Two Possessions That Will Keep Magic Fans Awake - TrueHoop
Kevin Arnovitz breaks down the two crucial possessions that cost the Magic a win.

Worst of Game 4 - Basketbawful
"The Magicians bricked 15 free throws. Dwight Howard was responsible for eight of those misses (he was 6-for-14 on the night). Hedo Turkoglu -- a career 80 percent foul shooter -- bonked five (he went 8-for-13)."

The 10 Best "Bad" Shot Shooters in the NBA - Dime Magazine
"10. Tracy McGrady: Five years ago, T-Mac might have been No. 1 on this list. But now Ron Artest takes more bad shots than he does on the Rockets. At least when Tracy is in the game to take them, he still makes them."

Joey Dorsey is a beast....

I was worried about that gap we had at the center position but after watching that video of him working out and trying to give his all, I think that he would be the solution to that problem…if he keeps practicing hard and watches that fascitis, I think the Rockets will benefit greatly from his return. I like the way he wants to learn from Scola and Hayes. It shows that he has the passion and drive to return and make the difference that he was supposed to make when he was drafted. Keep doing your thing Joey Dorsey and hopefully we’ll see you in a Rockets jersey next season healthy and ready to go!
