Las Vegas - How does a team, Orlando, go from losing two games in Cleveland (97-83 and 96-86) to a GIGANTIC 38 point win (121-83) at home? Well, Paolo Banchero finally got it going and dropped 31 points in game three. Jalen Suggs collected 24 points after scoring ONLY nine in Cleveland. But the key to game three was the Magic's bench. In game two, the bench was able to mange only 21 points, but with a little home cooking, they EXPLODED for 45 points in game three. And the two guys most responsible were Cole Anthony and Markelle Fultz. In Cleveland, Cole had nothing, zero, a bagel, but bounced back with 10 points in Orlando. Markelle had one stinking point in Cleveland and collected 11 in game three at home. That's a bump from one to 21 points from just two guys. Expecting magic from Orlando's bench as the Magic even the series at two games apiece.

And gonna ride down to Texas and drop some cash on the Rangers over the Reds on the MLB board.
