The matchup against Orlando is a tough one; when the Orlando Magic are on the road, they have allowed the least points per game in the league to the opposing team's starting PFs over the last 10 games (15.1).The Cleveland Cavaliers will likely suffer a drop-off in plays in this contest from squaring off against the most sluggish tempo road offense in the NBA this year (the Orlando Magic).Offensive rebounds retain possession and generate added chances for scoring and assists, but the Cleveland Cavaliers rank 8thworst in in the NBA while at home with a mere 10.3 offensive rebounds per game this year.Over the last 10 games when they have the home court advantage, opposing starting PFs have attempted 2.8 free throws per game (3rd-lowest in the NBA) vs. the Magic, making it tough to draw fouls.
