Orlando Magic @ Detroit Pistons Game Thread
Tonight should be the night that the Magic get put out of their misery so to speak, and are officially eliminated from playoff contention. A loss tonight eliminates the Magic and also move them into a tie with the Clippers, which is good in terms of draft position.

Re: Orlando Magic @ Detroit Pistons Game Thread
Howard only 2-9, I have a feeling he'll turn it around second half.

Re: Orlando Magic @ Detroit Pistons Game Thread
That game was lame. Howard had 17 after 3 and didn't score in the 4th. We aren't making the playoffs, just give Howard his touches.

Re: Orlando Magic @ Detroit Pistons Game Thread
Nelson, Howard and Augmon were the only ones to show up tonight. Francis basically took the night off.

Re: Orlando Magic @ Detroit Pistons Game Thread
..
Watching Dwight get deep position all night and not touch the ball, every night, is getting very frustrating. I saw once tonight Dwight looking very disgusted after Francis looked him off when he had good position.

Re: Orlando Magic @ Detroit Pistons Game Thread
Kasun is an idiot, and Darko absolutely sucks.
Nelson is a beast. 29 points, 8 assists, 5 steals, 4 rebounds, and 5 threes tonight.

Re: Orlando Magic @ Detroit Pistons Game Thread
Howard has pretty much owned the Pistons this year. If we would have used him correctly, he probably would have averaged over 30 points a game against them.
Nelson having the best game of his rookie year IMO.

Re: Orlando Magic @ Detroit Pistons Game Thread
Man, even in defeat I come away completely pumped up about the Magic. Jameer Nelson is the steal of this draft, no question in my opinion. 30 points, 5-8 3-pointers. It's mind boggling how much his jumper has improved this year, and his 3-point shot is now a weapon as well. Next year, forget about it. You know Jameer will be working hard this offseason. He's going to have a huge year next season, as will Dwight. Magic fire Gabriel, look what they do in their first draft without him. The future is definitely bright with Jameer and Dwight on our side.

Re: Orlando Magic @ Detroit Pistons Game Thread
I would give Weisbrod an A+ on the draft, but just about everything else he's done has been horrible from running T-Mac out of town to giving away Mobley.
