Pick 'n' Roll: Thursday's best NBA bets
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Philadelphia 76ers at Orlando Magic (-5.5, 191.5)

The 76ers haven't played well enough to match their preseason hype, but they look like a team eager to improve. The acquisition of Elton Brand is paying dividends for the Sixers with the former Dukie averaging nearly 19 points and 15 rebounds per game. Philadelphia should start playing better once point guard Andre Miller shakes off some early season rust.

When Miller’s playing his best he finds open shooters and cutters heading to the hoop. Don’t be scare off of Philly’s 31-point second half against the Hawks on Saturday night. Atlanta is a much better defensive team than Orlando.

The Magic are capable of putting up some big numbers themselves too. Dwight Howard is arguably the most powerful player in the league.

"He is the strongest guy I've ever played against,” Kobe Bryant said about his Team USA teammate.

Howard had 22 points, 15 boards and 5 blocks Monday against the Bulls. Philly center Samuel Dalembert is a good defender but he’ll have trouble matching Howard strength. Look for both clubs to shoot a high percentage and finished above the total.

Pick: Over
