123 points,WOW! Its been a long time since weve seen those sort of numbers. Jameer getting 12 assists in game two under SVG also goes to show what we all suspected,that bsh was complete garbage as a coach.

Hill has been quoted as saying he doesn't understand why he was fired. Half the team hated him and he played Hill & Battie instead of Darko, Redick & Bogans.
Best quote from the Sentinel game summary:
Redick was tuckered out because, this time, the Magic ran the floor. 'Coach told us we could either run tonight or sprint tomorrow (in practice),' center Dwight Howard said.

Jameer Nelson:
2 preseason games
18 assists
2 turnovers
I know it's only the preseason, but that's pretty damn impressive.
