Nice preview. These are games we have to win. Atl and Cha are teams we cant lose to if we want to be in the playoffs. Its funny we can beat the top teams and yet we struggle with Atl and Cha. We have to take care of business tonight and put a beating on them. I think Dooling and Arroyo will be the key to willing this game. It will be their job to put the game away when the second unit comes on to the court...
I'm looking forward to the Howard/Okafor match up tonight. This will be the first time the two play each other, 100% healthy, in nearly two years. Hopefully, they both play up to their capabilities. It will be a tough game either way. They key to the game I think will be the play of Jameer Nelson.
Holy **** guys! In the first half, every single player who played for us scored a field goal and gotten an assist. All 10 who played; that's right, even Garrity.
wow what a great game dwight proved once again why he was the number 1 pick over emeka. i mean he had a good first half with like 11 and 9 but he exploded in the third quarter dropping 13 points and 12 rebounds in 12 minutes of play, amazing. he only played 29 minutes, had he played the 4th quarter, he would have become the first magic player in history to score 30 points and grab 30 rebounds in a game, amazing. like i said whoever won the emeka/dwight matchup, their team would win the game and i think i proved my point. now its time to look forward to the next game, memphis, the gasol-less memphis, this is a very winnable game and how we have been playing, we are the favorite, dwight needs to tear it up again for us to win. o btw, this was dwight's 7th career 20 rebound game and 4th career 20/20 game, 2nd this season EDIT: o yeah darko played excellent too, 14 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 4 blocks. on 7/12 shooting. he played 24 minutes, so now you can slowly see that darko is giving us more production and is getting more and more minutes each game
