The Miami Heat visit the Orlando Magic on Saturday

It's personal now.

The Miami Heat and the Orlando Magic... Hmm... Both teams are going to two opposite directions this 2007-08 NBA basketball season. The young Magic are going up the food chain in the East while the Heat just keeps on going down as they continue to age.

On Saturday, the Miami Heat and the Orlando Magic renew their Southeast division rivalry in a battle of the best and worst teams in the division. Yep, isn't it weird that you can almost foresee how bad the Miami Heat will get their asses fucked for this one?

Probably the focus of this rivalry would have to be between the two coaches, Miami Heat head coach Pat Riley and Orlando Magic head coach Stan Van Gundy. For all ya'll who didn't know, Van Gundy was a longtime Miami Heat coach, working under Riley for 12 years and improving the team by 34 wins in two seasons as head coach.

Stan Van Gundy was quickly given the boot just when the Miami Heat looked like they finally have what it takes to win a championship. That's after they signed Shaquille O'Neal of course. And under the new regime, with Pat Riley back as head coach of the Heat, they won the title in 2006.

With the Miami Heat roster aging and just can't win anything even if their life depended on it, isn't it ironic that Stan Van Gundy is back coaching a team leading a division Miami once lorded over.

Oh yeah, kicking Riley's ass would just be sweet for Stan. He he... However, Stan says he doesn't want this game on Saturday to be that big of a deal.

''I don't think you can allow yourself for any reason in this league to put more importance on one game than another,'' Stan Van Gundy said. ''It's something that's going to lead you to problems because they're only going to give you credit for one win every night.''
