		<description><![CDATA[The Orlando Magic, fresh from a night off, strolled into Utah to take on a Jazz team who just suffered a debilitating loss the night before to the World Champion Los Angeles Lakers. A perfect scenario for the Magic to continue on their winning ways. As expected the Jazz looked sluggish early on and the Magic were hitting on all cylinders, building what you would think would be an insurmountable 18 point lead. Well, think again folks, because the always tough at home Utah Jazz had other plans. I can&#8217;t help but think that the momentum change was spurred on when Rashard Lewis pulled a Scottie Pippen in the 2nd quarter; refusing coach Van Gundy&#8217;s orders to get back in the game. Lewis, saddled with 2 fouls, later claimed he felt Ryan Anderson had it going and didn&#8217;t want to interrupt his hot streak.  Unbelievable as it sounds for a player making a cool $118 millions bucks to refuse a coaches instruction. Stan Van Gundy himself, who has coached some questionable characters in his career, claims he has never had a player question his authority in this manner. Even if Rashard Lewis thought he was being unselfish, is this the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In what would best be described as a shoot out between the Magic and Golden State Warriors, two clearly unevenly matched teams, saw the Magic prevail in relatively easy fashion. Yes, the Warriors kept it close with great offensive performances by Monta Ellis and a career night from Anthony Randolph. Unfortunately, that simply was not enough to derail the Magic who continue to stay on their winning track. Once again, Dwight Howard was plagued with foul trouble, which doesn&#8217;t really concern me anymore. Since the Magic seem to play just as well, if not better, with him riding the pine. Vince Carter is showing that he can still carry a team at this stage of his career, at least offensively. Heck he even dished out seven assists and grabbed 5 boards. Mickael Pietrus also came up big against his former compadres with a season high 22 points and Rashard Lewis chipped in a quiet 20 points. Another bright spot for the Magic continues to be the steady play of Jason Williams. True, the Warriors were able to expose the Magics lack of speed in the backcourt, with the slow footed JJ Redick and aging Jason Williams. However, Jameer Nelson will [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The idiots on the four letter network keep driving me insane with their doubting of the Magic because of their schedule. It&#8217;s not college football you assholes! They don&#8217;t get to pick who they play, they play the schedule they&#8217;re dealt and all they can do is win. Guess what dumbasses, they&#8217;re winning! It&#8217;s not like they&#8217;re playing St. Mary&#8217;s high school or a pickup game in the back yard. They&#8217;ve won on the road against the Western Conference and they&#8217;ve beaten good teams at home. They beat up on San Antonio and New Orleans at home and won tough games on the road. They&#8217;re doing this all without really having the entire team clicking on all cylinders. It took Lewis a while to get his offense going and Dwight Howard hasn&#8217;t exactly been lighting things up lately while he nurses an injury. They won while Nelson and Pietrus were out and nothing seems to be slowing them down at this point. Since their tough loss in Boston earlier this month the Magic are 13-1, with the only loss being on a last second shot by Grant Hill in Phoenix. I&#8217;m sick of hearing people doubt this team because they want [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Magic headed out west last week looking to remove any doubts any of us may have had about them and what they could accomplish this year. I&#8217;m on board now! They came out last night in a game that could&#8217;ve easily been dropped with Howard out and the boys lagging from the tough trip that it was. Jameer Nelson wasn&#8217;t about to let that happen though. Nelson stepped up a dropped 32 points on the Warriors, which matched a career high, as he dropped bombs from the arc in the fourth quarter in finishing off Golden State. Nelson has been out of his mind lately and there&#8217;s nothing prettier than that high arching shot of his going through when he&#8217;s on. The way he shoots really lends to prolonged slumps during a long season, but when it&#8217;s on it&#8217;s sooooo pretty. Turkoglu was driving the lane like a wild animal and Marcin Gortat stepped up with a 16/13 effort in Howard&#8217;s absence. We have come to expect this type of play from Turk, but Nelson and Gortat have shown tremendous strides in their game and the mental toughness they both displayed on this road trip really impressed me. Turk [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ll have to cover 2 games at once again as I freakin work too much. The game in Phoenix didn&#8217;t have the Shaq/Howard crap that I had anticipated, but it turned out to be a great game. The one in Utah amounted to a melodramatic road game without much intrigue. Let&#8217;s go. The Magic went to Phoenix and played an absolutely great game against a good team that went down to the wire. Turk shot like shit the entire game until hitting another clutch shot to put the Magic ahead with 9 seconds left. The worst part of the whole thing came when Grant freakin&#8217; Hill took a beautiful pass from Amare Soudemire and hit a reverse layup that won the game. Dwight Howard left the game with a sore knee, that will hopefully not keep him out long, after only playing 22 and a half minutes of game time and really wasn&#8217;t much of a factor in things. The Magic did a great job of moving the ball and spreading out the scoring, but in the end it wasn&#8217;t enough. I take solace in the fact that the Magic were in this game, and almost won it, on the road [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Magic looked very good for most of the game last night and were handling the Blazers at home pretty well for most of the game. That was until the fourth quarter. The Magic were hitting threes and playing well until the Blazers came at them with the zone defense and some offensive firepower provided by LaMarcus Aldridge and Brandon Roy who combined for 19 points in the fourth quarter. The Magic slumped a little in the fourth but a couple threes by Jameer Nelson and Rashard Lewis helped them keep it close until Hedo made that ridiculous three pointer in the closing seconds to give the Magic a 109-108 road victory. That shot was silly and would&#8217;ve won a game of H.O.R.S.E, much less an NBA game. After the game Turk and coach Stan Van Gundy joked that that was the way it was drawn up and intended to go. Nice to see some personality in these guys who rarely show any and this team is really going good right now. It&#8217;s easy for everyone to smile and laugh when they pull out victories like that against tough teams during tough road trips. The celebration after the game was [...]]]></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>
