Washington Wizards at Orlando Magic, Feb 5, 2010 7:00 PM EST
The Orlando Magic will look to improve their winning streak to 5 games, and to avenge an embarrassing January defeat, tonight when they host the Washington Wizards, who reside in the Southeast Division cellar and have the Eastern Conference's second-worst record. Injuries and scandal have derailed Washington's season and have forced coach Flip Saunders, in his first year leading the Wizards, to use 18 different starting lineups, and none more than 7 times. Mainstays Caron Butler, Brendan Haywood, and Antawn Jamison appear in trade rumors each day, and Mike Prada of Bullets Forever believes Jamison "absolutely needs" to go. It's been a rough season for the franchise, but that didn't stop the Wizards from ambushing the Magic last month--in their first home game since guard Gilbert Arenas pled guilty to firearms charges--going on a late 33-16 run to win and to prolong Orlando's tailspin. They also added literal injury to insult, as a hard Andray Blatche screen separated Vince Carter's shoulder after he had gotten off to an encouraging start on the offensive end, setting his disappointing season back even further.

As you might expect given their record, the Wizards don't do anything especially well. Haywood's one of the better low-post defenders in the league, and Dwight Howard even ranked him the league's 3rd-best defender overall, but no other Wizard stands out defensively. Orlando should have no problem getting the looks it wants from the outside, and although Haywood's a plus-defender, Howard's really taken it to other great interior defenders of late.
Jamison always gives the Magic trouble, and I wouldn't put it past a guy like Mike Miller or Randy Foye to have the sort of game where he can't miss anything. The Magic must stay locked-in defensively; in the 8 games since returning from their West Coast road trip, Orlando's held its opponents to 97.8 points per 100 possessions, and allowed an opponent to crack the league-wide average of 106.9 just twice.
What really helped the Wizards in their earlier win over Orlando was their home crowd and sense of spirit. It's hokey, I know, and I hate writing things like that. But it was very apparent that the fans got behind the Wizards, who fed on that energy as they made their winning run. Tonight, they won't have that benefit. They played, in TruthAboutIt's words, "like they don't give a f*ck" in their most recent outing, a loss to the New York Knicks in which they surrendered a 23-6 run to lose control of the game.
What I'm getting at is that there aren't a lot of factors at play tonight that favor Washington, but I've learned never to count out a team with Jamison on it. His career average of 23.9 points against Orlando is his highest against any of the league's 30 teams.

Magic are 13 point favorites
…with an over/under of 194 1/2.
The Wizards allow opposing teams to shoot 46% from the field and 37.1% from the three point line.
The Wizards are 5-15 against teams with a winning record, while the Magic are 11-4 revenging a loss against an opponent and 18-6 against teams with a losing record.
Wizards are just 5-21 against the spread in their last 26 games against teams from the SE division.

Is it a mental thing?
This team seems to have no killer instinct – we NEVER put teams away. If this were the Cavs or the Lakers they’d be going to their second team for the entire fourth because they’d have turned a 20 point first quarter lead into a 30-35 point lead at the final change.

Why would the Wizards do that?
They’d be looking to dump salary and years, not load up.
Plus if we can’t find good shots for four shooters in Lewis, Howard, Carter and Nelson, I can’t see adding another shooter in Butler to the mix being a great idea.

And they blew the whistle mid shot. That had to distract Rashard, not that he would have made the shot otherwise.

The Magic continue a disturbing trend of having one good/great quarter (whether that is the 1st, 2nd, 3rd of 4th), and having 3 average to bad quarters and making the game close!

That's true.
Team loss. AND, Carter needs to be shooting either less often or higher efficiency. Part of his slump appears to come from poor shoot selection.

Can't lay this all on Vince. He actually played a decent game, taking the ball to the basket, being aggressive, getting to the FT line.
He just missed shots. The whole team is to blame tonight.

Vince "taking the ball to the basket" != Vince "playing a good game".
Vince has no business taking the ball to the basket. He can’t score around the basket… he can’t get past or over anyone. It’s too much of a risk for a two-point shot.
It's a good thing Larry Bird's initials weren't MJ. '80s basketball was confusing enough -- Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan, Marles Jarkley, Mominique Jilkins... Makeem Jolajuwon...

Carter may not score around the basket but he can create contact and draw fouls.
Vince has been doing more of that these past few games.

He's been doing more of getting the ball to Dwight.
That’s the problem — more shots for Vince means fewer shots for Dwight. Fewer shots for Dwight means fewer open shots on the perimeter. Open shots on the perimeter is how we get really efficient shots. And what do you know, we didn’t get too many of those tonight.
What we saw tonight was a best-case scenario for Vince in terms of fouls. The refs were whistle-happy all night, and Vince didn’t miss a single free throw. 17 shots + half of 8 FTs = 21 possessions ending in Vince shooting. 21 points for Vince. He’s an inefficient scorer. And that would be true even if devoting so many possessions to Vince didn’t throw a wrench into the rest of the offense.

his shot selection continues to suck, and he just uses a ton of possessions.
this team cannot afford him shooting 6 of 15 every night. that simple.
