GAME RECAP

It's been a while since a single player earns the title for a team or even manages to win a series. But that's evidently what the Magic experimented with. Dwight Howard had an excellent game, the best of series. But the fact that he scored 87% of the team's points did not help at all. Turkoglu scored the 2 other points, but other players did literally NOTHING. They kept jacking threes (0-for-5) and did not seem to adjust at all. The Buck somehow tied the series at the Amway Center and are coming back home for Game 7. How did the Magic lose the home court advantage AND a 3-1 series lead? But, that won't be noticed if Game 7 is won, so you'd guess right that the Magic coaching staff and (hopefully) the players will be going all out. But another obstacle has appeared: Carmelo Anthony. The superstar small forward has returned and will definitely fight hard for this game. Q Rich is gonna have a hard time for sure.

PLAYER OF THE GAME

Dwight Howard. End of story. Too bad that his performance wasn't enough to carry the Magic to a victory. Strangely the Magic didn't seem to realize that.
