Magic's Howard compared to Wilt, Shaq (AP)
Published 5/2/2008 at Yahoo! Sports - NBA News
The Detroit Pistons will host the Orlando Magic in Game 1 of an Eastern Conference semifinal less than 48 hours after tipping off in Philadelphia. The way they closed out the 76ers, the second-seeded Pistons are glad to get right back at it Saturday night against the Dwight Howard-led Magic. After a lackluster start, Detroit dominated the Sixers for the final 2 1/2 games of the series.
