GAME RECAP

Is a sweep possible? It would seem so, after 2 wins at the Bradley center to completely jeopardize the Bucks' home court advantage. Stan van Gundy and his team surely must have their minds on that, as the Magic come back to Orlando for games 3 and 4. An excellent opportunity to conserve energy and gain momentum for the next series. Then again, the Bucks are still in the series and just 1 win could turn the series around. But, as history has told, if the Magic can win Game 3, the series is theirs. The Magic performed excellently on defense, as expected, but turnovers remain a problem. It may be too late for the Bucks to change the direction of this series, but the next opponent could easily take advantage of all the Magic's turnovers. It's something to really work on.

PLAYER OF THE GAME

JJ Redick had a stupendous night, notching 9 points, and not missing a single shot all game, including free throws. Such nights are not often for him, as he performs consistently, but not explosively. But every time he is on fire like that it's always very helpful.
