OAKLAND -- J.J. Redick scored 10 of his 22 points in a long-distance flurry early in the fourth quarter Monday night, propelling the Orlando Magic into a double-digit lead on its way to a 102-94 victory over the previously streaking Golden State Warriors at Oracle Arena. After the teams had played evenly through three quarters and exchanged three-point plays to begin the fourth, the Magic, coming off an emotional win the night before against Dwight Howard and the Lakers, got a 3-pointer from backup E'Twaun Moore and a driving hoop from Arron Afflalo to go up by five. Orlando never trailed again, with Redick burying a long 2-pointer and a 3-pointer on consecutive possessions to push the advantage to 82-74. After Stephen Curry and Glen Davis traded three-point plays and Nikola Vucevic and David Lee matched single free throws, Redick then hit again from beyond the arc and added two free throws on Orlando's next possession, extending the lead out to 91-80 with 5:06 to go. ...

There was something different about the night of Sunday, December 2, 2012. Something that is a rarity in modern day professional athletics. Sometimes there are not rational explanations for why unexpected events occur. The numbers do not always tell the entire story and you do not play a basketball game on paper. The only numbers that really mattered on this night were 113 and...

A let down would have been understandable for the Magic as they traveled upstate from an emotional victory over the Lakers on Sunday night. Even Orlando fans might have excused it thanks to the gravity of what defeating Dwight Howard meant to a lot of fans.
Jacque Vaughn though called it a "typical win."
Again, it certainly was not that. But maybe it is becoming...

The Lakers may have suffered a devastating, humiliating, humbling defeat at the hands of the lowly Orlando Magic on Sunday, but Ron Artest actually had himself quite the offensive outing. World Peace scored 15 points, made the 1,000th three-pointer of his career, and got the Lakers off the schneid with this driving slam dunk over a much younger and slightly taller Moe Harkless…...

In a brief interview with this newspaper after the Lakers’ 113-103 loss Sunday to the Orlando Magic, Nash said the non-displaced fracture in his left leg hasn’t healed enough for him to play in at least the Lakers’ three-game trip this week.

There was an edge to the Magic from the opening tip. A sharpness about the way they cut. A crispness to the way they passed the ball. An extra bit of focus on defensive rotations.
No one said this game mattered more. But to see the Magic bench explode with every made 3-pointer. To see the team play with nothing to lose (or at least like they did not have a game against Golden...
