The Magic are going to need to start taking advantage of their home games. They are currently 5-21, 1-12 at home and 4-9 on the road. We've had some home games that we should have won. Hopefully we can turn our home record around starting tonight against the Warriors.

Frankly, I see the main problem with Orlando being Lue. He has got to be the streakiest player that I have ever seen (has he ever made consecutive shots?) Everyone gives him credit because he "contained" AI that one year in the playoffs, but what happened to his D? Point guards eat him alive, and Lue doesn't distribute all that well anyway. The best teams have a vocal point guard, and a shooting guard that can back up the things that he says. I still laugh everytime I see that Tmac "lesson 1, lesson 2" commerical. "I'll be taking them to school every night." lol

He is unselfish and has excellent awareness. He likes to distribute the ball to other players when the defence closes him in. Could have been the next Magic Johnson.
Ha, yeah, maybe. He can distribute the ball like mad sometimes, but he wants to put up huge numbers in points too much. That is his whole problem. I forget who it was, but some player in the mid 90's used to where shoes with DBTH written on the heels, standing for Don't Believe The Hype. TMac has believed the hype too much, and that has been his downfall. I don't think the Magic's faults lie with Lue as much as they do with McGrady. Once he plays with enough control to get Giricek and Gooden consistent points(between 15 and 20 pts each), then I think the Magic will find it quite easy to win games.
It's tough to get Giricek 15-20 pts when he missed 25 out of his last 31 shots.(before the win tonight against Golden State) Tmac dishes the ball very well. He's very unselfish. He showed what he could do when his teammates make the shots with 12 assists tonight.
