D-12 puts on a memorable performance like you wouldn't believe. If that wasn't enough, you'll learn that his source of inspiration comes from none other than Magic head coach, Stan Van Gundy.

Audley and Toronto based rapper, Mic Boogie head into the Orlando Magic locker room on the hunt to find out which player on the team has the best flow on the M-I-C.
So we're on the verge of The NBA Finals and as expected, there's tons of speculation floating around. There never seems to be a shortage of opinions on what the outcome of the Finals will be, especially this time of year.
The reality is that nobody really knows but it's sure fun to speculate, ain't it?.
As more and more opinions sprout up, a slew of questions are generated.
Here's a few that we won't have answers to until after opening tip:
A Morton's Fork is when an individual is forced to make a decision between two equally unfavorable options - similar to the expression caught between a rock and a hard place.
It's roots go back to England in 1487, under the rule of Henry VII.
The Morton's Fork principle was based on a tax collection policy devised by John Morton, King Henry's financial minister and adviser.
Morton surmised that if a subject under the rule of King Henry appeared to live economically and within his means, was a good saver and could afford to give generously to the King.
If, however, the subject lived an extravagant lifestyle he, too, could afford to give largely because of his over abundance of wealth.
If you were a subject in England at the time, you clearly had no right way to go.
Fast forward to modern day and you'll see that the Orlando Magic are offering their own version of Morton's Fork to the other 29 teams in the league.
Here's how.
When it comes to inside post play, everything the Magic does begins and ends with Dwight Howard. He's a certifiable monster on the low block and his size and strength make him impossible to keep off of the offensive boards.
So NBA squads must decide whether to play Howard straight up and not send the extra defender or offer the double on the inside and have their potent shooters burn you from 3 point land.
In most instances, the situations, match-ups and the flow of the game will determine the best course of action however, the Magic have shown the ability to exploit opposing squads either way.
Just ask the Sacramento Kings.
The Magic are a top team in the eastern conference and force opposing coaches on a nightly basis to stock up on their headache pills.
