Same keys as yesterday: focus and defense. Yesterday the Magic sleept walked thru most of that game. They cant repeat that again. I do however wonder if the Magic broke Philly's will after the last game last week. We destroyed them in that 4th quarter.

3rd time this month we face Philly, would be awesome to win all 3. :)

Would like it if our guys would show up early this time.
Iggy and Andre will get theres, just a matter of neutralizing the others.

Dalembert should just stay hurt, he wants none of Air Garrity.

76ers will come out hot probably score bettween 25-30pts in the 1st we will have like 20-24pts after the 1st, But then we will go ahead and work these guys like we did last time.

being the second night of a back to back i can see us being a lil off from long distance... should make for a dominant game for turk (slashing) and dwight (dunking)... dwight will break thier will in the first quarter with multiple throwdowns.... if we can go back home on a 4 game streak it could be big for us...

Is there a starting PG on any other team that you don't feel this way about?

You probably feel this way about most team's back PGs - with them starting here instead.

But still 59 (including Dooling) starting PGs & backup PGs > Nelson.

Right?

im sure philly will be ready, but i think we come out with a lot more intensity then we did last night and take care of business,..... last game four players for the 76'ers scored 89 of the 99 pts, so lets try to slow down their guards

I'd like to think that the Magic can't shoot as bad as they did in the first half against NJ (0-7 from 3 pt range). I'd also like to see a little more fire from the starters; NJ's offense helped the defense with that Brian Hill inspired offense so I'm not sold on the intensity yet.

I'd also like to see if JJ can get some time against the likes of Rodney Carney.

Last nights game was so slow, I don't think a back-to-back will be an issue.

So will Dalembert play today ? I thought he was out.
Either way don't matter. Dwight will contain him, I hope.

Shard was picture perfect against the Nets, hopefully we'll get him some more touches this time. He was 8 for 10 and then we stopped giving him the ball.

carney is one of the most athletic guys in the nba. he's a human pogo stick. Albeit, he sucks, a 6-6 crazy athletic is not the best match up for alittle jj redick.

sure am, after watching the game last night, i'm less than optimistic unless they turn it around tonight. I'm just not a homer.
