Why is Dwight smiling? Maybe because he put up 24 point and 25 rebounds in an overtime win against the Heat.

Orlando at Heat: 5 things to watch

In February, while seemingly everyone was burying the new-look Magic, something interesting happened: Dwight Howard began to build an MVP résumé. Since Orlando lost on its home floor to the Heat on Feb. 3, Howard has put together the most impressive stretch of his career. In the 11 games since that loss, Howard has posted six games of 30 points or more. He hasn’t collected fewer than 10 rebounds in a game since Jan. 19. How’s he getting it done? For one, never underestimate the value of the deep catch in the paint. We can argue about the level of refinement Howard has achieved on the block (though anyone who still maintains Howard doesn’t have a thorough post game simply hasn’t been watching).

Tough loss.

Magic center Dwight Howard played all 48 minutes — the first time he’s ever done that in a non-overtime game — and finished with 17 points and 16 rebounds.
