LA Lakers are convinced they will not see the same Orlando Magic team in Game 2 of NBA Finals. Magic was outplayed, out-hustled and out-coached in Game 1, a 100-75 blowout by Lakers, and Lakers star Kobe Bryant said a repeat performance was unlikely to happen.
Orlando Magic used deadly accurate shooting from the outside to oust LeBron James and his Cleveland Cavaliers in Eastern Conference finals but lost that touch against LA Lakers. Magic All Star center Dwight Howard dismissed the notion that the Lakers won because they had more big game experience.
