Dwight and everyone here should be pissed if he doesn't get 20 shots with little to zero double teams.
Pau can't defend Dwight straight-up, get Pau in foul trouble and we've won half the battle.

Then it's just a matter of letting Kobe do his thing and not letting anyone other than Odom reach 20 points.

Cook - 17/6/3
Evans - 16/5/2

The Lakers recent close loss might help the Magic; especially coupled to the Magic's recent big win.

The Magic are riding high. The Lakers are despondent from a frustrating loss.

Still, the Magic must hit a high percentage of their FG% to win this. And Nelson needs to extend his last game's good play.

And it goes without saying that Evans/Dooling/Bogans need a monster defensive night. Maybe 18 fouls is the way to go here!

but instead of kicking just one guy in the groin he kicks Odom and Gasol in the groin at the same time, scissor kick style...

..

Coach Stan-the-Man convinces Jammer the Magic will win this one:

Said Stan, "I am Coach Van Gundy and I approve this message."

Tonight's good luck photo:

If Stan-the-Man sticks with Arroyo during a win streak, then we are stuck with a winning good luck photo.

If Arroyo ever wants to see minutes again, he better pass the bread when given the chance:

Kobe Bryant won't tape his dislocated right pinkie for tonight's game against the Orlando Magic.

He said he didn't realize the severity of the injury initially. Then he tried to catch a pass and dribble down the court. That's when he looked at his right hand and realized his pinkie was not in its customary spot next to his ring finger.

"It was kind of interesting," Bryant said. "You look at your hand and it's, like, `How is my knuckle all the way down here? This kinda hurts.' I hurt it, then I went and played defense. Then I called for the ball and it's like, `Why is my finger not there?'

Sun: Bryant puts finger on struggles

Well, sadly, this is good news for Magic fans.

The current line favors the Magic by two. If I was a betting man, with Bryant struggle to grasp the rock, I'd favor the Magic at -2.

$50 says Kobe goes ballistic...

Kobe will or wont get his numbers and I can live with that, we simply must put Fisher in check he has burned teams behind the 3 when he gets on fire. And the other factor will be Odom, Rashard will have to step it up a notch on the defensive end for us to win.

Eitherway we have a very very tough stretch of games and next 4 games are probably our toughest games coming up so we better bring our A++ game until the Allstar break.

Magic fans, good luck tonight ! It's gonna be interesting watching Evans and most important, Cookie ! I've seen he's been playing pretty well recently ! Good for him !

Too bad that Trevor is injured. It would be nice if he played.
Want to tell you something. If your team stay 90 - 100% healthy during the playoffs, you'll surpass the Celtics no problem ! I'm sure ! Not that I'm a Lakers fan ! I really think so !

Good luck !

I just want Dwight to get revenge from his rookie year and dunk on Kobe, just one time.
