Dwight Howard was fantastic (22 points, 17 rebounds, three assists, five turnovers, four blocks and a steal), moving his feet and protecting the rim (showing, actual blocks, good closeouts, smart contact with arms fully raised), but this was a true team effort.

Everyone dug in, and the Hawks didn't have an answer. Sure, some of the jumpers that fell in that first half dried up, but every screen and roll was met with menace, any bit of penetration was quickly made up for by the Magic D, and the result was a 25-point second half. 25 points. And these are the Hawks we're talking about.
