Sunday's game between the Cavs and Magic was strange. The Cavs started off great with a makeshift lineup (without LeBron James) and had the game in control, while the Magic, with all of their guys, never got it going early. Then, coach Stan Van Gundy finally found a lineup that worked and Orlando managed to scrape together an ugly win. 星期天魔術對騎士的比賽很奇怪，騎士調整了先發名單(沒有James)而且還掌握了比賽， 魔術則是全員到齊，但卻不能早早操控比數，後來，教頭Van Gundy才找到有用的調度， 奧蘭多才獲得勝利，但贏得很難看 This was an important win for the Magic. Now, combined with the Lakers' loss to the Blazers on Sunday, Orlando has the second-best record in the league. If things finish this way, the Magic have the home-court advantage in the Finals if they meet the Lakers. 這對魔術來說是很重要，現在加上湖人輸給拓荒者，奧蘭多有全聯盟第二好的戰績，若這 樣子進季後賽，魔術若在總冠軍賽對上湖人時會有主場優勢 During the regular season, the Lakers have been considerably better at home than on the road. The Lakers don't look like a championship team when they are on the road. The Lakers need to get good contributions from all the players in the rotation, but they haven't been receiving that on the road. 在常規賽時，湖人讓人覺得他們在主場比在客場還強，湖人在客場的表現看起來實在不像 一支冠軍隊伍，湖人需要在每一個調度上都能獲得貢獻才行，但他們在客場就是沒辦法 As for the Magic, if they were to face the Cavs, that would be the best series of the playoffs. Orlando leads the league in field goal percentage defense, while Cleveland is not bad, either. The Cavs have LeBron James, while Orlando is deep and gets it done thanks to a lot of players. Van Gundy doesn't hesitate to go to his bench guys. He is a great coach -- one of the top three in the league. 對魔術來說，若他們面對騎士隊，這也許會是一場季後賽最精彩的系列賽，魔術是全聯盟 防守最好的一支隊伍，而騎士也不賴，騎士隊有LeBron James，魔術的板凳深度也很夠， 多虧有很多好球員，教頭Van Gundy從不猶豫換板凳球員上場，他是一個偉大的教練，全 聯盟前三好的 Magic center Dwight Howard has been very good. He has improved his game dramatically from last season. He makes better moves with his back to the basket and can finish with either hand. He has shown improved footwork, is a willing passer, and doesn't turn it over when he's doubled. He finds the open man, rebounds, blocks shots and shoots a high percentage. 魔術中鋒Dwight Howard表現很好，他已經比上一季進步非常多，他能做出更精彩的背框 動作且能左右手開攻，他的步法進步許多，他也願意傳球且被包夾時他不會失誤，他能找 到有空檔的人，籃板、火鍋，投籃也都表現很好 Dwight's only problem is his free throw shooting. In practice he can make 18 out of 20, but in games he may be thinking too much. The ball tends to come off the heel of his hands, not his fingertips. 魔獸的唯一問題在於他的罰球，練習時他投20能中18，但在比賽中那就真的是想太多，球 好像是從他手的根部出手，不是手指 Even though the Cavs lost to the Magic on Sunday, they played well without LeBron. I question what coach Mike Brown was doing with his rotation. The Cavs were ahead, lost it and then got back into it, and then Brown finished the game with a weird lineup. It was almost like didn't want to win a very winnable game. 雖然騎士星期天的比賽輸給魔術，他們在沒有LeBron的情況下打得很好，我對Mike Brown 的調度相當質疑，騎士一路往前衝，即使輸了也將比數追回，但Mike Brown卻用他奇怪的 調度讓比賽輸掉，就好像根本不想要贏這場可以贏的比賽 When it comes down to it, this was a game between two of the top three teams in the league (L.A. is the other). 當這情形發生時，這是一場關係到聯盟中前三強隊伍的比賽(湖人是另外那一隊) --
