Tonight's Orlando Magic Game: vs. Los Angeles Clippers
Los Angeles Clippers at Orlando Magic, Mar 9, 2010 7:00 PM EST
Two days after escaping the L.A. Lakers' late rally at Amway Arena, the Orlando Magic will host the Clippers, L.A.'s other team, and look to extend their win streak to six games. The Magic beat the Clippers in L.A. earlier this season, but that came with both teams using much different rotations. The Magic didn't have Jameer Nelson available at point guard, so Jason Williams started and Anthony Johnson came off the bench. Also, Matt Barnes had yet to wrest the starting small forward gig from Mickael Pietrus. L.A. still employed Marcus Camby, Al Thornton, and Sebastian Telfair, whom they've since shipped out for Drew Gooden, Travis Outlaw, and Steve Blake. They also relieved Mike Dunleavy of his coaching duties, though he's still their GM, and replaced him on the sidelines with Kim Hughes. Another thing that's changed is the Clippers' fortune: prior to playing the Magic in December, they had a decent record at 9-11. But mediocre play since then, culminating in a 6-game slide in mid-February, has ended their playoff hopes. To compound that misfortune, they've lost 25 games by double-digits, tied with Indiana for the league's third-highest total. Thus, their point differential indicates they're worse than their record indicates. Their record stands at 25-38, but their differential suggests they should be 20-43, which would place them ahead of only Minnesota and New Jersey. Yikes.

I always caution against taking any team too lightly, and with the Clippers that's no different. Baron Davis is still an unrivaled chucker, launching 4 three-pointers per game at 27.9%, sure, but his size and post-up skills make him a tough cover for Nelson. Eric Gordon might not play due to a sore leg, but he's a tremendous talent as well, scoring 17.2 points per game on 58.2% True Shooting at age 21. Rasual Butler shot 34-of-75 on three-pointers last month. And the trio of Chris Kaman, Gooden, and Craig Smith can score inside fairly efficiently.
Against Dwight Howard, though? The Clippers--although with different personnel, as I noted above--shot just 15-of-31 at the rim against the Magic last time out, due largely to Howard's presence and, uh, 7 blocked shots. As Steve Perrin writes, Kaman actually hasn't had a bad game against Howard in his career, but he hasn't exactly been great, either. If Kaman and Gooden can hold their own in the post, and if they do a reasonable job crashing the offensive boards--Gooden's the league's 11th-best offensive rebounder--L.A. stands a chance tonight. I really believe that, especially if the Magic continue to misfire on their three-pointers. Discounting their absurd 15-of-23 performance against Philadelphia last week, Orlando has connected on just 33% of its treys in its winning streak.
Tip's at 7. Eddy'll be at The Am to cover the whole thing.

The Clippers have some potential...
…not just saying that because they’re my second-favorite team. Kaman, Gordon and Davis are all well above average at their positions (though Davis’ decision-making and commitment are question marks). If Griffin is as good as advertised (and his injuries don’t become chronic… though this one seems like a fluke) and they can get another top player in the draft, they really could be something. Of course, it would be even better if they had some means of attracting a FA, but between the team’s reputation and Donald Sterling’s reputation, that might be… tough.
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...
With Baron out, Jameer will go off tonight

I did too but changed it now that I know Baron is out.

I checked the Clippers' blog and Yahoo! Sports, and no mention was made about Gordon
…so it looks like he’ll probably play.

The Magic are 12 1/2 point favorites
…with an over/under of 199 1/2.
According to the Power Rating System used at Sportsbook.com, it calculates the Magic should actually be 21 point favorites, so this game is one of their “best bets” tonight for the Magic to cover the 12 1/2 point spread.

Kaman has gotten away with hitting Dwight on the arm a couple of times already and no call.

Kaman is a mongoloid.

These Clippers announcers...
are flirting with the line between admiration and obsession for Matt Barnes.
Better than the Cavs announcers.
I watched the Cavs-Spurs game yesterday and was nauseous 3 minutes in. They spend all their time fawning over everyone on the Cavs and acting like they are all mini-Lebrons. I’d wager to say they are worse than the Raptors announcers.

Yeah, that was pretty awful.
They also offered absolutely no insight. We’re so lucky with our guys.
I hate Varejao.
The Nets commentators are the best, by far, that I have ever heard
Especially Ian Eagle coupled with Jim Spinarkel.
What a difference from Sunday, only 5 total fouls called in the 1st qtr!
NBA Championship or bust in '09-10!!!! GO MAGIC!!!!
it's kinda like in Step Brothers
where Derek’s wife gets the hots for Dale for punching his husband in the face. Barnes gets respect for standing up to Kobe, whilst the Clippers continue to suck (I hope i’m not jinking the Magic today)
Pretty good first quarter for the Magic
52% shooting, 4 of 7 on threes, 5 of 5 on FTs with just 2 turnovers.
Clippers shooting just 43%.

If I were down in a game near the end, I'd just grab the net, let them take the tech FT, and hope we get possession off the jumpball.
That’s just a crazy rule!

Why would the Magic have the possibility of losing the possession there when they had possession of the ball at the time of the violation?

Nice to see Brandon doing well
I know most of us prefer Ryan Anderson over Bass, but I’m sure not going to root against Bass; Anderson will get his chance sometime down the road.

Ride whoever's hot, and play them based on the situation
Physical banger PFs – Bass
Less physical shooter PFs – Anderson
"When you make your final stand

That would be the idea.
Although I’m in the minority, I don’t really see why the Magic insist holding onto Gortat beyond this season. I really don’t.

Lots of intersting decisions for the Magic Brass to make after the season
Will they re-sign J.J. Redick, who’s a restricted free agent… what about Matt Barnes, who can opt out of his contract.
I’ll worry about those things after the season…. still a long way to go.

At least JJ's RFA, though
It’ll force teams to either not go after him or wildly overpay him

JJ has no real value around the league.
He would be lucky to get the contract Dahntay Jones got from Indy.

That’s less than he makes now.
"When you make your final stand

The key is what JJ's worth is around the L.
If it’s higher to the Magic than any other team, it’s probably going to result in a lower salary for JJ.

Unless they can get a better asset in return (i.e. a slightly lesser player + pick), I'd keep him
Having a backup center who’s equal to a lot of the starters is valuable. If Howard gets into foul trouble, Gortat’s not a disastrous downgrade. I’m not sure Bass can fill that role, and neither Lewis nor Anderson can.
"When you make your final stand

Isn't that why Bass was signed? To play backup C?
He may not be as good as Gortat, but he’s got strengths Gortat doesn’t have. Gortat doesn’t make the Magic significantly better IMO. But, we’ll see.

Backup PF and/or C

Are you seriously suggesting Gortat’s play cost them the title?

Anyone think that the Magic players want to give Foyle some minutes for his birthday?
Just to be clear, I am probably being sarcastic.
The rate this game is going, he probably will
If he is dressed for the game, that is.

I hope you guys are noticing that Bass isnt as bad as he's labelled
especially the Ryan Anderson extreme fanatics

He's still pretty bad.
He’s a defensive liability, and he basically only rebounds by accident.

I've never seen a game where his defense was so bad that it affected our game
even when he was getting big minutes. He looks out of sync sometimes but rarely ever leads to much negatively.
