Tonight's Game: Orlando Magic at Milwaukee Bucks - Update: Dwight Howard, Rashard Lewis, Hedo Turkoglu, J.J. Redick Out

Orlando Magic at Milwaukee Bucks, Apr 13, 2009 8:00 PM EDT


UPDATE: With Hedo Turkoglu and Rashard Lewis ailing, Orlando Magic coach Stan Van Gundy has elected to rest Dwight Howard tonight as well. Marcin Gortat will get the start in his place, according to the Orlando Sentinel. Take a look at the depth chart, which I updated today prior to the news of Howard resting. Everyone's going to get off the bench tonight. Adonal Foyle may even play 20+ minutes if Gortat or Battie gets into foul trouble. Jeremy Richardson may also get plenty of time to pad his stats in order to prove he belongs in the NBA. This game will be ugly.

March 27th: Magic 110, Bucks 94

With Rashard Lewis (knee) and Hedo Turkoglu (ankle) sidelined for tonight's game against the Milwaukee Bucks, the Orlando Magic will start Tony Battie and Mickael Pietrus. Here's a question to ponder before tipoff: which starting lineup is better? Is it the 2006/2007 lineup of Jameer Nelson, Grant Hill, Turkoglu, Battie, and Dwight Howard? Or is it tonight's starting lineup, detailed in the chart above? These are the sort of things I think about before the 81st game of the season.

In light of Dwight's benching, perhaps the following question is pertinent. Would you rather have tonight's starting five, detailed above, or the most common starting lineup from the team's 21-61 season? For the record, the most common lineup that year was Tyronn Lue at the point, Keith Bogans and Tracy McGrady on the wings, and Juwan Howard up front with Andrew DeClercq in the middle.

A win tonight would set a new franchise record for victories on the road. So there's that much to play for, I suppose. Get the ball to Dwight, who has beasted the Bucks this year, and the club should achieve that milestone.

Tip's at 8. Go Magic.

2006/07 vs tonight: (no stats, just personal opinion)
Jameer Nelson then < Alston now – Jameer has improved quite a bit from 2 years ago, which is why I’m saying Alston is better
Grant Hill then push CLee now – Hill for his veteran leadership and scoring ability, Lee for his quickness and athleticism
Turkoglu then >> Peaches now – Peaches’ lack of basketball IQ really hurts the team when he is on the court
Battie then > Battie now – His game has regressed a bit since before the shoulder injury IMO
Dwight Howard then << Dwight Howard now – His game has improved so much in the past two years, this was the easiest choice of the bunch

by malars on Apr 13, 2009 5:06 PM EDT reply actions  

I would still have to take today's Magic lineup over that team 2 years ago

Today’s Dwight Howard alone pretty much trumps most of those earlier players to the point where you don’t even really need to consider the individual matchups.

Great question, by the way. I actually sat here and thought about it seriously for several minutes.

Doesn't Lee's midrange game remind you of Hill a little bit?

Clearly he’s not the passer or rebounder Grant is, but that little pullup jumper, the occasional transition finish, certainly reminds me of Orlando-era Hill.

The Bucks are 6 1/2 point favorites

…with an over/under of 195.

The oddsmakers are not giving the Magic any respect whatsoever with so many key players sitting out for the Magic.

Yeah...

In looking at the teams’ respective starting lineups, Magic almost look like they will match up well with the Bucks. Of course, the Bucks will have a better bench (Tyronn Lue notwithstanding).

Or is the thinking that the extra experience will be more beneficial to him?

Why did the Magic keep him again?

Was it because they knew a game like Sacramento was going to happen?

Good question.

I believe his destiny was shaped around the Kings game.

Well good for the Bucks

It’s always nice to get that final victory at home to end the season.

Yeah, I have nothing bad to say about them

They had a horrible injured year; otherwise, they would have made the playoffs, easy.

Rockets

Are destroying the Hornets.

You have to admit they’re way, way better than you’d think they’d be.

by eltharion_doa on Apr 13, 2009 10:29 PM EDT reply actions  

Rockets are a good team. Much better off without Tracy McGrady.

Von Wafer has done an adequate job filling in.

They would have been had the team not sucked to end the year.

.. likewise, they would have been had Jameer Nelson didn’t get hurt.

*is back*

I can’t believe this game garnered 700+ comments.

Obey the hat.

by TheGiantSquid on Apr 13, 2009 10:34 PM EDT reply actions  

Nice to see. The past few game threads have been rather slow in the commenting department.

At least, for 3QC’s standards.

To be fair

They were mostly “anti-comments”.
