Orlando seemed lost in the trees against the Lakers in the first game.

"We just didn't have any energy or effort," Dwight Howard said following the loss. " We didn't box out, all the little things. We can't control Kobe scoring 40 points but we can control boxing out.

"It's just one game," said Magic forward Hedo Turkoglu, who shot 3-of-11. " It's a long series, we've got a couple days to work on things. We know how good we are and we know what we need to do to win."
Orlando has been successful in these NBA Playoffs in making comebacks. They made it to the finals and had to come from behind against Philadelphia and Boston in the conference playoffs.
