Svanxx 30 Report post Posted February 16, 2011 I didn't want to start a new thread, but here's an article from the Washington Post talking about Lewis and Arenas. My link Some quick quotes: His image still covers banners hanging on light posts surrounding Amway Center, and his former coach credits him with helping the $480 million hoops cathedral the Orlando Magic calls home get built, so it was impossible for Rashard Lewis to return, less than two months after he was traded, without getting a little sentimental. When he arrived, Lewis saw that Magic Coach Stan Van Gundy was still conducting practice, so he decided to come back later because "you know how Stan is when they're practicing. I didn't want Stan screaming at me." Meanwhile, Gilbert Arenas, once the face of the Wizards franchise, will try to beat the team he represented for more than seven years for the second time in two weeks. Still grappling with a diminished reserve role in Orlando, Arenas said that he isn't as pumped for this contest as he was when the Wizards used to play his first team, the Golden State Warriors. "It's not like the old days," Arenas said, cracking a smile. "If I was calling my own plays, it'd be exciting." Lewis still closely follows his former team, but Arenas said he usually just checks the box score to see how his close friend Nick Young fared, so that he could call or text him to talk trash or offer advice. Arenas said he hung out with Young when the Wizards arrived from Cleveland on Monday, joking, "He was my Valentine." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Ryan Anderbads 27 Report post Posted February 16, 2011 Should be a blowout....but you never know with this Magic team. Everyone has been so inconsistent besides Dwight. Got a couple days of rest so I'm expecting a good game from everyone today. Magic 108-89 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shock Phantom 263 Report post Posted February 16, 2011 Nick Young is the definition of "one dimensional". Anyway, I don't think I can take another disappointing home loss. Just win, Magic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shock Phantom 263 Report post Posted February 16, 2011 No Nick Young tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BMP 424 Report post Posted February 16, 2011 No Nick Young tonight. Tonight's going to be fun because Blatche will have a bigger role offensively meaning we're going to see an incredible amount of 21 contested footers (and I don't mean from Arenas). Should be a game where the Magic will be running a lot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Passenger57 65 Report post Posted February 16, 2011 This should be one of those games where none of the starters play more than 30 minutes. Dominate early, play defense for 48 minutes, don't fall asleep in the 3rd quarter and second unit maintain/extend the lead. Magic win 111-89. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looks like Joe Crawford is the lead referee for tonight's game. We're screwed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
