I question whether Orlando has the mental toughness necessary to win it all...in fact I don't think they have it.

Amazing how well this team can play when they buckle down even in this depleted state.
Anyone have a guess as to how many losses and close wins could have been comfortable wins if they didn't suffer from these slow starts?
Tommy: He's got a line about me. Tell him the line.

Mike: Everybody 60 or over knows Tommy as a player. Everybody 40 or over knows Tommy as a coach. Everybody 20 or over knows Tommy as a broadcaster. And everybody 10 or under thinks he's Shrek.

just can't bury yourself by 30 early third...that extra 12 points is the difference in the game...keep it at 18 and things are different

At least I can stop watching this game in a little bit and focus on my work, which I have tons of and not enough time to do.

I guess we should all be thankful we had one great series that had more excitement than most teams get in 3 playoff series.
**** do u still feel the same? You guys go a little too far sometimes, acting like our seasons over?

orlando is going to play pietrus a lot in this series...when boston plays hard on defense they usually win....only played hard on defense in the second half...boston has had a ton of empty possessions in this 4th

Scalabine has to start in game 2.
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

No chance of winning this without Pierce making some shots....
