Orlando Magic at Miami Heat, Mar 18, 2010 7:00 PM EDT
On the second night of a back-to-back and short their best perimeter defender, the Orlando Magic will visit the Miami Heat in a potential first-round playoff preview. Miami leads the season series, 2-1, so Orlando has a score to settle; Dwight Howard said as much on his blog today. But Orlando faces a stiff challenge tonight, as Mickael Pietrus will sit out due to a sprained left ankle suffered in last night's blowout win over the San Antonio Spurs. Matt Barnes, himself recovering from a sprained toe, will play and draw the difficult, unenviable assignment of covering Dwyane Wade. Pietrus' absence also means that Vince Carter and J.J. Redick will also spend some time tonight stranded on Wade Island, because Barnes has to rest occasionally. Clearly, this is cause for concern.

Heat center Jermaine O'Neal and Howard basically offset in the last meeting between these teams, with each getting under the other's skin and also battling foul trouble. Should that situation play out tonight, it'll be incumbent upon Jameer Nelson, Rashard Lewis, and Carter to score, while Marcin Gortat will have to protect the rim--which he did beautifully in the first 3 quarters against San Antonio, before mailing in the fourth quarter and allowing Ian Mahinmi to score 12 points--and occasionally clean up an errant Magic shot. Orlando can win this way, and since Gortat is better than Howard anyway, they'll be fine. Right? Of course!
Miami's offense isn't much, even with Wade and the gifted Michael Beasley carrying much of the load. O'Neal hasn't posted up since George W. Bush's first term as president, preferring instead to launch jumpers from the baseline or top of the key. That's fine, I guess, and he's having a decent year, but if O'Neal is the best third option your team has, your team is bereft of offensive talent.
The wildcard, really, is Quentin Richardson. He's similar to Barnes in that he's a safety valve offensively, benefits from opponents paying too much attention to his superstar teammates, and rebounds well for his position. The difference is that, despite their darn near identical True Shooting marks, Richardson does his damage from the outside, attempting nearly two-thirds of his shots from beyond the arc and connecting at an excellent 39.5% clip. Barnes, as we know, gets his at the rim, off cuts, and in transition. Richardson has drilled 3 or more three-pointers 16 times in 62 games, and has gone all the way up to 7 on 3 occasions. Last season, he dropped 33 points on the Magic in just 35 minutes, though he did most of his damage off the dribble in that game. I hadn't seen Richardson dribble since he and Darius Miles had their Alien Antlers thing going. Based on how well the Magic defended him that night, I'm guess it'd been a while for them too.
I'm not suggesting that the Magic need be more concerned with Richardson than Wade. He's Miami's 1, 1A, and 1B on offense. He's also a solid passer and will find the open man if pressured, especially on his way to the hoop. He'd tally more assists if he had centers with hands that can handle a dump-off pass; Joel Anthony and Jamaal Magloire are ill-suited to doing so.
Given the Heat's advantage of having a day of rest, and given the Magic's lack of a second wing defender to throw at Wade, this one could turn out ugly for Orlando, not unlike their first visit to Miami this year. Carter's shooting 31.3% from three-point range on the second night of bak-to-back sets this season, while taking a third of his shots from downtown. A lot of things are stacked in Miami's favor tonight. Except for talent, that is, and the odd bit about Orlando rarely losing (that I can remember) when wearing their home uniforms on the road. The Heat, Ira Winderman reports, van a poner sus uniformes negros que dice El Heat en la parte delantera para celebrar Noche Latina.
Finally, because Monty McCutchen will officiate this game, I can share this anecdote from Kings-beat-writer-turned-FanHouse-scribe Sam Amick, who relayed this story via Twitter 6 weeks ago:
Official Monty McCutchen has a bit more flair than your typical zebra: he rolls into the game wearing a bowtie and light blue suit...cont'..
...then when asked about it, says 'The icing on the cake? It has been an excellent hair day too.' Wow.
Outstanding.

At least we won't have the unenviable task of guarding Rafer Alston.
In all seriousness, it’s is sad what happened to him. Hope things work out better for him.
It’ll be a tough game tonight. They’ve played us hard all year, and we’ve struggled in back-to-backs all year.
Monty McCutchen sounds like the Craig Sager of officiating.
I hate Varejao.
All I want is to come home from (yet another) class and see the Magic up in the 3rd quarter.
Ok, maybe I want them to win a bit more. Just don’t let me down Orlando.
I just read on Basketbawful
that Rashard’s been vocal in his complaints about Vince this season and that the reason Hedo was superior to Vince was because he had better chemistry with the team. Does anyone have any links or whatnot that corroborates the Rashard point? I don’t remember reading anything but I haven’t got the greatest memory. As for chemistry, I haven’t noticed anything off, but what do I know…
I'm a girl.
Where was that? I read it earlier and didn't see that part.

I vote that Miami should change their name to the Wades, since everyone else on the team pretty much sucks.

Rashard Lewis update:
Lewis will tie Glen Rice for 7th all-time on the Career Three-Point Field Goals Made list with just two more makes. He is 8 behind Chauncey Billups who also plays tonight. Once Rashard passes Glen Rice on the list, the next three players on the list are all active players and the player ahead of Billups on the list (Jason Kidd) is currently 72 ahead of Rashard, so the best Rashard can hope to do this season is to catch and pass Billups for 6th all-time (though the gap between the two has been pretty steady all season so that may not happen).
NBA Championship or bust in '09-10!!!! GO MAGIC!!!!
Magic are 2 point favorites
…with an over/under of 189 1/2.
Heat are 13-21 against winning teams.
The Magic are 8-8 on the second game of back-to-backs, and are 10-2 in games after allowing 85 points or less.
I’ll be around for the second half of the game.

Playing decent so far.
Defense has been semi-porous. We are getting a good shot down the floor every time though.
Dwight is avoiding fouls
probably a good strategy since he was too aggressive in the losses to El Calor

Why do we never seem to be in a position to close out on a three point shooter.
Every single game any team can get a wide open three point shot on almost any possession they want to.
What happened to Dwight's FT stroke? He was in a pretty good rhythm for about a month, but the last 3 games have been awful!

Nice shot by Reddick. Squid will be pleased.

Dwight with his second....26 seconds before the first quarter ends.
Looks like we’ll be getting 4-6 minutes from Marcin in the 2nd quarter.
good to see the Magic's best center play
not

Dwight being on the floor was more important that those two points. Should have let that one go.
NBA Championship or bust in '09-10!!!! GO MAGIC!!!!
it was almost a clean block, but he got him on the tail end of the play
i think they were going to call a foul even if he had ended up with a clean block anyways
Good way to finish the quarter for the Magic . . .
The Heat are hungry and any team with D-Wade is always dangerous.
Sigh . . . Now I need new AVATAR!
as i type that, marcin gives miami an offensive rebound for a 3 pointer....
ugh i wish we could get some 50/50 plays go our way.
It's amazing how many empty seats there are for a division and state rival with two superstars coming to town and a nationally televised game.
…for a team fighting for a playoff birth with Dwayne Wade as their star player!

Dwight's really patrolling the post, no blocks but a lot of adjusted shots

That's what I want to see Dwight doing.
Pushing his defender under the basket. Much better than catching it 12-16 feet out.

I'm showing them with 4 team fouls, so the next foul is FTs.
NBA Championship or bust in '09-10!!!! GO MAGIC!!!!
Now we’re in the penalty.

Once there are 4 team fouls, every foul after that equates to FTs, so I don't see how we weren't in the penalty already.
NBA Championship or bust in '09-10!!!! GO MAGIC!!!!
You just answered your own query.
4 fouls – not in the penalty
5 fouls – in the penalty
The most recent was their 5th.

it was a wide open look, and he usually doesn't miss those so it isn't a bad shot
a missed layup though, is a completely wasted opportunity that just shouldn’t happen

Here's a fan post thought
I really like that the Magic shake and bump with the other team after a game. Is it good sportmansship, unlike some Cleveland teams have shown. Is this a sign of weakness, or just good sportsmanship??
Maybe you know Judo, maybe I know Smith and Wesson.
well yesterday against the Spurs that didn't happen
I say it’s good sportsmanship, but I suppose it comes down to the two teams. I’m not surprised it happened, but if it was Magic-Cavs, I would be.
Dwight was talking to his old PG buddy Arroyo
Dwight and Tim at least acknowledged each other before they left the floor.
Unlike other players who retreat to the locker room because they are “competitors.”

It's good sportsmanship
But I’m not that bothered by professional sports teams not doing it, especially after close/devastating losses.

Dwight Howard Blocked 4 shots.. and was blocked 4 times..
we don't light the stars, we simply fade with them..
A great effort by the Magic tonight on the back-to-back
Magic are now 9-8 on the second of back-to-backs.

As long as the Magic win, that's what counts!
Great to see the Magic pull out the close ones.

The Magic have won 10 of 11, 13 of 15, 16 of 20, 20 of 25, 23 of 29.
The Magic had a similar run last year, but it was before Jameer went down with injury. Coincidence that this is happening as Jameer returns to pre-shoulder injury form? I think not!
NBA Championship or bust in '09-10!!!! GO MAGIC!!!!
If you know the game
the chapionship formula is a great big man, a really good point guard and a couple of excellent players to score and defend. D12 isa a great big man, a healthy Jameere is a really good point guard and Vince is a more than excellent 2-guard with Rashard being and excellent streach 4. Barnes is is junk yard dog that coule breed Westminister winners and the supporting cast is good enough that a really good player like RA cannot find playing time.
If healthy, my money (lots of it) is on the Magic.
Maybe you know Judo, maybe I know Smith and Wesson.

Who was the last champion to follow that formula, though?
Spurs?

And before that, the Lakers, and before that, the Rockets.

Vince was 3 for 10 from 3pt
I don’t like that.
That’s my only gripe.
Most of them were good looks though, so I'll take the occassional bad night from deep considering how he's been playing the past month and a half!

The increased minutes were the result of Pietrus' injury I'm sure.

He rarely turns the ball over, too
…just 2 turnovers in 46 minutes.

Anyone else notice that when the Magic beat the HEAT (a PLAYOFF team) on the road the ESPN and NBA Headlines respectively are. . .
“Magic top Heat in OT after wasting 12-point lead” and
“Escape from Miami”
Yet when the Cavs SQUEAK out a W to the lowly Pacers at hom the NBA byline was . . . “Lebron does it again”
BIAS MUCH????
/rant
Sigh . . . Now I need new AVATAR!
I've noticed this as well.
The Magic never beat a team, they always escape or squeak by. As if every team they go up against is better. Meanwhile, Lebron has 24 and 6 and the Cavs beat the Nets by 3 and he “Dominates again as Cavs put down another opponent.”
The media bias against the Magic is one of the worst I’ve seen across the board of all the major sports. Although, I must say, it isn’t as horrible as the Tim Tebow love, but that’s a post for a different site.

Let them say whatever they want
…but they are never gonna see they’re dream matchup! LBJ is gonna be crying out of Amway again. Magic will always be the underdog!
