I think Magic should focus on playing clean and disciplined games towards the end of the regular season with the target to maintain at least the 3rd overall position. With strong competition in the West there is no guarantee that Lakers would be in the final.

Yea i agree. Fine tuning the things your going to try and get done in the play-offs should be the goal. I'd like to see a better effort against dallas and continue our domination of san antone. Memphis is always tough with those young players so getting physical with them will be important. With the magic number being four the magic need to take care of business and lock up the second seed.
