<p>The Brooklny Nets rolled the Orlando Magic on Friday night, cruising to a 107-68 win.</p> <p>The <a href="https://www.netsdaily.com/" class="sbn-auto-link">Brooklyn Nets</a> dominated the <a href="https://www.orlandopinstripedpost.com/" class="sbn-auto-link">Orlando Magic</a> Friday night, leading all the way to a 107-68 victory. The Magic's starting five were better than they were in the loss to the <a href="https://www.canishoopus.com/" class="sbn-auto-link">Timberwolves</a>, but the result was no different as Orlando lost their third straight game.</p>
<p>The starting five combined for 35 points against Minnesota. They managed 50 on Friday night. <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/nba/players/150192/e-twaun-moore#stories_tab">ETwaun Moore </a>led the team, picking up 18 points on 7-of-15 shooting, including 4-of-6 on three-pointers. <span>Andrew Nicholson</span> had another 10 off the bench, but no one on the Magic was able to overcome the Nets' defensive effort. Orlando shot 42.9 percent from the floor, and only had eight free throw attempts, making four of them.</p>
<p>The Magic picked up 22 personal fouls, compared to 13 by the Nets. Brooklyn shot an even 50 percent, including 64 percent on free throws.</p>
<p>With the loss Orlando falls to 2-3. Their next game is another matchup with the Nets, this time at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.</p>

<p>The Magic look to put an end to their two game losing streak.</p> <p>The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.orlandopinstripedpost.com/">Orlando Magic</a> will look to put an end to their two game losing streak when they host the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.netsdaily.com/">Brooklyn Nets</a> Friday night.</p>
<p>After defeating the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.denverstiffs.com/">Denver Nuggets</a> and <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.brightsideofthesun.com/">Phoenix Suns</a> at home to start the season, the Magic have dropped road contests against the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.blogabull.com/">Chicago Bulls</a> and <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.canishoopus.com/">Minnesota Timberwolves</a>.</p>
<p>After starting the season with a victory over the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.raptorshq.com/">Toronto Raptors</a>, the Nets have been defeated by the Minnesota Timberwolves and <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.hothothoops.com/">Miami Heat</a>. The Nets blew a 22-point lead against the Timberwolves and were beaten by the Heat by 30, so they clearly have a bad taste in their mouth.</p>
<p>Both teams have been bothered by injuries. <span>Hedo Turkoglu</span> (hand) should be out about a month while <span>Jameer Nelson</span> (groin, hamstring) has missed the last three games. E'Twaun Moore continues to start in Nelson's place while <span>Josh McRoberts</span> replaced <span>DeQuan Jones</span> in the starting lineup Wednesday.</p>
<p><span>Gerald Wallace</span> (ankle) has missed the last two games for the Nets. Two-time former Magic wing <span>Keith Bogans</span> started in his place.</p>
