Around SBN: Knicks Beat Lakers With Familiar Strategy

Ball don't lie again speaks the truth



http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/blog/ball_dont_lie/post/The-Orlando-Magic-are-still-championship-worthy?urn=nba,228784#remaining-content

Star-divide

"Because while the game still goes inside out, and finding a good center is still the hardest thing to do in this league, the point guard position is as important as ever. And Nelson is this league's most pivotal X-factor, if you can handle the redundancy, and the Magic don't go over the top without him contributing steadily and efficiently.

They're the keys, and Nelson is the biggest question. But beyond that, you're still looking at a championship contender. Not some team that lucked into a fourth-round finish last year and not some squad going only as far as Dwight Howard takes them.

No, the Magic can win it all. They can down the Cavs, no worries, and force Derek Fisher(notes) into retirement if Nelson is on.

It has to be "on" for him, though. This team doesn't go anywhere without him."

Jameer is the key to the championship

He is the captain beside Superman, I think if he was healthy last year, we would’ve beat the Lakers, and now here is our chance to get back to the Finals and win. Nelson and Lewis, will be a X Factors, Dwight and Vince will be the attention ,and Matt Barnes will play his heart out until we win.
