Wallace, Jamison, and Butler all have better numbers, as does Josh Smith.

 

I like Hedo and all, but he flat out doesn't deserve to get in.

but hedo is playing division leader and he is 2nd at total 4th quarter point in all nba

 

Jamison is one of two players in the East averaging 20/10, Butler is playing all universe right now, and Wallace's numbers are better across the board, and Wallace is also as good a defender as you find on the perimeter.

 

And while he's having a great year, Hedo is still shooting a bad percentage for the year, and plays no defense. And he turns the ball over too much.

I don't even want to think about it, but it's going to take a freak injury to someone for SVG to open his eyes a bit about big leads late and having your starters in for no reason.

 

likewise. I've been sitting here cringing after every possession. If not out of respect, do it for the health of your team, and get some of your guys some garbage minutes.

I don't care if you like the Magic or just Redick but you're totally right.

 

Boring game where Stan rides Dwight the whole 2nd half unnecessarily and Gortat, Augie, Foyle are nowhere to be seen. Same thing for Redick.

 

That's Stan Van frigging Dumby at his best.

 

I pray Vander Weide sell this team to someone who has a clue.

FOURTH QUARTER

The Heat score the first four points of the final period to bring them within three points. The Magic quickly answer with four straight of their own as they lead 87-80 three minutes into the fourth.

 

Dwight Howard throws down a monster one-handed slam to put the Magic up by double digits causing Pat Riley to call a timeout. The Heat have held Howard somewhat in check as Dwight has scored 14 points and grabbed nine rebounds.

 

Arroyo hits two from the charity stripe to give the Magic a 15 point lead at the halfway mark in the fourth. The Magic have outscored the Heat 27-14 from the free-throw line tonight.

 

Dooling scores four straight points for the Magic and Turk strokes two more from the line. With those two free-throws the Magic have tied their season-high total of 31 free-throws made. Overall, the Magic have shot a formidable 81 percent (31-of-38) as a team from the line.

 

Turk nets two more from the line and increases the Magic lead to 20 points at 103-83 with 4:23 remaining.

 

Not sure why Howard, Lewis, and Turk are still in the game at this point but either way Turk is making his bid for the All-Star game as he takes the ball to the hoop for his 27th point. The Magic lead 105-87 as we head toward the two minute warning. Turkoglu has 11 rebounds and five assists to go along with his game-high point total.

 

The Magic take care of business beating the Miami Heat 107-91 extending their home winning steak to give games.

 

Final: Orlando Magic 107, Miami Heat 91

Dwight needs to touch the ball more as earlier , team (especially Turk) started to forget him and not play with him . No biggie atm but Dwight will loose ingame concentration and engery if this continues , especially for the 2nd half's ....

Hedo is a clutch 4th quarter player who's averaging about 25 ppg or more lately. Able to hit a frigging turnaround 3 pointer to win you the game.

 

This is the clutch player we've needed all along. Did it in the Bulls game too with that running fadeaway shot to put them away.

 

27 10 and 5 tonight.

Dwight needs to be coached by Gundy into dunking over people and being the beast he can be, not a passive friendly guy down there. Although in this boring game I'm sure everyone just wanted to get this one over with.

when you look at the mins. you would think we played with a top caliber team.

 

Dwight 43 mins

Hedo 38 mins

Shard 34 mins

Arroyo 35 mins

 

this should have been bench players game and let your starters rested.
