Randy’s Pick

The New York Knicks have been absolutely dreadful defensively through 2 games, and it's not a surprise they're underdogs here based on what they've shown us. However, let's not act like the Orlando Magic are lighting the world on fire, as they've had issues at both ends as well. Rough game based on what we've seen. If forced to pick, give me the Knicks and the free bucket.
