center. The game can be seen on FoxSports Florida and heard on ESPN580 Orlando.
