team. 41. Four times already this season, Golden State has scored at least 135 points while recording at least 35 assists — a feat we haven’t seen since the 1990-91 season, when Boston did it six times and Portland did it five. No other team has recorded any such games this season. Tuesday night, then, will offer a contrast when Utah visits. The Jazz have allowed a league-low 95.4 points per game and are known for slowing the pace down better than anyone. The Dubs, though, have cracked triple digits in their past 10 meetings with Utah and are averaging a wild 123.2 points per game at home, which would put them in range of the all-time record (Denver’s 129.8 PPG in 1981-82) if they maintained it over the course of a full season..

The Orlando Magic are at a loss for their poor home performances. They cannot quite say what it is.

The road? The Magic have rallied well on the road. Their 7-7 record should be good enough for them to stay in the Playoff hunt if they can string things together at home. That has been the trick.

Jeff Green said after practice Monday that perhaps the team enjoys being the underdog and having everyone against them in these opposing gym. The Magic get two winnable road games this week to test that theory.
