dont bet to much on bos tsop. next season when all the pieces are in they will make a comeback and hopefully get a couple of help for rondo and pierce. they dont have credible subs for those guys.btw, how do you like them to bounce back in game2? can they easily cover? looks like the only interesting series to watch is bos-orl. other series favors the favorites
The Magic will NOT WIN this series against Boston

#38Just by looking at last nites game ... I can definitely look at this series going for another 6-7 games. And if this does get to that phase ... Boston has much more character to face themComment -

#40Originally posted by TsopranoDecides the obvious home court advantage Boston has (which means a TON in the NBA), the Celtics hold many other advantages over the Magic. First of all, Dwight Howard is over hyped and is able to be contained (not stopped completely, but contained), which is just fine when he is the center of Orlando's team. The Celtics have shown in the last series they are able to keep up with a fast paced, offensive minded team like the Bulls (although that is not when they thrive, but shows they have the energy if need be). Although this is cliche, "you live and DIE by the three". Boston certainly knows how to defend, even with Kevin Garnett out of the lineup.
We have also seen Orlando BLOW MANY leads in their series with 76ers (I believe they only covered the spread once in the entire series, that goes to show you they were barely pulling wins out). If one team can come back from being down double digits late in the game, it is the Boston Celtics, and one of those comebacks was with their star shooter (Ray Ray) on the bench with six fouls. The 76ers overcame a double digit defecit to beat Orlando IN Orlando. The Magic do not play good with the lead and I expect them not to be able to hold one on Boston for more than a few minutes. The Orlando Magic are not mentally strong enough to make it to the finals and will not.
Decides that, Boston has too many weapons for the Magic to handle. Big Baby Davis was playing like an Allen Iverson in his prime, diving for balls and flying in the paint for layups to be put up. Perkins and Davis should be able to contain Dwight Howard big time, while Ray Allen and Paul Pierce defend the perimeter and make life very difficult for the long-range shooting....Orlando Magic team. All this and I didn't even mention Rajon Rando, has anyone here seen him play? Half the steals were initiated from him poking the ball away or being a major pest to whoever had possession of the ball on the opposing team at that moment.
I love Boston in this series, and to come out with a bang tonight and beat Orlando by at least 7 points up in Boston.
If Boston wins. BIG if its game 4 in Orlando. YOu give me the line I have paypal account. PM or post in hereComment -

#44im sure later at game time and after. this thread will become lively again. playoff has been predictable. consensus differs only on bos-orl series. if orl will puke or bos will still claw their way out of wins. but still you gotta appreciate how the celts have the confidence to play like they are the champ and wont lose the title.Comment -

#47Orlando is the play today. The Celtics just don't have an answer at two positions on the floor. They don't have an answer for Howard and they don't have an answer for Lewis. Big Baby just simply isn't fast enough to handle him. The Celtics are toast, and will only win one game in this series (Game 4)Comment -

#48I think the Celts did okay against Howard and Lewis... lewis had 4 points after the first quarter I think... and Howard was held well below his season avg again. Perkins actually does a pretty good job against him.Comment -

#49I don't think that Howard forced the issue too much. He was killing the boards though. Lewis can do it all game long if his number is called though. There wasn't what I would call shut-down defense being played against him. He simply didn't get as many touches as i would have liked. Perkins simply can't jump like Howard can.Comment -

#50what I noticed most in the 3rd and especially in the 4th when the magic started to need some buckets.... they seemed to NEVER run the offense through Howard, only way he got touches was from O-rebs...
that worries me about Alston and more importantly Van Gundy, its hard to hit the long range shots, when the pressure is on during a huge run by the other team late in the game. yet they kept chucking them up there, without looking inside to DwightComment -

#57Of course it's the dumbest post because it's posted by the dumbest fag that likes to suck Paul Pierce's c*ck. He said I'll look stupid after they Celtics win the series, but look who got the last laugh?
