Don't turn the ball over!


The 76ers are at their best when they get out in transition, so the Magic must limit their turnovers.

Good GT.

Is Daniel Orton really gonna start tonight? If so, I really can't wait for this game.

Still not excited about Duhon being in the rotation though. . .

If Daniel Starts tonight i'll be real interested to see what he can do with BIG minutes.....if he can be sort of a rim protector and grab some rebounds then i'll be happy......

So big baby is out, Orton has to start at C right? We can't start Earl at Center.

Nelson/Duhon
JJ/Wafer
JRich/QRich
Anderson/Clark
Orton/Clark

Probable lineup.

This just became the "Must Lose" game of the year. If Orlando wins games like this, the team is looking at a #5 seed and Boston. Lose games like this, and its #6 and Indy.

That said, I want to see the scrubs play hard as a second unit. This game could go a long way at getting the Magic mentally strong for the playoffs.

JUST WIN!!!!

I just dont see how clark can play real minutes at C, Hawes is just to big for him. I hope the big cat can get 30 min tonight and do something worth while

Orlando can expect Center minutes from Anderson as well.

Nice thread once again Prolific! Gonna need all hands on deck tonight and just continue to play hard, play smart, and have good ball movement on offense.

Like everyone else, I'm excited to see Daniel-san get more minutes. If he continues to impress, then I can see a "Gortat" type situation where he gets inserted into the playoff rotation and really provide a back up presence for Dwight. Only time will tell though.

Time to get a good win tonight...LET'S GET IT!!!

Not really. We still have to avoid the #7 seed and we likely can't lose out and keep the #6. We only have to win a few of the remaining games but a win vs Philly would go a long way in securing at least the #6. So this really could be a big game in terms of us playing the Pacers(barring a collapse by them)the 1st round other than the Heat.

Like you said tho, JUST WIN!
