Magic at New York

The Magic win two games in a row for the first time since February 2nd as they beat the New York Knicks, 94-89. Dwight Howard came up with two huge blocks in the last minute and Jameer Nelson tied the game and put the Magic ahead for good on back-to-back three pointers. Aside from the turnovers in the second half, I thought the coaching was very good. You won't hear that very often from me, but tonight that was the difference. With the win, the Magic are a half game aheaed of New Jersey in 7th place. Also, the Magic are now two and a half games ahead of the Knicks and 1 game ahead of Indiana. And though probably out of reach for the Magic, the team is only five and a half games back from Toronto, Washington and Miami. So, as bad as things have been the last 3 months, the Magic are certainly capable of putting a run together.
