Video Vault:

1) The Magic still appear to be in "flip the switch" mode. Brian Schmitz of the Orlando Sentinel writes that could mean Orlando is a long way away from being ready for the postseason.

----------

2) Orlando found some energy, if not consistency in a 78-72 win over Milwaukee on Tuesday night. My suggestion is to just burn the box score. This one was ugly.

----------

3) Brian Schmitz of the Orlando Sentinel wonders if the Magic can possibly win with just six "useful" players.

----------

4) Dwight Howard urges his city to get behind this team for what should be an interesting playoff run.

----------

5) Dexter Fishmore of SB Nation Los Angeles suggests Stan Van Gundy may be a good option to replace Phil Jackson if things ultimately end up not working out in Orlando. It just shows how much value Van Gundy might have throughout the league, even as his team seems to be falling apart around him right now.
