The Orlando Magic's mission to defend their Eastern Conference Championship win the NBA title begins tonight at Amway Arena, where they'll take on the Philadelphia 76ers, one of the three teams they KO'd in last year's playoffs en route to an NBA Finals berth. Both teams have changed, however, as only four of tonight's probable starters appeared in the starting lineup for that first-round playoff series last year. What hasn't changed is the singer of the national anthem, as Gina Marie Incandela will perform it tonight, as she did at every home game during last year's playoff run.
Predictably, the Sixers use their defeat at Orlando's hands as motivation. Check out this Tweet from Philadelphia center Sam Dalembert last night:
Just beat Orlando for ripping our hearts out last year!! @ROYALTIVEY [Royal Ivey] @TeamLou23 [Louis Williams] @AI9 [Andre Iguodala] @yungsmoove21 [Thaddeus Young]
Orlando has motivation of its own. The Magic are out to prove that last year's Finals appearance wasn't a fluke. We've linked to a number of NBA previews in the last few days, and while most of them pick Orlando to have another excellent season, very few have it going past the second round of the playoffs.
But redemption--for Philadelphia and Orlando--isn't the only narrative driving tonight's game. New Magic shooting guard Vince Carter, a Daytona Beach native, will make his regular-season debut for what amounts to his hometown crowd. To reduce distractions, he did not set any tickets aside for family and friends. I imagine most Magic fans will direct this focus for this particular game at Carter, which is felicitous, because Sun Sports said in a press release it would focus much of its cover on the new players, but "especially Central Florida's own, Vince Carter."
One of the other new guys, Ryan Anderson, will join Carter in the starting lineup at power forward. His presence allows the Magic to play their preferred style, with four three-point marksmen surrounding Dwight Howard in the middle. Anderson had a monstrous preseason, averaging 14 points in just 20.6 minutes per game, and connecting on 56.1% of his three-point attempts.
Philadelphia fans, for their part, will have their loyalties tested tonight: will they watch the new-look Sixers kick off the new season, or the defending champion Phillies try to win Game One of the World Series? Depressed Fan, a Sixers blog, might choose the latter option and watch the Sixers on TiVo.
The game tips at 7 PM. Stay tuned to 3QC for complete coverage, including Eddy's post-game and recap posts.

alright
So i have to work a game tonight so I’m taping this one. Hopefully nobody hits my cell up before I see the game. Anyway, does anybody know how well Jrue Holiday has looked in the preseason? Will he get serious pt tonight?
For those attending the game, have a blast. Don’t wake up with a voice tomorrow. Go Magic!

I'm sure Jrue will see minutes but it's Lou's show to run.

Princeton Offense
Is Philly really gonna run it this year? I know everybody says that it doesn’t req a true point, but the last two teams that Jordan coached had Gilbert Arenas and Jason Kidd. Although it might be fun watch Dalembert try to hit cutters from the high post…

Yes, the Sixers are going to run the Princeton.
For Arenas, it was perfect for him because he’s a scoring point.

REGULAR SEASON BABY! IT'S HERE!
GET SOME, MAGIC! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I’m so f’ing psyched about this season it’s not even funny.
I’ve laid off posting on here because it made me want the season even more and I’d have ended up with a hernia the size of a beachball from dealing with all the anticipation.
GO MAGIC!

I get to see Vince Carter and his stat line in 2 3QC fantasy leagues (PASPN, NBA/ESPN Roto) too :P
by derekk on Oct 28, 2009 4:15 PM EDT via mobile reply actions 0 recs
My fan keys:
1) Defense.
76ers still early in the process of learning their new offense, so they will want to keep creating fast tempo pace and getting a ton of transition and fast break points to make up for it (Probly always too tho with their athleticism). Magic need to show they have the best defense in the league, getting back early will be big. Brand is not in rhythm yet, so the biggest defensive assignments will be VC’s on Iggy an Barnes/MP on Young/Iggy as Dre left to POR.
2) Offensive chemistry, ball movement and recognizing the mismatches and hot hands.
SVG has justly focused on team defense more and should continue doing so, so the offense needs more gelling and learning to do. Talent and good shooters keep it going easy but I want to see the ball movement and passes that make great set plays and pick and roll actions, especially on the F spots mismatches and any mismatches in general. I think Dwight and Jameer have the most regular opportunity to score or create as Louis and Daly are no defenders and the pick and rolls are well runned to get Jameer free for action. Will be very interesting to see a great great defender in Iggy stack up against VC and how VC plays D too. Ryan I not better than Brand but unless Young switches over, Ryan will get a good offensive game with the offensive mismatch. Bass is more comparable to Brand, I hope to see him rebounding and defending really well down low.
by derekk on Oct 28, 2009 4:34 PM EDT via mobile reply actions 0 recs
Well, good post, but...
We’ll probly see Iggy guarding the PG on the perimeter alot if Jameer torches Lou too much, so it will be IMPERATIVE that MP is aware and makes good cuts to the hoop. Lou doesn’t have the size to challenge him @ the rim.
by pianolady on Oct 28, 2009 4:49 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Thx pianolady. I donno if they’d do that but it would be a great wrinkle to throw at the Magic. Also how Jrue does on defense against Meer and Jason will be interesting. I like that kid alot.

Lineup......
I really like this lineup we are throwing out there to start the game. One of things I am most interested in is what the rotation will be. I’m sure there will be quite of bit of experimenting. I think this lineup will definitely get us to an early lead though. Philly has some talent but lets start this season off right. Go Blue!!!

Rotation
Nelson/Williams
Carter/Redick
Pietrus/Barnes
Anderson/Bass
Howard/Gortat

He's currently two-thirds man, one-third amazing. Which, let's face it, is still a pretty good ratio.

He posted up Speights, Speights flopped fell to the floor.
On the sixers trip down the floor, Speights dunk “on” Howard and let out an excessive yell in his ear. Next Magic possession him and Speights had words, yet only Dwight got T’d.

I think the key for the Magic is the bench.
I read some of the comments and some astutely pointed out that many teams will be able to match the starters, but the difference will be the reserves. That’s really what will separate Orlando in games.

…especially against what I thought was a quality team in the Sixers who pushed us to the limit last year. It just shows how much better this team really is compared to last year, at least in comparison to how we matched up against this same team one year ago!

Team looks solid
Everyone came out a little tight, but they pulled it together.
Jason Williams looks crazy good, once he figured out not to do cross-court passes.
Dwight needs to chill. He can’t afford to get techs.
I like Bass more than I expected after the preseason. He hasn’t scored much, but he’s enough of a threat to draw defenders.
Gortat’s full speed tomahawk was sick.

not bad...
First quarter was a little disappointing. Team seemed to lose focus midway through the quarter.
I wasn’t a fan of RA getting only 1 shot.
5 turnovers in the first 6 minutes or so i believe.
1st quarter really was a great example of the Magic near their worst (i hope)
That said, they still won the quarter, and straight up obliterated Philly in the 2nd.

He's currently two-thirds man, one-third amazing. Which, let's face it, is still a pretty good ratio.

Their bench outscored ours 55-48
but our starters manhandled theirs. I was really impressed at the end of the third – all 10 Magic players had a +/- on the plus side, and all 76ers on the – side. Incredible 3 point shooting, once again – Barnes at 1-3 was the only one who made less than half his attempts. I’m also sure that if the game were tied going into the 4th, that Philly wouldn’t have gotten away with what they did.

also hurts to be without Delonte West.

Hey Important Question!!!
Why was Samuel Dalembert playing that game?! Didn’t he take a shot at Hedo or someone in game 6 of the playoffs last year? From what I remember a much worse shot than what Dwight gave for his PLAYOFF suspension? I remember being super pissed that Dalembert would only have to miss a regular season game for his cheap shot, does anyone have an update on this?

I donno if the defense is up to par to play them, actually the same to the Celtics. It’d be a battle of the benches unless one starts killing the other I think. I think Magic are much better suited to beat them. Rondo cant roam defend, Nelson is gonna hit shots. I really cant think of anyone at all who can remotely stop VC. Thats my biggest key there, then the big men battle down low.

Jackson doesn't seem the type to play the good soldier.
He might behave for a little while, but come adversity, that becomes a very volatile locker room.

Maybe for the chemistry, but on the floor playing? I really doubt it. He’s much taller than most of their small guards corp, he’s actually the best defender of the group if he’s focused (playing for a title), and LBJ would not have to be the only go to option if Shaq is too tired. Jax can hit 3’s and is very very versatile. I dont think he is too efficient but still… it’s a move I fear. I would totally love eating these words too, and if their chemistry blows up even more bc of a move like this backfiring that would obviously prove me wrong too. I donno if Id give the Cavs a paper title, but it’s scary good on paper.
