    But I thought Damperina was the second best center in the league?

    the magic need to trade turkoglu for a nice pf to put alongside dwight and keep rashard at the 3 before theyre contenders in my book. Id like to see Turkoglu for Drew gooden and then put courtney lee in at the 2 and rashard at the 3 with pietrus off the bench.

    With all the 3's they shoot, the Magic will never win big in the playoffs.....

    Exactly. You win and die by all those 3s... and they sure will die by them in the playoffs.

    I remember when they said the same thing about Hakeem's Rocket teams.

    Exactly. Perhaps we should wait until the playoffs are over before we write off a team simply because they shoot too many 3's.

    You can get away with putting Ilgauskus/Wallace/Perkins/Garnett single coverage on Dwight Howard. Hakeem would drop 45 on any of those if they dared to stay at home with the shooters.

    The only way to beat Orlando is to let Dwight get his and guard the other guys tightly.
