great game so far. Cook seems to have done a pretty good job in the 1st quarter too.

Nice defensive play by Howard. Got a good 4 minute break to start the 4th as well.

Idunkonyou

Man Howard has only got one touch the entire 2nd half so far. I guess Stan was pissed at Lewis for not getting more involved because he has been on fire in the 2nd half and get the majority of the shots.

The bench was really a key tonight, wish reddick could have gotten some burn though

it looks like Reddick is not for NBA, remember Trajan Langton? i think the same story here...just Langton probably was better defender...

Idunkonyou

The problem with Reddick is the fact he was playing a lot in preseason, even starting, looking great and then he broke his hand. Then he got a back injury. Injuries basically forced him out of the rotation and until the Magic start playing badly, he won't be back in it. With Evans playing great tonight, it will be even harder now.

Babir

every year he has injuries...he is just too weak for the NBA...

Idunkonyou

You could be right. I almost want to see the Magic package him, along with Arroyo for a pass first, shoot only when open, PG.

Babir

we can add Garrity to the package...

Switch providers. I am getting Dish Network installed today. It's the only thing you can do to make them take notice they f'd up.

Since we added Cook I don't see any reason to keep Garrity. He had a slightly good run during the time Tmac was here but he's had some opportunities the last few years for a guy whose only role is to hit wide open 3s ... well, he hasn't even been doing that.

I think Reddick can still have a role on this team. I'm not sure if SVG is a coach that will give him the opportunity though. Like Kapono, JJ might bounce around on a few teams before he finds a home. But at some point with Dwight down low JJ's outside shooting ability could be valuable. Too early to give up on him IMO.

Yeah, I'm switching to DirectTV when I move in a few weeks. Wish it were sooner though.

Never liked Garrity, dont know why but just never did. Maybe we can get a serviceable big man for them?
