    I swear Magic had five layups because Brewer couldn't stay in front of his man and Dwight had to leave his man to cover it up.

    I don't know how many times this needs to be said, but Dwight was just amazing tonight. Didn't force anything and just played great defense. His impact on the defensive end can never be overstated.

    I simply cannot wait until D'mo is back so he'll have a front court partner that can actually play some defense.

    People downplaying Orlando like they're some bottom feeding team like philly. The same team that took okc to double ot a few days ago.:rolleyes:

    No Dwight, no win tonight.

    We built a nine point lead in the third quarter when Capela was playing. McHale took Capela out (you just can't say to me that a 19 year old was tired with 5 minutes of playing time) for some stupid rotation or whatever. Orlando tied the game in 3 minutes or less. We will not win every single time having to overcome this type of poor coaching.

    Brewer has been the worst player on the team this year. Ugly ugly ugly. Don't get why he was in during crunch time

    LMFAO no it won't be a wake up call. This group plays with fire and thinks as long as they walk away with a win, all is good... and THAT attitude is the biggest difference between the Rockets and Warriors. One team is disciplined and strives for perfection and the other just tries to get over.

    Yeah it definitely feels like DMO is the X FACTOR in this soap opera...can't wait to see if this turns out to be the case

    You don't have to swear, it's the truth. There's no accountability. Playing horrible defense "Stay out there! and play harder, your job is safe!" lol.

    They were on a back to back while we were rested at home

    Don't you see the difference?

    They lost by 1 to the Wizards, 3 to OKC in 2OT, and 5 to CHI, all Top 4 in their Conference. The Magic are no joke - not sure how this is an "embarrassing win", but whatever.

    OKC just lost to Toronto. Lowry and Scola have them at 5-0.

    Agreed. They've got the toughest schedule so far and have played everyone tough...took okc to a 2nd overtime a few days ago

    This Magic team isn't a walk over any more. Ask the Thunder.

    1-4 record not indicative of Orlando Magic's talent. Every game they played this season were close against good teams.

    Exactly. Hayes should have played during that stretch. Don't see the point of signing him if he won't even get minutes when there are injuries.

    Was Thornton giving up drives like that? McHale benched the wrong dude.
