Here’s another guy to scratch off the Orlando Magic wish list:

Dwight Howard read Michael Jordan’s thoughts in an interview he gave to NBATV on the Bobcats’ need to foul Howard early and often.

Day 1 of the NBA Playoffs featured a few blowouts, a shoving match started by Kevin Garnett and Carmelo Anthony’s brilliant smile.

Dwyane Wade had 25 points and 7 assists, Michael Beasley added 22 points and Miami was in control throughout a victory at home. Dorell Wright and Quentin Richardson each scored 11 points for the Heat, which beat Orlando for the second time in two meetings this season.

Orlando Magic forward Matt Barnes was fined $20,000 by the NBA on Saturday for throwing a basketball into the stands.

Long the face of the Bucks, Michael Redd is OK with having Brandon Jennings do some of the heavy lifting.

Memphis Grizzlies owner Michael Heisley is insistent that guard Allen Iverson left the team Saturday to return to his home in Atlanta for personal reasons, not because he’s upset about not starting.
