Some of you guys are crazy when it comes to complain about JJ not playing. Stan is obviously trying to fix the Magic's problem with blowing big leads. I say let Stan do his thing.

Good win.

I'm glad to see Jameer back and playing well.

Just checked the box score -- Nelson, Hedo and Lewis had a nice distribution of assits, combining for 18 total between the three.

The best thing I saw though was some intensity. Hopefully, Keyon's x-ray comes back fine. I think it will, they implied that he was fine and that it was just extra precautionary. With our history, I'm glad to hear they are being extra cautious.

nah, not complaining, just wondering.. it just makes no sense, the only sense it makes to me is. Bogans is still being showcased... I think they are trying to find a new home for him, because to not want to trade JJ and not play him in a blow out, just proves we are trying to get Bogans to stat pad..But the way he has been playing is stat loss....


I wish he just got like 5 minutes a game at least, but whatever.. :[

Nelson hopefully is back! :pray:

Great game to watch. One of the best of the year. Everyone played well.

'Shard with a nice all around game, haven't been able to say that in a while.

Glad to see Jameer back on track.

Triple subway player of the game? Dooling, Cook & Nelson. Keyon does not like sharing his award lol.

I just joined in on the game thread but am I the only one who noticed when they showed the preview for the Cavs game and it has LeBron and Gooden's NBA pictures on the screen that Drew isn't even looking at the camera?

That basically sums him up to me.

Jameer was awesome. He keeps playing like that he becomes the starter again real fast.

Jameer 8 assists and only 1 turnover in 25 minutes. Stan must've wanted to give him motivation.

Good win tonight. It's great to see this team holding it together. I'll admit, I saw us falling apart again this season.

Watching the Suns/Hornets game now, and im convinced that the only reason Ryan Bowen is still in the league is because of his comedic value. You cant help but laugh when he plays.

:o

So you don't think he is already the starter after tonight's game and will definitely be the starter for next game?

He had a fantastic game, but you never know with Stan. He might not make the change right away.

In Jameer's case, it might be better to take it slow, to make him gain his confidence back.

I think Van Gundy just gave a good indication of why doesn't flood the bench players on to the court at the end of game which we are ahead by a reasonable margin.

I don't think he was directly responding to a question regarding it, but he did go off talking about Reggie Miller and Tracy McGrady moments, where a player can, and has, drop a lot of point very fast at the end of a game and you could easily lose a game that appeared to already be in the bag.
