Amazing what a couple of young talented picks who work hard and are able to stay healthy can do for a franchise. Even though we're below .500 right now I feel like all our patience and hoping is finally starting to pay off.

Incorrect. Oladipo and Payton have led Orlando to a winning record. They are 9-8 right now!

...Oh, you meant Wiggins and Towns!

Seriously though, Orlando seems to be one of these teams where they have multiple guys playing average to slightly above average ball, without any dominant force, but no one playing poorly either. And like all Scott Skiles teams, they will defend like hell. This won't be an easy out....

Anyone know if KG is playing tonight? He typically plays in the home games right?

I'm sure he is, TU...he's only missed 2 games so far, and both were BTBs.

Orlando is good, but I think this is a game we need to win. Sure, they have a winning record and have won three in a row. But they were home games against not very good teams, and their road record is 2-5 with their only victories on the road against woeful Philly and the Pelicans. Plus we should be at full strength except for Pek, and we know how much better this team plays with Ricky on the court.

What makes Orlando good? Two things...length, and tough defense. Because of their length, I'm hoping Sam goes back to his long defensive starting lineup with Prince and Wig at the wings. It's time for the Martin starting experiment to end, because we don't want him leaving Fournier open at the start of both halves.

I'd like to see Fournier get dunked on tonight.

I'm here watching warmups. KG keeps shooting and hasn't missed a shot yet. At least 20 shots. He looks determined and focused.

If practice means anything, I'd say that KG and Shabazz will shoot well tonight. :)
