The matchup against Orlando is a tough one for shot attempts from downtown; when the Magic are away from home, opposing starting PGs have totaled the 3rd-least three attempts per game in the league this year (4.9).The Philadelphia 76ers have played at the 6th-slowest pace-of-play in the NBA on their home court since the start of last season.The Philadelphia 76ers will likely experience a decrease in possessions today from sharing the court with the 2nd-least up-tempo pace-of-play team in the NBA since the start of last season (the Magic).The 76ers rank as the 9th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA since the start of last season (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore reduce extra opportunities for scoring and assists).This year when they have the home court advantage, the opposing team's starting PGs have attempted 2.2 foul shots per game (3rd-lowest in the league) against the Magic, finding it difficult to get to the charity stripe.
