Orlando Magic: Pick 4-8

The Magic got off to a 6-2 start for the season, turning some heads along the way. Since then, they’ve won just twelve games in over four months.

On paper the Magic have the most talent of the other teams on this list. Nikola Vucevic, Bismack Biyombo and Terrence Ross are all capable players. Also, the talented Aaron Gordon hasn’t dressed since January 27th but is expected to join the team after the break.

If I had to bet on a team to make a 2017 Miami Heat-esque playoff run, it’d be the Magic. They’ve shown they can win early in the season, and they could possibly do it again.
