    At least we're not down 28-8 against Charlotte like Indiana is.

    I like the way Jeremy was come out. I think we're going to be fine in this game. No way Orlando's midrange game can stay this ridiculous.

    Well the good news is the Rockets can't play much worse the rest of the game. The bad news is I don't know if they have it in them to play well enough to dig themselves out of the hole they dug.

    He drives, but he is hesitant about what he wants to do with it when he gets in the lane.

    I think McHale needs to tell Lin to take over. He's been decent so far, needs to capitalize on this.

    It's a combination of the Rockets not hitting anything and turning the ball over 7 times(the Magic have 0 TOs BTW), while Orlando is hitting everything. Now that being said, the Rockets have to play a modicum of defense tonight. It's not like the Magic are taking a lot of contested jumpers. Most of their makes seem to be wide open.

    Not watching the game. Just box score.

    Have they abandoned the Bev + Lin combo? That used to work pretty well.

    I see what he wants to do. He wants to drive to let the defenders help out and then pass it to either Omer or DMo at the basket.

    I remember the Magic beat the Pelicans good this year because they wouldn't miss from midrange.
