The Orlando Magic will wrap-up their 4-game homestand tonight when the Oklahoma City Thunder come calling. For Orlando, it's a chance at redemption, as Oklahoma City dealt it an embarrassing, 28-point defeat just 10 days ago. The Thunder are 3-2 since then, including impressive road wins in San Antonio and in Miami. This team is clearly meant to be taken seriously.
The Magic? That's debatable. Sure, they're tied with 6 other teams for the league's 3rd-best record, but they have been a major disappointment so far, mainly due to their lackluster defensive play. They're 7th in point differential, but that's deceptive, given their soft early schedule. Through 11 games, they've only played 3 teams that have winning records as of now; they're 1-2 in such games, although it's noteworthy that the victory came over the Phoenix Suns, who own the best record in the league.
In any event, the Thunder and the Magic are a study in contrasts. The Thunder are a lottery team that's exceeding expectations; the Magic are an NBA Finalist that's coming up short. The Thunder have a consistent 9-man rotation, as the same starting lineup has appeared in all 11 games, with another 4 players coming off the bench in each; the Magic have been wracked by injuries, using 7 distinct starting lineups in 11 games, with their 8th coming tonight.
As hard as it might be to believe, the Thunder are winning with their defense; they're 3rd in defensive efficiency, and top-10 in three of the four factors. Their one glaring weakness on that end is their propensity to foul, as they're 29th out of 30 in free-throw ratio. There's a good chance the Thunder will force the Magic's offense to stall at times tonight, and when that happens, the Magic need to put their heads down and charge to the hole, hoping for a trip to the foul line. Ugly the game up. At this point, winning at all trumps winning pretty.
The game tips at 7. For those of you who plan to attend, get their early for your Vince Carter bobblehead.

OKC
is better than I expected, they are to be take seriously..
I like this lineup though..
If Dwight doesn’t give Kristic the business tonight I am going to be very disappointed. Is Dwight a center piece of championship team or a piece of a championship team?

It's not a dunk unless your hand makes contact with the rim. Yeah, I'm talkin' to you, "Superman..."
Seriously guys. Is anyone going early?

I am just wondering and would like to get the others' opinions...
….do any of you think the Magic give a shit they were steamrolled last week by the Cavs? Do you think they are pissed or just chalked it up to another loss and have moved on their merry ways? Do you think they have an extra motivation going to Boston on Friday to redeem themselves. Cleveland (a team we have owned for 4 years now) spanks us and goes on a tear and the Magic are just floating along game by game with no sense of urgency to establish themselves. I don’t know, it’s just been a week since that ass kicking and I’m officially pissed again. I’m beginning to dislike LeBron and his antics and I cant stand Mo Williams or Shaq. I just hope the Magic have the same fury as me. Thoughts anyone?
Spreading that Calgary Flames, Montreal Expos, The U, and Orlando Magic love.
My advice is relax, drink a beer, and enjoy the ride.

I think it's sort of psychological thing with the Magic...
After playing on the biggest stage of the season in the Finals last year, I believe it’s just a little harder for them to get “up” for regular season games.
I'd expect that if they WON the finals and were playing with the same squad.
But they didn’t win sh!t, and have some new players trying to fit in. So who knows

I feel your pain brotha . . .
I too get steamed when it seems like they’re blasé about big losses that have my stomach in knots.
To answer your question though, as a team I think it’s somewhere in between the two though it’s probably much closer to the 2nd option.
Honestly, while I think it’s necessary that teams learn how to shrug off losses and move on, it REALLY irks me when it SEEMS like the losses don’t bother them nearly as much as they bother me. It also sometimes APPEARS that other teams are more bothered by embarassing losses and carry a chip on their shoulders (ie Boston, Cleveland)
Hopefully, they’ll start showing some ECF championship pride if/when the roster is ever healthy and gets established!
Sigh . . . Now I need new AVATAR!
Exactly
I just dont like how they act as if they were lucky to make it that far and their opponents like the Cavs and Cs. You earned every bit of that Eastern Conference championship, so act like you are the East champs when you have teams that come into your house and treat you like you lucked into it. That’s my feeling. The Cavs and Cs are jacked up at the fact we won, they don’t respect us and as for the Cavs they beat the shit out of us to further evidence the fact. We’ll see Friday I guess.
Spreading that Calgary Flames, Montreal Expos, The U, and Orlando Magic love.
Cavs may have won but that was without a Magic team at full-strength or relative to it.

Be interesting to see how the offense is running without Jameer handling the ball
Is Gortart back for this?

Also I think J-Will will be as smooth as White Chocolate! Wish I was there would like a VC Bobblehead, only question is this: Does it settle for J’s or will it drive up the middle, without stepping on someone’s foot, and get injured?
j/k I love VC, but it’s time to toughen up on the Magic buddy!

Dwight is going for 25 and 15 w/ 4 blocks. Barnes will shoot above his 20% average from 3-point. Magic by 7.
hope so.
We need Dwight to play up to his ability.. He will be doing some heavy lifting with Jameer out..
I don’t think Dwight uses his quickness enough on Offense.

You know, he has to keep shooting.
And he’s a 33% shooter, so you know he’s going to get back to that some day.
I mean, he doesn’t have to shoot MUCH — just enough that the OKC defense has to guard him out there. But he has to shoot.
He's currently two-thirds man, one-third amazing. Which, let's face it, is still a pretty good ratio.
Magic are 12 point favorites
…with an over/under of 196.

Nice quick start so far
I think that “shot” from MP was more of a pass he knew he wasnt going to make that one.
According to Yahoo Sports, Peaches has an assist. Was there another play where he could have garnered an assist?
NBA Championship or bust in '09-10!!!! GO MAGIC!!!!
nba.com has him as a missed shot
he threw the cross court pass to jason williams i believe

Hmmm...a lot lot more activity on here tonight...as opposed to Monday...
LOL…What’s the reason for that?
Howard has been pretty active so far...
A good sign. I hope he can stay out of foul trouble.
When he's active the Thunder can't beat the Magic

All right, now let's just try not to allow any points.

A big scorer off the bench. Ryan’s got that ability — scoring is what he does.
He's currently two-thirds man, one-third amazing. Which, let's face it, is still a pretty good ratio.
Anderson's become one of my favorite players.
But that’s only because he’s white and I’m a dirty racist. Sorry, I got into an argument about Steve Nash earlier.

Does anyone think they will challenge the Magic for the Southeast division title?…or is this just a hot streak?
it's a hot streak
that’s what I keep telling myself, anyway

No way, I think this is legit.
Josh Smith has taken that next step as a player, just look at his numbers. Crawford has been excellent, too.

I don't know, I still think it's way too early to say.
But if Atlanta keeps playing the way they’re playing, we might have to discuss them as a threat. The Hawks point differential for the season is +7.6, which is second behind the Boston Celtics.

I think Bass is getting the cold shoulder as Ryan just simply fits in better with the Magic and this matchup OKC team. Like Guokas said tho, I would say Bass excels playing backup C, and for tougher opposing PF matchups Bass would be used there. Theres gonna be some games where Ryan doesnt play at all so Bass does, or Lewis goes 3 for one/both of them, but I think Ryan may get more nods than Bass in the end for his skill set.
I guess the refs feel like a 30 point lead is punishment enough for OKC.

Nobody beats the Wiz!
Used to be a store by that name. . . I will assume that it had nothing to do with basketball though. . .

Dios no me ama. God doesn't love me. It still makes me laugh now and then.

OKC outscores Magic 36-20 in the fourth
Not a good way to end an otherwise really good first three quarters by the Magic.

Yall are gonna have to watch this play Brandon Jennings on the highlights. That’s both great and strange a play you will ever see.
No mistakes in the tango, darling. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....

Good win, I love where this team is at right now considering how badly injured we've been this early in the season
Good night, Party’s at Lil Penny’s.

It's from the Simpsons. The Bumblebee Man said it, and I thought it was hilarious. It means God doesn't love me.

That's the J-Will difference
So far this season his assist to turnover ratio is roughly 5 to 1, compared to about 2 to 1 for Jameer. He’s not a big scorer, but he seems to be taking care of the ball like it’s gold.

That's all we need from Williams
…I’m not concerned about his scoring. If he can have a decent AST/TO ratio every game, the Magic should be in good shape.
Tonight he had a 5/1 AST/TO ratio, just like his average for the season.
Nice job by JWill.

I think he just plain takes the game more seriously than Jameer
At least this year, I’m not talking about last season

Did Bass just become our third center?
That’s where he played last game, with no Gortat; but tonight also he played center instead of forward.

He's capable of playing center
…just depends on how SVG feels with the matchups.

I think he played some center in Dallas
He doesn’t have the typical height of a center, but he’s not afraid of playing it.

Right, but I'm just wondering. . .
Is he primarily backup center now, or is that just how the two games with all forwards accounted for have played out?

It's all based on matchups.
Personally, I think he’s more comfortable playing center than he is playing power forward.

Jameer had a few good games this season
..but I agree with you, he wasn’t very consistent.
Williams has always been a pass-first point guard, while Jameer isn’t the traditional pass-first PG. He can really score in a hurry, though, and give the team a lift when his shot is on.
