Links: SLAM goes Nutzz

by Lang Whitaker Three questions worth answering from Game 4: 1) Should we blame the Orlando loss on Dwight Howard for missing free throws down the stretch? Dwight is my guy, but yes, absolutely, he deserves at least partial blame for the loss. Of course, every Orlando player should get a little heat. Jameer Nelson should’ve played up on Derek Fisher on that three point attempt. With the game tied, there’s no way Orlando should’ve burned two timeouts and still ended up with Mickael Pietrus taking their final shot of regulation. Sure, Dwight played an awesome game, finishing with 16 points, 21 rebounds and 9 blocked shots. But Duh-wight also had a whopping 7 turnovers (as many as all of the Lakers players had combined), and he shot a miserable 43 percent from the free throw line. Hey, It’s not every day a Magic player can resemble both Shaq and Nick Anderson. Those kind of numbers might win you a Division, or maybe even a Conference. But they aren’t good enough to get you a Champions...
