Orlando Magic Vs. San Antonio Spurs Game Preview

San Antonio Spurs at Orlando Magic, Jan 18, 2012 7:00 PM EST


Photo

The Orlando Magic aim to close out their only back-to-back-to-back set of the season strong Wednesday night when they host the San Antonio Spurs at Amway Center. The Magic have won each of their last five games and look to keep San Anotnio winless on the road this season.

The Spurs are coming off a confounding loss to the Miami Heat, one in which they squandered a 17-point first-half lead by allowing Miami to dominate the third quarter, 39-12. Due to the blowout, coach Gregg Popovich was able to rest his veterans; Tim Duncan played 27 minutes, Tony Parker logged 25, and Richard Jefferson saw 23.

The teams have split the eight meetings since Stan Van Gundy took over as Orlando's head coach, with each team owning a 3-1 record at home.

Former Spurs forward Hedo Turkoglu, arguably Orlando's second-best player, will sit Wednesday due to back spasms, reports Josh Robbins of the Orlando Sentinel. Quentin Richardson will take his place in the starting lineup.

Need Jameer to step up big time tonight against Tony Parker.

Other players will have to step up for the Magic tonight

Despite missing two starters, the Magic are 5 point favorites over the Spurs, with an over/under of 192 1/2.

Interesting that both the Magic and Spurs are both tied for first in the league in offensive efficiency.

San Antonio is 7-7 at Orlando since 1996, but the Magic have won the last two games in Orlando against the Spurs.

The Spurs are shooting 47.1% from the field and 39.9% on threes, compared to the Magic’s 46.6% from the field and 41.1% on threes.

Defensively, the Spurs allow their opponents to shoot 46.6% from the field and 37.2% on threes, while the Magic allow opponents to shoot 44.5% from the field and 33.5% on threes.

One of the most dramatic Magic wins in their history...

…came against the Spurs in Orlando five years ago in February of 2007. Hedo Turkoglu’s brilliant inbounds pass to Dwight Howard for a slam at the buzzer gave the Magic a 106-104 victory.

Brian Hill was still the Magic coach.

Ginobilli is a myth.

He’s like a basketball bigfoot.

You hear rumors of him playing at the beginning of each season but midway through he disappears into the cool mountain fog of the injured list never to be seen again.

Ah now I gotcha. Well I'm sorry if I offended you

At my school it seems like I get bombarded by feminists and what to do and how to do it. I guess after a couple years of that I just started to not like them. Having a conversation is fine by me, just don’t suffocate me with everyone coming at me at once, that’s all I ask from them. I understand it’s a huge issue, but sometimes it’s just too much
(Again, this is from my experience at school so it’s probably very different in the real world)

So... what is it that these feminists tell you to do then

There are many different definitions of feminism, but being pushy and bossy isn’t in any of them.

And… well, you don’t need to be female to be a feminist. I’m a guy and I’m proud to say I’m a feminist.

Sorry if I come across as being direct but yeah, just wanted to clear up a misconception. :)

Being pushy and bossy is a solid trait in high school women though. I think that's where most of it comes from

Also, there are plenty of male feminists at my school. I’m friends with some of them and talk about how the country views women, how our friends see our female friends among many other things. But 90% of the people at my school that are feminists are, I’ll use your word, “bossy”. I just would rather have a conversation with representatives than hearing them on our announcements every week. And I have no problem with you being direct. It’s fine by me :)

Story: Eh. I’ve got nothing on that.
Pretty much I always think that if people expect too much from it they’ll really dislike it, but I went into it thinking there was just going to be robots punching each other. Turned out there was a little bit more behind it than that so I was pleasantly surprised. Again, that’s a 17-year-old’s take so I guess it depends on the person and what they want out of the movie. Can’t blame you guys if you don’t like it :)

that it isn’t good at being a fun boom-bam action flick. I don’t even hate on Michael Bay really. I thought Bad Boys, The Rock and Armageddon were all fine for what they were. But all three Transformer movies don’t accomplish any of their goals well.

How is it not good at fulfilling that? They have robots who constantly fight, a "hot" girl and a protagonist who many could, and do, relate with

I could actually discuss this with you in person for like an hour

but I’m an editor and from a craft standpoint, the Transformers movies are very poor at presenting credible action sequences with interesting blocking or choreography. They use a chaos over comprehension philosophy that I don’t think is very enjoyable to watch. That’s not always a bad thing but it has to be handled delicately and with a lot of skill i.e. the way a Bourne movie would. I generally prefer action sequences that have high comprehension and creativity like this year’s “Adventures of Tintin”.

by cgsimone on Jan 18, 2012 8:18 PM EST up reply actions  

That's because Bay is a commercial and music video director.

Not a storyteller.

David Fincher and Riddley Scott are a couple of directors that could make the transition from commercials and video clips to movies, but even they seem to be more interested in the visual aspect of the movie than anything else.

Looks like the score from a mid-to-late-90’s game. Except back then there were reasons for the low scores.

meh, the possesion was Jameer dribbling around without purpose and then passing out to Anderson for a forced shot.

The fact that Howard got the rebound and JJ had a shot at the end is kind of incidental. Not totally Redick’s fault. But that dribble was still stupid.

Losing in OT on the last possession in our third game in 3 days...I'll take the loss with a grain of salt.

I’m glad we were in it to the end at least. With Redick making that shot it’s about as close to a win as it could get. Wish there’d just been an extra second. Overall I’ll settle with 2-1 for (I think?) our only back-to-back-to-back stretch.

I’m disappointed, especially with that final shot. Can’t be too upset though, they looked exhausted for much of the game and still almost pulled it off in overtime off a back-to-back-to-back.
