I'm not worried right now. We're up 11, KG has no points, yet we scored 51 in the 1st half. On top of that, we have 18 bench points to the Magic's 8.

I understand completely that didn't mean anything last time, and hopefully the C's doesn't let history repeat itself.

I think KG did fine defensively. Also, I wouldn't know it from looking at you guys that KG is tied with Gortat for the most rebounds in the game so far with 5, but there you go. 2 assists doesn't hurt, either. Clearly he seems active out there, and that's what counts. Offensively, he needs to stop hesitating when wide open; either shoot or drive.

Here's to a better 2nd half then last time.

If Orlando's poor form continues ... I see only three legitimate contenders.

The Celtics, the Lakers and the Cavaliers.

That's one big reason the loss down in Orlando was so painful.  The Magic are a flawed team.

Am I the only one thinking that Dwight should have worked on one or two moves this summer instead of going in Africa for NBA cares?

I am watching a championship team playing today.

I think you have to give the Nuggets and even the Jazz some credit.  They've both shown that they can play at a championship level this year, if only for stretches (same can be said of the Celtics).

I think Dallas could get to that next level if they make a move for an upgrade over Josh Howard.  Orlando and Atlanta are both capable of taking it to the next level to at least make the ECF.  You can never totally count out the Spurs, either.

I would consider them all outside contenders with little chance of winning a title.

Those teams are too flawed. They need everything to break their way just to have a chance of making the Finals.

we got a full lineup for the first time this year, and we are up 11 at the half to the magic, what more could you want? Fantastic!

[USG]

Foot on the gas pedal. Build the lead, don't let 'em back in it.

No excuse for any 4th quarter collapses tonight.

[BASS_THUMPER]

doris..ya lookin kinda tired but ill still holla at cha..

[USG]

Dwight Howard with the most awkward round of high fives and fist bumps ever.

[USG]

There we go KG.

I think KG needs more times to get into games now. Would explain the back-to-back phenomena mentioned earlier.Think of it like a starter vs. a reliever in baseball.

[BASS_THUMPER]

wow....kg!!

[4THQTR]

KG looked so bad on that oop...
