My sarcasm meter is very old

Some b@#$hurt Magic fans are saying it was "cuz the refs favored Boston big market team"

How is it that two sets of fans can watch the same game and come to such different conclusions about who the refs were favoring? Everyone knows Brothers hates us!

Should've kept JT in to get two more rebounds for the triple double.

No?.no we shouldn?t have.

Because of the Indiana OT game on NBA TV it really screwed us up in Florida. Had to wait until like a minute left in OT and they said the Celtics game was starting on the HLN Network. What?? What is that? We found it and it was the network playing Forensic Files. And we were watching the Orlando local announcers who are not terrible but very biased. Tried to go back to NBA TV after the Indiana OT was over and now that channel is blocked so back to HLN and then they put Forensic Files back on and the new channel was 654 (Orlando local channel again). When Bancero got his 5th foul we constantly had to hear he got his 5th foul but really on;e earned 3 fouls. They were outraged that the last foul he committed on Brown was offensive. OMG. Their coach left him in with 4 fouls and rolled the dice and lost so you have to live with it. That was coaches fault. For people that DVR the fame to watch the next day they will be surprised to have no game today.

Cs really did not play well this series and still won in 5. That is reassuring going forward.

Orlando's physical and dirty play gives them no reason to complain about the refs.

It was nice to run them off the floor in the second half.

Also did not really have the 3 working in this series. That is going to change next series.

I just had a look at the Magic sub, and while there are a few people talking about it being rigged and the Paolo getting screwed, the vast majority of people realize their team just isn't very good and they need more offensive firepower/shooting.

Appears that the Cs survived without adding a major injury and now have at least some time for Tatum?s wrist, Brown?s knee, and Jrue?s hamstring to get some rest time.

KP has to be better moving forward. He?s got to make KP shots.  Was good to see Luke relax and play more like we?ve seen him play this year. Not counting on big production from him moving forward but will be very happy if he can contribute in a game or two per series as the playoffs move on.  Same with Sam.

This will age well.
