10 shots for Dwight Howard is ridiculous.... I put that on the coach. Especially in the 4th qtr.... He should have been going inside to Dwight. No one on Boston can guard him down low, at least not without help.

Unless Orlando comes back to beat Boston, he will def be fired.....He still may even be fired then.

If your coach and best player aren't seeing eye to eye.....Usually one of them has to go. And there is no way Orlando will let Howard go.

Yahoo News= Garbage..... they constantly post shit that isnt accurate/confirmed (Pitino, UConn, USC)

I completely agree. Anyone that watches basketball can see how badly coached Orlando is despite them being the better and deeper team on paper at the moment. Couple that with the fact that the Magic just aren't mentally tough enough to execute during crunch time.

It definitely makes it difficult for us bettors. Usually in close situations the better team prevails, but as we've seen throughout this series (albeit through some fluke plays and blown calls by the refs) that's just NOT the case i.e. Magic blowing a huge lead in gm 1 (they could have easily lost that game too), not running the clock down more in their last possession in gm 4, and now blowing a 14 point lead with 8min to go... you chalk that up to bad coaching.

So do we bank on Van Gundy's crappy coaching and take Boston +6.5 next game??

[RoagBettor]

Howard sucks offensively. He's almost as bad as Rondo. All he can do is dunk and why would you want the ball in his hands at the end when the Celtics will foul him and watch him hit 1 out of 5 with the game on the line?

The Magic got where they are on their outside shooting. You live and die by it and they died in Game 5 by not hitting their shots during crunch time.

Howard needs to shut up, but he just convinced me to go heavy on the C's for Game 6 because he also called out his teammates by implying they sucked worse than him.

[Tsoprano]

Dwight is in the wrong partially, Boston had him on lockdown....he acts like he would score if he got the ball. WRONG

Perkins and Davis had him chucking shots up that wouldn't even hit the rim

[RoagBettor]

Exactly Uncle Tony. Perkins did a great job on him and he was tossing up stupid hook shots and fadeaway jumpers which weren't even close. I've watched him shoot in the playoffs, he can't. He's a dunker and he sucks from the line under pressure.

The funny thing is that Rondo's shooting makes Howard look like Jordan!

[purecarnagge]

yahoo is better than espeeon

[Shark79]

Van Gundy calls the plays.

Howard is on court

I say fvk Howard

This is exactly what the Celtics needed to close it in Orlando~!!!

Rouge I totally disagree with u. Howard is not only a dunker. He could hit that baby hook from about 6 inches away from the hoop. Now thats the offensive versatility!

[BigMoneyMan]

He is right on point when your up 21 in the fourth in football you run the ball not throw up hail mary's the rest of the game. You run, run and punt if necessary and play D.. Same in Bball you play solid D and pound the boards. ****ing Bball 101. I have seen this crap all year long. Without the absolute shitty play calling the Celtics would be in their rocking chairs watching the playoffs. HE will be fired after this BS series is over.

[big joe 1212]

Van Gundy should bench his ass!

[frostno98]

He's the George Karl of last year playoffs, completely clueless.

[SBR_John]

He didnt really call him out as the headline screams on all the news services. In fact Dwight Howard was pretty well spoken and respectful from what I read.

[BrentCrude]

Van Gundy can't compete with ** Carthy from the Packers when it comes to throwing his team under the bus making them take the blame for a loss.The season before last the Packers were playing the Bears on a Sunday or Monday night game and they were kicking the Bears ass throwing the ball all over the field building up a sizable lead.** Carthy goes ultra conservative in the 2nd half with those 3 rush netting 3 yards each drives and the Packers got edged out at the end of the game.** Carthy blamed the team for the loss saying they quit on him.I can see why Favre didn't have alot of respect for ** Carthy.

Is their a NBA history IQ test I can take. I think I'll score higher than you, Moron.

[Slanina]

I can't wait to hear about this 24x during the broadcast of the game. I'm pretty excited about it.
