They had 11 first-half turnovers. And they still struggled to start their offense against...

Ish Smith could be perfect fit at point for Magic
In an NBA universe of Blake Griffin, "poster dunks" and age-defying, 30-point, 10-assist performances by 37-year-old Steve Nash, the Orlando Magic's signing of a backup point guard may not seem very significant.
But for the Magic, the arrival of Ish Smith couldn't come at a better time.

Magic Miss Opportunity, Sink Further Down
The Magic cannot blame cold shooting this time. They hit on 48.4 percent of their shots, which is pretty good considering the last week of games. They cannot blame poor ball movement, getting 21 assists on 31 field goal makes.
The opportunity was there. Holding a three-point lead through the first half and erasing a 15-point deficit behind some strong defense and fantastic ball...

In the world of NBA basketball, December 9th 2011 was a day like no other that I’ve ever experienced. The whole week has been crazy, but Friday being the first day that moves could be made official… that took it to another level.

Larry Hughes Flaunts His Insane Riches
Eddy Curry might be the poster boy for the NBA lockout, but Larry Hughes should probably be in the team picture.
Hughes spent 12 seasons in the league. His career averages (14.2 ppg, 3.2 apg, 4.2 rpg) are ok, but not spectacular. His career shooting percentage (40.7%) is awful when you consider his job was to shoot the ball. But he did have a couple of years where he played pretty...
