The Magic won two out of three games against the Cavaliers this season.

That fact, along with the 29-point beating Orlando handed Cleveland on April 3, will keep the East's top seed from taking the Magic lightly in the Conference Finals.

"That loss hurt us," coach Mike Brown said. "Hopefully it bothered us so we won't let it happen again."

NBA MVP LeBron James knows that stopping Dwight Howard isn't necessarily the key to beating Orlando.

"They are a pick-your-poison team," James said. "You have to deal with Dwight [Howard] but they have surrounded him with great shooters."

Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals will be Wednesday night in Cleveland.
