Arron Afflalo will return for the Magic tonight.

Oladipo has been very impressive though.
Harden is still a work-in-progress. He can score, but he can't help his teammate that much - Yao Ming

Hope the bench guys step up tonight and give the team some quality minutes.

Turn it over more if that's possible.
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

This is exactly what I feared for this game. Coming into it high off of last night's big win and not matching the energy of the opponent. The Magic have nothing to lose so they are going to play this one like they are battling for home court advantage in the playoffs.

Someone needs to take control of this for Houston.

Beverley is an improving jump shooter but he really misses a lot of in the paint shots. It's just not his game.

I walked away for a few minutes - what happened to Motie? Why is he going to the locker room?

Why are the starters in? The bench needs work, LIn was doing OK and Asik was a rebounding machine. This is where I don't agree with McHale, he needs to get the bench guys going and for guys to work out of their slumps and he's limiting their minutes too much.

Mr. E, DMo got hit in the face on a screen.
