    Magic are 4-1, and Hedo averages 20.8, 7.6 and 4.6.

    Did anyone see Hedo's performance coming when they added Rashard? Does he always start the season this way?

    If anything, i expected him to have a reduced role, from last year, when he averaged 13, 4, and 3.

    Grant Hill was stealing his shine.

    Did you see how he and countryman Okur performed during the European Tournament??? WoW...they totally screwed the national team over. They might as well not show up.

    I watched two Turkey games and these two were playing like they were the 8th or 9th option on the team. I'm talking about two NBA stars here. Shoots like 20% from the field, don't go after any rebounds, no hustle, no defense..the list goes on and on. Perhaps they just wanted to rest their bodies for the regular season, which is evident seeing how well they're performing now.

    Thanks.

    I just thought T'Glu and R'Lew were very similar, with Rashard being the much better version of a soft, jump-shooting 6'10" guy with handles but little interior game.

    Has anyone seen a game where these two share the court? I guess their front line basically has two small forwards combined with Howard at center? I guess it is working. Interesting, to me at least.

    I haven't taken Turkey-Glue seriously since his flame-out on the Spurs. Good for him.

    Haven't seen the Magic play yet. Looking forward to it when I can.

    Over the season, I believe their backcourt will kill them. Jameer Nelson and Keith Bogans are the current starters, backed up by Arroyo, Dooling, Redick. Need I say more?

    the major difference is that he's playing the 4 this season.

    either he or shard will have an advantage playing against the other teams 4.
