Magic(11-4) @ Celtics(5-9)

Ryan Anderson needs to learn how to protect the ball at the rim. A man 6'11 with decent athleticism shouldn't get blocked as much as he does.

I was beginning to think I was the only one who notices how often he doesn't finish... thought I was taking crazy pills.

I'm over this game already. Wish the game thread for the Pacers game was up so that the memory of this game thread can be washed away...

Me too. It was so brutal that I think my brain refuses to accept that it even happened. Besides, the Magic are often at their worst when they have too much rest and/or when they play against a team with injured starters.

I'm looking forward to the Pacers game. Can't believe they're now 2nd in the East. Actually, both conference standings are looking strange during this crazy season.

From OPP:

The 56 points scored by the Magic broke the franchise record for the fewest points scored in a game of 57, set in December 1996 against Cleveland.

The 16 of 65 FG shooting (24.8%) by the Magic broke the franchise record of lowest FG percentage in a game of 25%, set in November of 2003 against New York.

The 16 field goals made by the Magic shattered the franchise record of fewest FGs in a game of 21, set on five previous occasions.

The Magic became just the third NBA team in the last 27 seasons to score 60 or fewer points in a game along with FG shooting of 25% or less.

No Magic player shot better than 40% from the field. Ryan Anderson had the worst game of his career with 0 points on 0 for 8 FG shooting.

Lastly, the Celtics were perfect in 19 free throw attempts. This was the ninth time in franchise history that a Magic opposing team was perfect from the FT line, and the second-most makes without a miss.
