ESPN TrueHoop: Seven Reasons to Fear the Orlando Magic

Seven Reasons to Fear the Orlando Magic - TrueHoop By Henry Abbott - ESPN

Good article. The summary is:
1. Rafer Alston is getting comfortable with the offense.
2. Dwight Howard can and will kick it out of the post...and his shooters will make it easy for him.
3. Dwight Howard's presence makes it hard for opponents to run basic offensive sets.
4. Smart perimeter defenders + Howard behind them = Tough outings for slashers.
5. Hedo Turkoglu is a triple threat.
6. Though the Magic don't have to play in transition to win, they push the ball incredibly well.
7. Forget about getting any productive isolation sets for your big men down in the post.
