Magic was recently given a match that fans will remember for a long time. On March 8, the team arrived in Milwaukee and literally dismantled the Bucks — 130:91. Moreover, it was not an accidental outburst, but a very confident, systemic victory. From the first minutes, Magic set the pace and took the initiative pretty quickly. By the big break, the guests already had a solid advantage, and after the rest everything became even more obvious. The third quarter turned out to be especially impressive — it was there that Orlando brought the difference to almost thirty points. The team did a great job defensively, forcing the opponent to make mistakes, and then quickly turned the Bucks' losses into easy points in quick attacks. Milwaukee still couldn't find their rhythm. Paolo Bancero became the main hero of the match with 33 points. Orlando has 35 wins with 28 losses in the Eastern Conference standings.

The Cavaliers are also not far behind and are approaching the match after a landslide victory. On March 10, the team beat the Philadelphia 76ers 115-101 at home. The beginning of the meeting was quite calm and even cautious. Cleveland gradually groped the game and led by only one point after the first quarter — 19:18. However, by the break, the hosts were already in control of the situation, increasing the gap to 56:44. And then the third quarter happened — the very moment when the match finally went in the Cavaliers' direction. The difference grew to almost twenty-five points, and it became clear that a comeback by the guests was unlikely. Cleveland's strength that evening was evident in the depth of the lineup. The bench actively helped the starting five, the pace was high, and the defense did not allow Philadelphia to accelerate. The most notable player was James Harden— with 21 points and an important historical milestone of 29,000 career points. Cleveland feels very confident in the East standings, with 40 wins and 25 losses.
