It will be fun to see these two teams go at it tonight. I am sure the Magic will be ready tonight, as they want to give Rudy T. all he can handle. It will be good to see some old faces. Lakers played a tough game last night, barely beating the Clip joint. I think the Magic take this game straight up, as the Lakers may be tired on the end of a back-to-back. Tip off is 8:30.
Yeah. Hopefully Hill can play tonight, but even if he doesn't Steve and Cat usually bring it against the Lakers. I think the Magic can win this one, but not having Cato's gonna hurt.
Yeah Magic already beat the Lakers in November like122-113, or something. Hill was huge in that game with 27pts and 12 rbs. However, their last meeting Cato did not play in. But I just remember it was the Kobe vs Francis game. It was incredible.
Cat did not play the last time as well..... Francis numbers against the Lakers has been good all these while....
since when Francis became such a good FT shooter? does that have anything to do with JVG coaching as well that he doesn't shoot as well last season?
Man, this is a high scoring game, 59-56 at the half....LOL the Rox would have 34-37 points right now.
Steve Francis is NOT a point guard and can't run a fastbreak to save his life. PS - That was a sarcastic remark, but right after I posted that Francis blew what should have been an impossible to screwup fastbreak.
Confidence is the name of the game. Confidence comes from knowing you are doing what you do well. Steve is in his element now. I'm pretty sure Grant Hill has worked with Steve too on his free throws and jumper. Grant Hill is one of the most fundamentally sound players in the league. BTW, I'm looking at the box score for the Lakers/Magic game. I think it's more exciting to look at the box score of this game than to watch the Rockets get blown out.
