Some say this Orlando Magic team can challenge Boston for the EC crown, I am not convinced of that, however the Pistons will have their hands full against D Howard and his friends.

I think it will still come down to Celtics, Cavs and Pistons.

The Magic are a nice little team. They are pretenders. They have a weak backcourt and with the exception of Howard a soft frontline.

I'm gunna love watching AI and Stuckey eat up Jameer Nelson.

Jameer Nelson has been very good this year.

Did you see what they did to the Hornet, Christmas day ?
88-68 with a 30 point lead at times.
Nelson may be most improved.

I'm not going to enjoy watching Jameer Nelson eat up Stuck/AI. Hopefully, owning the Magic will be something that never changes. It's makes me happy LOL

In general i'm not all impressed with them, but with us teetering it's kinda hard to call.

they are the same team, excpet better, if that makes any sense. Jameer Nelson, who was a liability last year, will probably be a strength this year (he's going to love Iverson's "defense").

Still a three-happy team. However this year they have Battie to keep defenses honest, and Pietrus, who is their best defender.

This is definitely a better team than the one the Pistons eliminated last year, especially Jameer Nelson .

Lets hope the Pistons don't take them as lightly as some of us are. If the Pistons are strugging to beat the Thunder and the Wizards and blowing leads in nearly every game, lets hope they wake up and defend the three and use as many fouls as they have available on Howard.

Oh believe that Jameer will try to get off in this game. I know for a fact that he's happy that Chauncey is not here anymore but he's still sad cause Rodney is going to bug him as well. Watching the Pistons play them last year, Rod really loves to aggravate Jameer. But if Jameer trys to do what I said, he's going to cost his team some what.

We need to win this game for the sole purpose of the meltdown the Magic forum will have. I could make some popcorn and read that for hours.

edited to add;

ORL SG is 6'5.When did that happen? Stuck on him. AI on Jameer. Ok that scares me. Maybe Rip needs to come back more than i originally thought, but no small ball!!
