Maybe Kyrie will have another good game. Do we have anyone who can slow down Howard?

Though I do not expect great things, I would be curious to see how Howard deals with Samuels's strength, and Thompson's quickness (if healthy). My true hope is that Kyrie attacks Howard and tries to get him in early foul trouble.
Well at least we're not Detroit!

Dwight has been doing a damn good job of slowing himself down, as of late. I expect a win, unfortunately. The Magic are garbage.

If I recall Andy had a pretty damn good game against Dwight last year before getting hurt. I am interested to see how he does tonight. I'm not saying he can stop Dwight, and I'm not saying trade Andy, but if he has another effort like the last time he played against him, his value would go up another notch imo.
From last years blockbuster deal that supposedly made them contenders to where they have fallen to this season you cant help but feel bad for the Magic fans this year. We went through a somewhat similar situation with our star, and obviously suffered through last year, but with Dwight still there, and everyone just waiting for the other shoe to drop, what a miserable season for them.
I dont care if we win or not, but hope to see an exciting game, and watch Irving grow some more, too bad TT is out. Oh well, I guess I'll just ride the Michael Thompson bandwagon instead.

Orlando got a boost as Glen Davis will be out tonight. I hope we fight hard and make it a competitive game. If we can defend Anderson and Reddick outside and limit them I think we have a pretty good chance.

Dwight should have a good game with his massive weight and strength advantage against Andy but he's been pretty average against some centers he should dominate.

Jamison on pace for 20 rebounds.. Must be something wrong with the scoreboards.

Our worst first half all year imo and we're only down 11 on 27% shooting. Could be a decent loss as Knicks and Nets could take a step above us in the standnings.
