NBA Expert Picks - 8 Nov 06
Seattle Supersonics and Orlando Magic will challenge tonight after the former team's close loss against Miami, last years champions. Orlando must win this game in order to show both its fans and the NBA community that they are actually there to play this season, looking for a play-off ticket. Seattle is going to encounter severe trouble stopping Dwight Howard, so a handicap of -6.5 on behalf of Orlando is a reasonable pick for tonight.
