After the Lakers stunned the Houston Rockets in their first matchup against Dwight Howard, the Internet exploded! Steve Blake’s game-winning three-pointer over Howard would prove to be the highlight of the Lakers season thus far, as it would put them at 3-3 without their superstar and franchise player in Kobe Bryant.
Lakers legend Magic Johnson took the opportunity to give his own take on the Lakers big win over the Rockets, and more importantly, against the former Laker Dwight Howard.
Laker Nation: I was in my hotel room in Miami screaming like the @Lakers won the championship when Steve Blake hit that shot!

After enduring the harsh reality of the “Dwightmare”, this win has to be one that liberates fans from that horrible summer. Magic certainly agrees.
Laker Nation: I know all the @Lakers fans are saying “Take that Dwight!”

Hopefully an effort like tonight can inspire this team to go on a run, as they continue to shock the world with their amazing play without the Black Mamba.
