-Rob Peterson of NBA.com reports that Jameer Nelson is still very much a part of the team despite sitting out the last few months with that torn labrum. Nelson can be seen lightening the mood in the locker room and taking leadership behind closed doors. All I can say, the Magic have to be considered a favorite to win the East next year with his return.
-Mike Bianchi of The Orlando Sentinel is still a little miffed about a USA Today article that overlooked Dwight Howard as an MVP candidate. He makes his case that Howard is the most overlooked player in the NBA. In all fairness, though, it is LeBron James' trophy to lose. Be happy Howard is going to get the Defensive Player of the Year award.
-Looks like Orlando will not have a draft pick this year, as The Orlando Sentinel's Brian Schmitz reports. Which will make all my draft coverage completely useless... or is it?
-Kyle Hightower of The Orlando Sentinel describes Courtney Lee's struggles defending the top talent as a rookie. Interesting little argument about the star-leaning calls of the referees. But, rest assured, Lee is doing a fantastic job and is not afraid of guarding anyone at this stage of the season.
-Magic radio producer Scott Anez comments on the return of Rashard Lewis' stroke as we enter the stretch. Sure, he missed that wide open three to tie Wednesday's game. But Lewis has been a lot better recently and is the key to any success the Magic might have in the postseason.
-Cavs should be focused tonight after their 13-game winning streak was snapped by the Washington Wizards last night.
