TSNs Jack Armstrong offers his thoughts on home court advantage, the return of David West, the drama of Derrick Rose, the struggles of Lance Stepheson and the future of basketball in Milwaukee. Trey Burton Bears Jersey . 1. Home Court Advantage: As I sit here in Atlanta getting ready for Wednesdays Raptors game, Ive been thinking of how important home court is in the NBA. You need to look no further than Toronto and realize the impact the home crowd has had in the Raptors success these past 12 months. Ive been to every NBA arena multiple times in my 17 years as a Raptors broadcaster and Im telling you that in Toronto, youre talking about a home crowd thats awesome. Fans are knowledgeable and passionate and it shows. It surely makes a difference. 2. David West (Pacers): Likely back in lineup this week and his scoring, rebounding and leadership will be a big addition. Coach Frank Vogel has done a magnificent job keeping this team somewhat afloat. West will help stabilize things that much more. 3. Derrick Rose (Bulls): Im worn out already from this drama. Either play all out with nothing else to talk about or dont play at all. This soap opera is having an effect on their team despite what they say. Gotta be able to trust and rely on the fact that hes ready to roll when hes healthy. 4. Lance Stephenson (Hornets): This team has been a disappointment and misses Josh McRoberts. That being said, Stephenson has shot poorly (37 per cent) and is averaging under 10ppg. Not good enough for the investment that has been made in him. Their chemistry was excellent last season and I dont see the same flow in their offence. He hasnt brought his A game to the table and it better show up soon or theyre in trouble. 5. Milwaukee Arena: The clock is ticking to try and get a new arena deal done. If theres no new arena being funded and in the process of being built by 2017, the NBA has the right to buy the team and move it. Theyll be plenty of cities (Seattle, Louisville, Vancouver, Las Vegas, Kansas City) lining up trying to make a run at this team. Ive always enjoyed going to Milwaukee and I hope it all works out. Pressure is now on to get a deal done or theyll be gone in a few years and that would be sad.

in 15 games with AHL Oklahoma City.ORLANDO, Fla. -- The Orlando Magic have seen much more misery than celebration this season. But with one of the NBAs best teams and its top scorer in town, the Magic made the most of a rare opportunity to enjoy the latter. Tobias Harris slammed home a fast-break pass from Maurice Harkless at the buzzer to give the Orlando Magic a 103-102 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Friday night. With the Thunder leading 102-101 in the closing seconds, Kevin Durant missed a jumper to set up the last-second play, which was reviewed by officials and upheld. Rookie Victor Oladipo, who had grabbed the rebound on Durants miss with 2.9 seconds left and passed ahead to Harkless to start the break, pounded his chest after the play and screamed "This is our floor!" as the crowd roared. "I saw Victor get the (rebound) and I just wanted to be down there, whether or not he shot a layup or if he made it, congratulate him, to get a tip-in -- anything," Harris said. "But he kicked it to Mo and I just kept running. Mo saw me and my whole momentum was just to get it in the rim." Harris led the Magic with 18 points, followed by Arron Afflalo with 16. Orlandos bench outscored the Oklahoma Citys 36-23. The win gives the Magic their first four-game home winning streak in two years. It also snaps the Thunders five-game winning streak in the series. "I was drawing up our defensive strategy unless they had point-something left on the clock," Magic coach Jacque Vaughn said. "But well take it." Durant led the Thunder with 29 points and 12 assists. Serge Ibaka added 26 points. The loss was just the second in 14 games for Oklahoma City. Durants points and assists accounted for half of his teams points in the first half. But he scored just 12 points on 5-for-13 shooting in the second half. He was 1 for 7 in the fourth. "We couldnt do anything (in the second half). We were just a step slow," Durant said. "We kept running the same plays. We didnt help on the back side. We let guys cut to basket. ... There were just mental breakdowns." The Magic made eight of their first 11 shots to starrt the third quarter and trailed by eight entering the fourth. James Daniels Jersey. Vaughn said before the game that the matchup would turn on whether the Magics second unit could outplay the Thunders bench. His prediction came true. Without their starters on the floor, the Magic kept their third-quarter momentum going by scoring the first eight points of the final period to cut the Thunders lead and tie it at 88-all with just over 9 minutes to play. Durant was re-inserted into the game and promptly put his team back in front with a jumper from the wing. The Magic kept coming, though, and took their first lead, 91-90, on a pair of free throws by Harris at the 7:59 mark. The game stayed tight and was tied at 99 when Durant came down on the break and found Thabo Sefolosha in the corner for a 3-pointer with 1:56 left. Glen Davis drew an offensive foul and on the ensuing possession Afflalo was fouled on a 3-point attempt with less than a minute to play. He hit two of his three attempts to trim the gap to 102-101 and set up the final sequence. The Thunder hovered above 70 per cent shooting early on and led by as many as 17 points in the first half. The Magic hung around, shooting 52 per cent themselves for the half. But they couldnt match Oklahoma Citys 8-for-12 shooting from 3. The Thunder also had 17 assists. But the Magic held them to just 37 points in the second half. "We came in at halftime and watched the film and talked about how we could help ourselves," Vaughn said. "There were numerous possessions in the first half where we could have been in better places ... and we did that in the second half and that was the difference." NOTES: The Magic honoured former players Sam Vincent and Jeff Turner, along with former team executive John Gabriel as part of their 25th anniversary season celebration. ... Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Darrelle Revis sat courtside Friday. Model Kate Upton also was in attendance, sitting on the baseline alongside Detroit Tigers pitcher Justin Verlander. ...
