The Magic need to find a way to keep Grant Hill healthy because they’re a much better team when he’s on the court.  In his last six games, Hill is hitting 54.1% from the floor and he’s averaged 14.2 points, 4.8 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game in those contests.

The Magic rolled to a 54-38 first half lead and never looked back.  The Magic shot well (54.5%), defended well (held Cavs to 39.2% from the floor) and they outrebounded the Cavs 43-31 and all those factors added up to an easy road win.  Grant Hill led the way for the Magic with 22 points and 5 rebounds.  Dwight Howard had a great game inside with 18 points and 13 rebounds.

The Magic improved to 23-19 on the season with this win.  http://scores.espn.go.com/nba/boxscore?gameId=270122005

Coach Brian Hill has been upset with the play of Carlos Arroyo as of late and he has decided to bench him for awhile.  Arroyo has played in 39 games this season and he is averaging 8.5 points, 2.2 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game this season.  Travis Diener is more of a long range shooter type so don’t look for an increase in assists for the Magic.  He has only played in 15 games and is averaging 5.3 points, 0.9 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game.  Look for his numbers to improve with the added playing time.

The Nets outscored the Magic 63-46 in the second half and that doomed the Magic last night.  Hedo Turkoglu led the way for the Magic with 24 points and 8 rebounds.  J.J. Redick had his best game of his rookie season last night with 13 points off the bench.

The Magic fell to 22-19 on the season with this loss.  http://scores.espn.go.com/nba/boxscore?gameId=270120017
