End of the 1st qtr in Denver and the Nuggets are up 5 on the Magic. Looking at Gallo looking pretty good early. Javale McGee has so much physical talent, but he's still not able to put it together. Still Nuggets have him and Moz, Koufos and Faried. They look like they've got some good bigs for the future. They need development but geez. Magic are basically just throwing up jumpers, but I give them credit for playing hard in all these games. Not playing well tonight, but they're trying and the youth of the Nuggets is keeping them in it for now. Nuggs are missing tons of point blank layups.

They're actually playing Moz and Javale at the same time. They had Koufos in there for a minute with Javale.

Magic still staying in the game with long bombs and tons of missed layups by the Nuggets bigs. Faried and McGee are amazingly bad if they aren't dunking!

Gallo, Aflalo and Lawson are the ones really getting it done.

Magic would be lost if not for Big Baby Davis. I never really liked him, but I respect how he's improved as a player and stepped up for the Magic this year. He's keeping the Magic in this.

I saw that. McGee looks huge compared to anyone the Magic has on the court.

Ah man Big Babies fat butt just wrecked Faried going for an alleyoop. I hate that crap. He has NO HOPS whatsoever. He can't control his girth flying at a guy that is way up in the air... It's funny cuz big Baby really doesn't have a sense of his self, that he's not as athletic as these other guys. He literally had no shot to stop the play and the refs didn't even call a FOUL. I don't understand how that's possible. OK Faried was able to walk off the court. He looks OK. The Nuggets D has been sloppy and their bigs keep missing easy buckets under the basket.

Do we need the Magic to lose every game and we win our last two to get the 6th spot?

Yes. If the Knicks somehow get Indiana it will be a miracle but this would be another step in that direction.

The Magic are still hanging around. They got the lead back down to 6. Brewer makes a prayer back up to 8pt lead. Ish Smith hits jumper. Miller to Faried for Alleyoop!!! Magic are small and quick with good shooting which is causing some problems, but the Nuggets size is having an impact. Javale with a block!!

Javale and Faried are dominating the Magic on both ends. Alleyoops and blocked shots. Snatching rebounds. I like those two young bigs.

WOW 2 more consecutive alleyoops right on Davis head. Javale is so athletic that it's like Glan Davis isn't even there. All he can do is foul or get posterized!!!

The Bobcats could play a huge role in where the Knicks finish.

Nuggets win 101-74. It got ugly at the end. Nuggets are a bit out of control, but they've got talent. Magic are on the edge. They play hard tho. I have a hard time believing they won't beat the Bobcats tho. You never know, but they have 2 days off and they're at home. I think the Magic will win that game.

I just saw highlights of the Bobcats game. Thomas looked horrific and Silas looked psychotic. It will be interesting to see if anything happens between those two again. Thomas had several horrific turnovers in the highlights.

I'm just so mad about that Cavs loss. It was so unnecessary. All they had to do was come out strong early and the Cavs would've folded. The Knicks gave them confidence rather than take all hope away. This team had been playing so tough on D and to see them just letting the Cavs get off sucked. Now the Bobcats will probably lay down like they have for nearly 20 games now and the Magic who don't deserve it will get the 6th seed. UGH!!!

I agree about the Cleveland loss. The only comfort for me was that they beat NJ. The Cavs and Nets always play the Knicks tough. I don't understand why but the Cavs always play the Knicks tough. I believe they said that the Cavs have beat the Knicks at home 10 consecutive times.
