Everyone on here probably has a couple tried and true angles they like to play. They dont always hit, but if we can get them to hit 55%-60% of the time, well then we are fairly happy......Mine has always been revenege. At this level, game after game, town after town, side piece after side piece, these boys needs something to motivate them. Its a long season and focusing on even little things will do. Hawks got theirs a few nights ago on the Cavs and Ill return to the revenge factor again tonight.
I'm going to ride with the boys from Mormon town tonight vs the Magic. The Magic beat them back on the 5th 98-93 in Salt Lake. Now is a chance for payback. Dont get me wrong Utah is not good, either are the Magic, but, Utah has been playing decent lately. They beat the Spurs, albeit, without Parker. Hung with the Bullets and Eyebrows, then beat the Heat on Wednesday. The Heat game is important. The Heat beat them in SL on the 12th. It was payback time and they got them. Now they have had a night off to think about the Magic. They only traveled from Miami to Orlando and catch the Magic on their first game back home from the road and 5th game in 8 nights. The Magic have been road wariors lately. They havent played back to back home games all year. They may have hit a wall becuase the last 2 games have been a little ugly. Now they get a nice 4 game home stretch.
Give me the Jazz plus the 3 to get a little payback tonight and best the Magic outright. Favors is probable. He played 30 plus minutes on Wednesday, so, I dont see him sitting this one out. Good luck to all
