Orlando at Detroit

Orlando can only blame themselves for falling out early in game one. They turned the ball over 20 times and missed 18 FT's. What they did was build some momentum for game two by coming back and making a game out of it. The Piston’s defense is their calling card but remember that Orlando shot 58% in that game and is shooting close to 50% to close the season. It wasn't the defense, it was them. Howard missed 8 of 11 FT's and finished with 13 so you can expect more from him tonight. The Magic also won the rebound battle both offensively and defensively. Howard averaged 22.5-points per game and 11.5-rebounds per game against the Pistons this season so look for him to be around 20, and for the Magic to be in this one late.
