		<description><![CDATA[The Answer is unequivocally yes. As I watch the NBA these days I cannot help but become disenchanted with the poor play and uneventful nature of most games. It boggles my mind that in an age where athletes are pretty much all  prima donna&#8217;s, that a player of Allen Iverson&#8217;s stature cannot find employment. Why should we even be talking about how a player is in the locker room or how good of a teammate he may or may not be? Are most people afforded the luxury of choosing their coworkers in the real world? The bottom line here is that most professional sports leagues are so diluted that it is almost impossible to field  competitive first teams, let alone reserves. Aside from A.I&#8217;s undeniable stats, he is also regarded as a player who always shows up and gives maximum effort, which is more than we can say for countless professional athletes. Watching my beloved Orlando Magic, it is painful at times to watch the cavalier manner in which some of the Magic players approach playing the game. Dwight Howard&#8217;s constant grinning and Vince Carter&#8217;s half hearted drives to the basket and nonchalant passing down the stretch of games makes [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[   The Orlando Magic have looked pretty good so far this year. A 9-3 record is good enough for first place in the Southeast. Quality wins over the Sixers, Mavericks and Bulls help build some confidence toward the long road ahead. The real season starts for the boys in blue next month though. That’s when we’re going to find out how much progress they’re making as a team this year. They start off on the road in Boston to face the defending champs. Then, after two games at home, they head out on a very tough West Coast swing that includes the Clippers, Blazers, Suns, Jazz and Warriors. They then come home to face the Spurs and Lakers among others and finish off the month on the road again to face the Pistons and Bulls. It’s gonna be a tough month however it winds up and we should know a lot more about this team before New Year’s Day. The key matchups are obviously the Celtics and Pistons. Both are away games and both teams are the elite of the Eastern Conference. The Celtics returned most of their team and have looked like they haven’t taken any steps backwards so [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[   What an outstanding victory for the Magic tonight. It doesn&#8217;t matter if the Mavs have been struggling and it doesn&#8217;t matter that Josh Howard is either blind or stupid. A road win is a road win and the Magic hadn&#8217;t won a game in Dallas since 1997. Jameer Nelson, Mickael Pietrus and Rashard (yes Rashard tonight) Lewis stepped up big in Orlando&#8217;s 102-100 victory tonight. Big Dwight only scored 18 and the rest of the boys stepped up to help out tonight. The Magic trailed to start the fourth quarter 80-72 and outscored the Mavs 30-20 behind Pietrus, Nelson and Lewis. Pietrus, Nelson and Lewis had 20, 21 and 23 respectively which included 6, 8 and 8 in the fourth. Pietrus had that sick killer look on his face when he hit those two late threes and Lewis hit 2 of the final three (Nelson went 1 of 2) put away free throws to finish it. Lewis actually played some good defense on Dirk Nowitzki (no really, he did) and the Magic pulled out a nice come from behind victory. Hedo Turkoglu fouled out with just over two minutes left after another off night offensively for him. The Mavs reporters will have [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[   Sorry it&#8217;s late but it was a long workday yesterday. The Magic beat up the Thunder in Oklahoma City on Wednesday 109-92. Dwight Howard got off something fierce, he had 30/19 to go with 10 blocks that put his league leading total at 35 and gave him his first triple double of the year. He got help from the other four starters who scored in double digits, led by Jameer Nelson and Mickael Pietrus who both scored 17. Turk was off a little while scoring 15 and Rashard Lewis hasn&#8217;t come out of his &#8220;slump&#8221; yet either. This is what the Magic were looking for from Pietrus and Nelson. This team needs these guys to step up outside, especially when Turk is off. Just imagine how good the offense could be if Ra-Soft Lewis ever started scoring consistently like he&#8217;s been expected to since coming over in the sign-and-trade deal that got him six years and $118 million. I don&#8217;t think we can label him a bust and it&#8217;s too early to really call him a true disappointment yet, but he&#8217;s working on it. It was a nice victory on the road but we can&#8217;t get over excited about, [...]]]></description>
