The Tradition

I am going out on a limb here and say: L.

I think, although I hope to be wrong, that Magic will have that bit too much for us. Although their outside shooting isn't exactly brilliant. But the way this season has been going, I don't have a clue how to call games any more anyway!

Torched by the Nuggets. Beat the Bulls, neck and neck with SA until the end. I'd say you're right.

West and Watson look like they are going to play for the first time this year.

Say goodbye to AJ Price, he's been waived.

Even at full strength the Magic always seem to play us tough so I have to agree. They're young and most of their guys are tough to gameplan for simply because no one has seen enough of them.

Especially with Hibbert out though I would love to see Allen on Vucevic. Ian has the size, but you need a scrappy guy to play Vuc or he's going to torch you on the glass.

West with the two quick fouls.

We were talking about Allen turning into a solid replacement for Scola next year.... way he is playing,he could be a solid replacement for West when he hangs it up.


Miles just can't find his shot.

Man, of all players... Ben freaking Gordon is lighting us up?

David West looks GREAT in his first game back, and Lavoy looks awesome too. Seriously can't believe Lavoy didn't get any minutes last year.

Miles is real bad though. It's gonna be a long 4 years of him being with us, gotta question the contract we gave him at this point.

Stuckey had 24, West with 18. Nice win.

What West can do when fed the ball and without other scorers around him is amazing. And Stuckey's min contract might be the biggest bargain of the offaeason if he continues to play like this.

Yeah, Stuckey's contract off-sets Miles. I think Miles might be the slow-cooker sort of guy, who needs time to gel with his team-mates and so on to become comfortable. I really hope so anyway but to be fair, I never quite liked that signing.

Good to get another win and to see West back.

Still feeling good about the season.

Great game. West, Stuckey and Allen were absolutely awesome.

Miles is a shooter. When his shot is falling, he looks great. When not...

Stat of the game for me- Donald Sloan and Solomon Hill combined for 60 minutes... and committed 0 turnovers.
