They couldn't miss in the first half, the Hawks couldn't buy a shot. It was simple as that. Pride, shmide, if the other team is shooting like that, you need to be having a decent shooting night to stick around. Their incredible shooting coincided with our horrible shooting. That leads to beatdowns.

I will say this though, I have been waiting for the bottom to fall out on this "Jameer Nelson's Jumpshot" and it doesn't look like its going to happen. I thought he was going through a hot streak or something, but nah, he has really transformed his shot and become quite deadly with it.

I wasn't gonna post today, like it would help anything, but didn't Orlando blow the hawks out last year as well? It looks like same halfime score from last season in Orlando. :evil: Still can't find the open man on D as the Magic made it rain as usual.

Damn shame. Like in the movie Life Cantgetright. Who's going to Philps Sunday? How about someone have a sign with FRAUDS on it. No need to get airtime on national tv.

Off to the Sixers game. The good news (besides the great deal I just got on my insurance) is that the Sixers can't make it rain from 3-point Land, and unlike Dwight, the Sixers' "inside force," Sammy Dalembert, has made a Yinka Dare-like 8 assists all year. The Hawks' "Invisible Man" perimeter D should be able to adjust to this team favorably.
