The Magic lost badly to the Spurs early in the season, 128-110, when Tony Parker became the first of many point guards to have a big game against the Magic this season. Parker had 32 on us, over in San Antonio, so now its time to kick them back home with a loss.

Ginobili had 27 off the bench, just adding to the list of guards who have routinely killed us. Lucky for the Magic that those two are great players on a great team so we don't look as bad. Bowen tried to put the clamps on Turk, limiting him to just 9-18 shooting on the night, but Turk still had 26 points.

Dwight needs to play well against Tim Duncan, as he has been held under 20 points for five of the last six games.

This Spurs team is what everybody in the league wants to be like; able to turn it on at any time. Even though the Spurs have slipped up recently, they still are the team to beat in the NBA.

And, check out this post at Third Quarter Collapse, where Ben Q. Rock lays out "Stan's suit-and-turtleneck look [...] squaring off against Andrei Kirilenko's spouse-approved once-a-year extramarital relations". You can vote for Stan (or AK47 if you choose) here.

I'll be at the game with a bunch of family, you guys without FSN should join us... If there is even tickets left.
