Thornton decides to grab the ball on its way down from the hoop when a foul got called. Dumb play by Thornton. What was he thinking. Even Billy Crystal doesn't seem happy about it.

Come on Al. He made a rookie mistake. Goal-tended on a shooting foul. Gotta be patient my man.

Magic up 10. Dunleavy picks up 2 quick techs and he is done!!

Dunleavy is gone. Wonder if it's something that has to do with Diaz.

At least it's nice to see some emotion from him.

Jim Eyen will coach the rest of the game.

Wow, and just like that we are down 78-64.

It's getting ugly really quick. Magic are up 14 points.

And even Mike Smith is saying the reason we are down is because of bad shot selection.

Mobley air balls a wide open three ball. How about driving to the basket?

82-69 Clippers are down.

Joe Forte made another questionable call. Conspiracy?

For a guy with at 42:1 A/T ratio heading into this game, that was a lazy pass by Knight.

How are we only down 13?

Thomas needs to play like this all the time.

84-71 Magic leading by 13. What's with the Clips poor shot selection tonight?

Perfect example of poor shot selection...Cat Mobley with a sideways fallaway 15 footer with a hand in his face.

Get the offensive rebound, Powell is wide open for a 15 footer (no problem with it) and Thomas tips it in.

Next drive we get a layup from Thomas.

We have to eliminate the stupid shots.

Sounds like something you expect from a kid in middle school to do.

BTW, Clips on a mini 4-0 run right now. 84-75 Magic with the lead.

Down 11 with 2:00 left in the third. How we are down only 11...I have no clue.

Yup, some of the Clippers seem to be playing like middle schoolers right now.

The Kaman foul trouble is killing us right now, especially since D-12 is out.

The Magic are missing some of their free throws.

Corey Corey Corey. You have to look up at the clock every now and then.
