| J.J. Redick scores first points (I was there) Got to see the Magic crush the Atlanta Hawks. I was late to the game because of parking...and by the time I settled in, Orlando had a huge double digit lead.
The Hawks never mounted a comeback, and by the third period, the crowd started chanting for Redick. The coach threw the rookie in there with 3 minutes to go, and he hit his first jumper from about 18 feet out. He followed up with a long 3 pt attempt that rimmed out. He seemed to hustle on D, though he was a bit slower than the guy he was covering...grabbed a board, and handed out an assist.
Later, I looked up his stats on Yahoo, and realized that's his first regular season action...which was cool to see. |
