The Orlando Magic won their first NBA finals game in franchise history on Tuesday night winning game 3 over the Los Angeles Lakers, 108-104.

Orlando made 63 percent of their shots, that’s an NBA finals record.

“Well, it was going in the basket. That always works,” Magic coach Stan Van Gundy said. “That formula’s always tried and true.”

No one player stood out for the Magic, both Dwight Howard and Rashard Lewis scored 21 points; Rafer Alston added 20 points of his own while Hedo Turkoglu and Mickael Pietrus both scored 18.

“We’ve got to play like this,” Howard said. “When guys are attacking we’re tough to guard.”

After the game Kobe Bryant wanted to remind everyone that the Orlando Magic is actually decent team.

“This is a tough team, not a cupcake team,” Bryant said. “Extremely well coached, execute well and we’ve got our work cut out.”

Game 4 is on Thursday night.
