Orlando jumped out to an early 7-0 lead in the first three minutes but would only score nine points for the remainder of the quarter. Milwaukee took the lead when they went on an 11-0 run as Drew Gooden and Luc Mbah a Moute dropped four points each.

The Bucks punched the Magic in the mouth. There was no doubting that.
Milwaukee had sufficiently frustrated Dwight Howard into a 5-for-15 night from the floor and rendered him almost ineffective offensively. The Bucks had outworked the Magic on the offensive glass and turned almost half of their own missed shots into second-chance opportunities. Orlando cannot score if it does not...

Quentin Richardson had just four points in the game. A minuscule contribution in what amounted to a blowout -- or, at least, easy -- win. Still, he knew how to provide his team with some form of energy in a game that seemed all but over.
Yes, that was Richardson shouting at Minnesota shooters as they lined up for 3-pointers in his corner. Yes, that was Richardson, rollicking and...
