Is CLeetoris the man who can FINALLY stop Joe Johnson from killing us? For his sake and our sake I hope he is because we can't afford to have Joe Johnson even go for 30 points on us tonight. Stop Johnson for these two straight games would definitely put Lee into the consideration of still starting even when Pietrus returns.

Some Hawks fans seem to be talking [their team up], so I want both of these bad and I'm sure our guys do simply because of:
1. Lost to them Opening Night
2. They own us for some reason
3. Division games are key

Good thread bro. I'm having computer problems at the house. Otherwise, I would've had it made by now. It will probably be a few days b4 I can get back on line here.

The Hawks may have our number in the past matchups. Let's just hope that this time, the Magic can take care of business tonight. Go Magic!

Well, these are great of course. But remove make-up, take high-res pics when they wake up in the morning; then we will see the real beauty (or ugliness).

I for one always defend natural beauty, that is why I expect a huge and easy win tonight. This is the nature of this business.

Weak prediction from me. I see both teams winning at home, which favors you all big time in the division race. Great job on the gamethread. That was really nice.

Gotta love this team!

I luv the baby Howard. His energy and his youth combine for one of the great sportsmen in the world.

Gotta love Lewis for his incredible ugly looking shots that you always know will go in.

Hedo is my hero, whether he scores or not, his intelligence and versatility, along with his great playmaking is invaluable asset for the team.

Screw Bogans and Pietrus. Future of our SG position must be JJ and Lee. Great combo. 5 years later, Magic will have hard time keeping them both at one position.

Lee is a great warrior, just like Gortat. His hustle and energy brings the team another dimension.

JJ, who can't love his beautiful shooting style. His defense is as good as anyone else, and I believe Magic should sign him into a long deal when his price is cheap (now).

Nelson is more like a midget SG. All he does is bring the ball to the other side to Hedo's hands. Yet, when he is on, he IS on. He can't pass as good as Hedo, but still, he is invaluable for the team. He is like a victory cigar.

Battie is also one of my favorite centers. If he had a starting role, I am sure he would average incredible numbers and people would be talking about getting him, like they are now for Kaman, Camby or any other center.

GOTTA LOVE THIS TEAM. A win is in order!
