| Dwight Howard and the Orlando Magic Look To Take Control Against the Atlanta Hawks |
BetPhoenix is the best online sportsbook to wager on the NBA and they have the latest odds on this and all other games on the schedule. On a night Dwight Howard managed just eight points and eight rebounds, his teammates stepped up to carry him. Seven Magic players scored more points than he did. Jason Richardson led the Magic with 17 points. They took control late in the first quarter and never let the Hawks back into the game, cruising to a surprisingly easy victory. Josh Smith led everyone with 22 points. The Magic made 11 of 26 shots from three-point range, holding the Hawks to just 36.2 percent shooting from the field. At least now, Dwight Howard knows he has a supporting cast. The Magic still trail the Hawks, 3-2, going into Game 6 in Atlanta Thursday night, but they will go with considerable momentum, real hope, and the knowledge that their shooting slump is over. Howard was energized not by his worst game of the series Tuesday, but by the way his teammates carried the load without him, giving him confidence they are ready to do it again when needed. Instead of relying too heavily on Howard, who averaged 32.3 points and 17.5 rebounds in the first four games (three Magic losses), the Magic spread the wealth and keep everyone involved and focused. And they blew out the Hawks by 25 points in Game 5. The Magic must win Thursday in Atlanta to force a Game 7 Saturday back in Orlando. The Magic will get the hard fought win and force a game seven in this series. Play on Orlando Magic
