NBA Wrap: Magic win in LA, thats rare
Magic Rally in Fourth to Beat Lakers
The Magic don’t like going to Los Angeles. They have lost 10 straight games against the Lakers in Los Angeles but they are playing so well right now they were actually able to make a comeback win. They have only won 3 of their last 18 trips to the Forum. Ouch.
Dwight Howard actually looked human in this game scoring 17 points with 8 rebounds. He’s had a sick season as are the Magic. Rashard Lewis scored 18 points with 7 assists and Hedo Turkoglu added 14 points and sparked a fourth quarter comeback by hitting a 3 pointer that put the Magic ahead for good.
Sonics and Warriors playing with fire
The Warriors got off to a hot start in this game. They were up 17-8 in the first quarter but during a timeout a spotlight caught on fire in Seattle. Firefighters had to be called to the scene. They were able to extinguish the fire but not the Warriors hot streak. The Warriors took the game 109-96.
