Posted in The Orlando Magic visited Toyota Center on Saturday night, taking on the Houston Rockets, which on paper seemed to heavily favor the Magic; the size discrepancy at center would make one think that this game would be dictated in the paint. Normally that would be the case as Dwight Howard at 6’11″ had the size advantage [...]

Westbrook Notches Triple-Double, Thunder Edges Magic 125-124
Apparently, the Oklahoma City Thunder tends to benefit with their exposure on national TV as they were undefeated at 6-0 prior to their game against the Orlando Magic Thursday night at Ford Center.

Magic Win Streak Hits Nine, Bounce Undermanned Mavericks 117-107
The Orlando Magic are already reaping the benefits of their trade with the Phoenix Suns when they received Jason Richardson, Hedo Turkoglu and Earl Clark; they also received Gilbert Arenas from the Washington Wizards for Rashard Lewis.

Early Third Quarter Run Helps Magic Defuse Rockets 110-95
Truth be told, when I saw Thursday’s game between the Houston Rockets and Orlando Magic, the very first thing that came to mind was what the winning margin would be for the Magic.

They currently are without Brandon Jennings (broken foot), Calros Delfino (concussion symptoms) and Drew Gooden (plantar fasciitis in his left foot). Nevertheless, they went to Amway Center to take on the Orlando Magic Wednesday and with all things considered, [...]
Magic Make Spurs 10-Game Win Streak Vanish 123-101
Although the San Antonio Spurs were 25-3 coming into their game Thursday night against the Orlando Magic, they have playing an inordinately high number of games recently, having played seven games in just 12 days. And with that usually comes the fatigue that goes with playing that many games. Orlando on the other hand, finally [...]
Hawks Rally Comes Up Short, Suns Hold On 118-114
Imagine this scenario: The Atlanta Hawks on Sunday hosted the Phoenix Suns. The game was pretty much dominated by the Suns early on in the first half while the Hawks rallied, but came up a bit short as Phoenix held on to fend off Atlanta 118-114. Keep in mind that what happened during the game is fairly [...]
Richardson, Nash Lead Suns Past Grizzlies 123-118 In 2 OT’s
ESPN should have televised the Memphis Grizzlies-Phoenix Suns game instead of the Los Angeles Clippers-Denver Nuggets game, which explains why I am a blogger instead of a network TV executive. But I digress. Two teams that are on the upswing got together at US Airways Friday night; the Memphis Grizzlies have a decent starting five [...]
