Interesting starting lineup used by Stan Van Gundy, with Matt Barnes starting at PF along with the starting backcourt of Williams and Pietrus.
JWill still has the ability to dish out the assists, with six against the Grizzlies.
Another good performance by Redick and Gortat off the bench; Gortat has made 13 of his last 14 field goals in the last two games.
New Orleans will provide a good test for the Magic Tuesday night.

Agreed. There doesnt seem to be any chemistry issue's at all which just keeps surprising me when i read the statistics from the game. I think not having hedo is gonna put the ball in the hands of our PG's on a regular basis which should improve the assist numbers at that position as well as lower the turnover numbers. Jwill obviously benefited from being able to run the team throughout.
