I watched an excellent game tonight between Golden State and Orlando. It was a close game until the last 60 sec when the Magic went on a 8-0 run. In this game Howard was an absolute beast scoring 45 points and getting 23 rebounds. The Warriors were trying to use the "Hack a Howard" strategy, but it was a bit much as Dwight went to the line a record 39 times! That is absolutely crazy. The 39 trips to the line bested the old mark held by Wilt Chamberlain. Of course Dwight missed most of them. Very entertaining game though.
Other things to note are that Richardson left with a sprained knee after colliding with David Lee. He might miss a couple of weeks (this was from the announcers, but I have no idea of the severity of the injury). And I guess Mark Jackson has been focusing almost solely on defence with the Warriors. All the Warriors said how grueling his work outs have been but that they are happy with the new focus to defence.
