It did not get much better in the first half for the Wizards as the Pacers exploded from the 8:53 mark until the 4:04 mark in the first quarter going on a 16-4 run stretching their lead over the Wizards to 14 points and most importantly keeping the momentum of the game in their court.
During the fourth quarter, the Wizards were able to capitalize some Pacers mistakes and at the 8:14 mark in the fourth quarter the Wizards went on a 7-0 run to cut the Pacers lead to four points.

 Sabledrake Magazine - GURPS Harry Potter Pt. 1   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
Wizards (male mages) and Witches (female mages) occasionally refer to the magical world as the “wizarding world” and the term “wizarding” can be applied as an adjective to any institution that functions in the magical world, for example, Gringott’s Wizarding Bank.
Wizards who choose not to use Apportation (such as underage wizards or wizards with small children) use a variant of the Teleportation spell called “Floo Powder.” Floo powder is an ash-like powder that allows the mage to travel from one enchanted hearth to another.
Wizards who are born to muggle families, or who are raised by muggles might not suffer from this disadvantage, but if they enter the wizarding world at a very young age, they might not fully appreciate the power of modern technology.

 Wizards keep it going - The Washington Times: Sports   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
James, who torched the Wizards for a career-high 38 points last weekend, was held to 14 and was a nonfactor for most of the night, scoring just six points after the first quarter and making six of 16 shots.
The Wizards used a balanced attack to dominate the second half of last night's game, when they transformed the Cavaliers from a team that made 65 percent of its shots in the first quarter into a wayward shooting group that made just 17 of 49 in the second half.
As a result, the Wizards closed to 48-45 at the half but appeared to be comfortable and ready to break things open in the second half.

MIAMI — In recent days coach Eddie Jordan and his staff have emphasized rebounding at Washington Wizards practices, and last night, in a painful 105-101 overtime loss to the Miami Heat, it was clear why that was a major point of concern.
But the Wizards, who were facing the Heat under new coach Stan Van Gundy for the first time, hurt themselves with costly turnovers in the second half.
However, the Wizards play was stagnant and sloppy the rest of the quarter and it hurt them.

 Psychology of Cyberspace - Wizards   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
To members, the most visible powers of the wizards are their abilities to "pin" (lock a user's avatar into the corner of the screen), "propgag" (lock a user's avatar into the standard smiley), "kill" (disconnect a user from the server for a specified amount of time), and "ban" (exile user/s from a specific internet address).
For wizards, the playful feeling of pinning and allscraying must be repressed, resulting in a frustration that finally gets relieved when wizards hang out together in private and indulge in "pinning parties" Pinning is a tradition for the newbie wizards at their induction ceremony (at some non-TPI/EC sites, "wizard wars" are a main attraction).
Wizards are constantly on the lookout for ways to improve the software so people can more easily interact within and between sites, play with their props and scripts, and communicate.
