After crumbling in the second half to the historically good Golden State Warriors on Thursday, the Orlando Magic have a quick turnaround in an important game against the New York Knicks. With the season slowly dwindling down, any win against an Eastern Conference team, especially on they could be fighting with for a playoff spot come April, is important. Following Stephen Curry's historical performance on Thursday, the Magic will need to tighten up their defensive issues if they want to notch a win in New York.
Game time is set for 7:30 PM at Madison Square Garden. TV coverage is being provided by Fox Sports Florida, and radio coverage on ESPN580 Orlando.
