Ergh, again. I was hoping to see Chris Webber play - oh well. The whole team was just off tonight. They played well until the final 2 minutes of the first half. Tracy McGrady was not himself tonight - it looked like maybe Doug Christie was bothering him a bit. Juwan Howard had a huge game - and it was nice to see him pick up the slack. Andrew DeClercq and Sean Rooks provided energy and some good minutes tonight at the center position. Steven Hunter has seen decreased playing time - but he still came in and played hard. I like the change of attitude from him. Is it just me, or is Deshawn Stevenson turning into a nice little asset. I like that we can play him at point - although his shot selection is poor when he is running the point. I guess it can be hard to switch mindsets sometimes. There was a time or two when McGrady or Keith Bogans were wide open for shots and Stevenson pulled up for a jumper.
Effort was poor in the second half and this one just got away from them. I think the Magic are now something like 1-11 when I attend their games. Ergh.
