He is capable, but it will still only happen intermittently for now. With Hill out and Francis having an off night, it gave him more opportunities.
I wouldn't be surprised if a couple years from now Orlando trades Francis for maybe a regular-sized SG or something and goes with Jameer in at PG.

Al Jefferson is better, just ask Celtics fans. Jefferson will average 30 and 15 in his prime, just ask Jefferson fan boys.

Well, tonight, it was pretty much Christie and Nelson running PG for a majority of the game. Which is probably why Francis had a somewhat off night.

I'm a huge Jefferson fan, hell I even started a thread in the Boston forum a couple days ago saying that they needed to start Big Al, but 30 and 15? Damn! I don't think so.

I like both guys to be honest and I don't see the need to run down either guy, but I think Howard will be better as well.

I am assuming that is sarcasm. I hope.

I don't think that's why Francis had an off night. He's shown in the past with Hill and Nelson running the offense that he can excell playing off the ball, I don't know what it was with him tonight. I was just glad to see other guys step up and get the win with Hill out and Francis having an off night. Good sign.

LOL! I'm not the one who said he would average 30 and 15, Celtics fans and Jefferson fan boys are. I see Jefferson as an upgraded shot blocking version of Zach Randolph. Not a bad thing, but not the player I believe Dwight will turn into.

Boxscore
Damn, Iverson finished with 38 and 10, but 9 turnovers. Dalembert had probably the best game of his career, 24 points, 16 boards and 4 blocks. Probably 15 points, 7 rebounds and 2 blocks of those came with 5 fouls.

AI almost went triple-dipping.
AI was great all game, but made some bad plays there at the end that really might have cost Philly the game.

Well you guys saw tonight what happens when you go to Howard in the post. He can flat out score at will and he also draws a ton of fouls. I'll mark this game down because I guarantee Davis won't do it again for another month.
Any way, another terrible night for the Magic on the defensive end. Hero of the game has got to be, I hate to say it, Pat Garrity. He had his best game of the season tonight. Hopefully this will get him going because if he can make those open shots, he is actually worth something.
22 wins for the Magic, in January. The Magic could only get 21 for the entire year with McGrady. I predict this team will end up with 45 or more wins as long as they stay healthy. I didn't like seeing Hill on the bench, but hey, I know it isn't his ankle so that makes me feel better.
Any way good fight, good night.

Garrity and Nelson both stepped it up big time tonight.

Very true on Garrity. That is why I hate him. Every time I get to the point I wouldn't mind trading him for a bag of Doritos, he has a night like this. Those are the shots he can hit and are supposed to hit. If he does that, he is valuable to the team. Most of the other games this year, he has been useless. Hopefully this game will get him going. Last time he had a game like this, he pretty much sucked it up again afterwards.

Agreed. Garrity annoys me so much. Has he done anything worth keeping him on the team before tonight since the Charlotte game? I don't think so. He needs to start knocking down the open shots he gets like he did tonight. He needs to hit them consistently.
