We finally have 50 wins! Turkoglu led us with 24 points, 4 rebounds, 8 assists and 5 turnovers. Lewis hit 4 three-pointers en route to 18 points. Howard added 19 points, yet he had a low rebounding night, finishing with only 5. Despite Howard's low rebounding number, we still won the rebounding battle 38-43. But Dwight needs a lot of credit tonight for his play at the free throw line. He was 13-17 tonight from the charity stripe. Good job Dwight.
Nocioni led the Bulls with 22 points off the bench and 4 three pointers.
Horrible point guard play tonight.. this is inexcusable. The coaching staff HAS to find a way to get more consistent play or we need another starting point guard. Arroyo and Jameer won't cut it if we keep getting performances like tonight's, from them.
“It’s important,” Turkoglu said. “I’m happy to be a part of it. This is my fourth year here. We’ve had ups and downs. This is special.”
Added Lewis, who came to Orlando in a sign-and-trade deal with Seattle: “It lets you know what the future holds for this franchise.”
We know we will be the third seed but we don't know just yet who we will play. Getting the Wizards in the first round is already out of the question. So now its down to either the Sixers or Raptors. It's looking more and more like we will face the Raptors in the opening round. The Raptors and the Sixers each are 40-40, and if they ended the season tied, the Raptors would claim No. 6 because they own the first tiebreaker --- regular-season head-to-head matchup. The Raptors won the season series 3-1.
