Damn, that's a heartbreaker for the Magic. Close game. Three point shot rims out. It sucks. Any other team agains the Magic and that would've gone down for the opposing team. Good game for the Magic though.

McGrady and Howard... What could have been
I don't care if the Magic lose. But why the heck did Darko not play. Does every coach in the US have something againts him that he can't play? :unsure:

Great effort tonight. Hill better start Darko the next game. Hopefully he'll learn the system soon enough.

Why the hell is Darko not playing. You got freaking 3 freaking Powerfowards and centers. and you don't play darko.... Something wrong with you. You put arroyo in!! come on <_<

Actually they have 4. If you count Garrity as a PF, that's 5. :)

But it's only 2 games and it's becoming old. Come on B Hill, give Darko some light out there.

We are already out of the playoffs, stop dreaming. It's time to experiment. We already know what happens when Darko sits too much on the bench. What we want is to see him in ACTION.

They must be showcasing players because Darko, no matter HOW bad he is, is still better then Garrity.

As for the game, I was pissed because we had that game and our team was shorthanded. We were up 13 and shooting very well. Considering the team we had available though, not surprising we blew it. We did however stay in it and that counts for something. You know, it sucks losing these games but at least we were competitive.

- Kasun showed something tonight but has to get in better shape. And teach Dwight and Battie how to shoot damn free throws.

- I am getting tired of Dwight just staring at players about to dunk it. At least try to block it. He must be afraid of getting put on a poster or something. His offense looked good but damn he has got to get a killer instinct on the defensive end.

- Arroyo is a great passer and better shooter then I thought. Should make a good backup to Jameer (probably next season).

- Stevensons mid-range shot is pretty deadly. And his defense is good. He just needs to get that knee fixed, but I guess he really wants to wait until the offseason.

hill better play darko at home on friday or he should be fired. i understand that he wants to win every game, but you have to play the young guys. garrity should not be playing 20 minutes a game. if hill doesnt want to work with management and develop the young players, then our management should find a coach who will. we needed a big man tonight with dwight in foul trouble at the beginning of the game and darko just sat on his a** all game long. i really like hill as a coach, but my patience is starting to run out. PLAY DARKO!!!

I guess you have to hit bottom before you can climb back up. I have never seen Darko not be able to get in a game when the team was able to dress only nine players. Coach would rather play with eight than nine.

The longer coaches continue to beat his confidence level down, the longer it will take to get it back up. Same as in Detroit, you cannot earn minutes nailed to the bench.

But at least Carlos was able to contribute. That's something.

Yep if Darko doesn't at least get 15 minutes (in shape or not, know the plays or not), Hill should be fired on the spot.

Still very pleased with the effort tonight. It looks like we really might have got addition by subtraction today.
