|
| |  | ORLANDO: GUARDS: With Dwight Howard gone, this becomes JAMEER NELSON's team on the offensive end. Injuries slowed him a year ago, but he still does a nice job creating his own scoring chances . . . ARRON AFFLALO will provide some much-needed defense on the perimeter, a huge team weakness that will be exploited in the post-Howard era. He'll be a No. 2 or 3 option on the offensive end as well . . . J.J. REDICK has a chance for a bigger role in what should be a transitional year in Orlando. He's no more of a defensive liability than Nelson . . . CHRISTIAN EYENGA was a throw-in during the Dwight Howard trade and defends well enough to earn a roster spot . . . ISHMAEL SMITH will back up Nelson once he returns from a shoulder injury . . . E'TWAUN MOORE has played well enough in the preseason to spell Nelson too. FORWARDS: HEDO TURKOGLU still has some value as a point forward, though his minutes could shrink as Orlando rebuilds . . . GLEN DAVIS shined in Howard's absence last year. He's inefficient, but aggressive and willing to throw his weight around . . . Keep an eye on ANDREW NICHOLSON; the rookie is a crafty scorer who can shoot away from the basket . . . QUENTIN RICHARDSON will chug along as an injury-prone, three-point specialist . . . AL HARRINGTON is coming off a couple knee surgeries and may not have much left in the tank . . . MOE HARKLESS is athletic, versatile, and could get a long look in the second half of the year . . . GUSTAVO AYON is a capable big body who can play some center . . . JUSTIN HARPER will be buried on the bench . . . JOSH McROBERTS is not good. CENTERS: Davis figures to see a lot of minutes at center, but NIKOLA VUCEVIC is a much better defensive option. He's limited offensively, but could start grabbing more minutes in the middle as the year goes on . . . KYLE O'QUINN is a big body who can score around the basket. He has a rough transition ahead of him as an average athlete from a small school. | | INDIANA: GUARDS: The Pacers went 7-2 during the regular season and won a playoff series with GEORGE HILL in the starting five. He averaged 13.9 PPG and 5.3 APG in those regular season starts . . . PAUL GEORGE is a defensive stopper who is making strides on the offensive end. If he can find the touches, his scoring average will rise . . . D.J. AUGUSTIN has a skill set similar to Hill's. Maybe he'll push him for minutes later in the year, but more likely he'll shoot corner threes off the bench . . . GERALD GREEN is another athlete for their second unit . . . LANCE STEPHENSON has a chance for a bigger role, but he's been atrocious to this point of his career. FORWARDS: DANNY GRANGER's touches dropped last season, but his shot selection improved as last year went on. He'll continue to be a borderline All-Star . . . DAVID WEST's knee should be fully recovered from his torn ACL in late 2010-11. He was their best player in the postseason and should be a star this season with his ability to knock down shots . . . TYLER HANSBROUGH looks like he's settling in as a career second unit player. His lack of athleticism really limits his upside . . . JEFF PENDERGRAPH may or may not hold on to a roster spot in a 12th-man role. CENTERS: They're paying ROY HIBBERT like a franchise player, and he has the ability to control both ends of the court. The question is whether they'll now play him 30-plus minutes, or continue to use him as more of a part-time player . . . IAN MAHINMI should step in as a decent backup center . . . Rookie MILES PLUMLEE was a part-time player at Duke and is highly unlikely to contribute in his first season. |

*Magic-Pacers Preview* ======================
By ALAN FERGUSON STATS Writer
Orlando (18-49) at Indiana (40-26), 7:00 p.m. EDT
David West's absence hardly affected Indiana in its most recent game, and the Pacers might get by without him if he is sidelined again Tuesday night given the opponent.
After avoiding a season high-tying third straight defeat, Indiana will try to post back-to-back wins for the first time in nearly three weeks when it welcomes the lowly Orlando Magic.
A sprained lower back caused West, the team's second-leading scorer, to miss only his second game this season Monday but the Pacers (41-26) cruised to a 111-90 victory in Cleveland. Gerald Green scored a team-best 20 points off the bench and West's replacement in the starting lineup, Tyler Hansbrough, had 18 points and 11 rebounds.
"This was a great team win," coach Frank Vogel said. "Tyler is a starter in this league that we have coming off the bench. Obviously, we got a big, big lift from Gerald Green."
That victory and Chicago's loss to Denver put Indiana 4 1/2 games ahead in the Central Division. Indiana will try to pad that lead by earning consecutive wins for the first time since March 1-3.
The Pacers have alternated losses and victories in their last five home games after winning 19 of their previous 21 in Indianapolis. They've also lost five straight regular-season matchups against Orlando at Bankers Life Fieldhouse, but this Magic team will have a much different look than the one that made its last trip to Indiana for last year's playoffs.
With four of its top five scorers from last season no longer on the team, Orlando has gone 6-36 since Dec. 20 and 3-17 on the road. In their latest game Sunday, the Magic blew a 13-point lead in the fourth quarter and fell 115-109 in Milwaukee.
Orlando had three players score 20 or more points for the second straight game but the outcome was the same as a 117-104 defeat in Oklahoma City on Friday. Arron Afflalo had a team-best 24 in Sunday's game, and rookie forward Maurice Harkless scored a career-high 23, but Orlando allowed the Bucks to score 45 fourth-quarter points on 15-of-23 shooting (65.2 percent).
"In the fourth quarter we didn't defend like we did the first three quarters," said center Nikola Vucevic, who had 20 points after scoring 21 on Friday. "We didn't make the right adjustments. We didn't defend it right. They got back into it and got the win."
The Magic also had trouble containing Indiana on March 8, as Paul George's 25 points led six Pacers in double figures in a 115-86 road victory. Indiana matched its second-highest scoring total of the season while shooting 51.8 percent - including 11 of 19 from 3-point range.
George is averaging 22.3 points on 55.8 percent in his last three regular-season games against Orlando.
The Magic are visiting Indiana for the first time since a 105-87 drubbing in the decisive Game 5 of last year's first-round playoff series. The Pacers' series victory was their first since 2005.
