Magic (0-0) at Celtics (0-0) Game 1 5/4

[silvershamrocker]

I hate moral victories 

[Kuberski33]

I thought coming in that the C's could steal Game 1.  Missed opportunity.  Now you have to win Game 2.

this guy asked howard the same question 3 times.
just tell him what answer you want tool.

[mahonedog88]

Well.. we had opportunities. I'm still proud of them for coming back.

Meh, I'm not that proud.  We still lost.  We're a championship team...even without KG we should still beat this Magic team.  We shouldn't have been in the situation to "come back" in the first place.

[PosImpos]

so much for that valued #2 seed and homecourt...would have rather been the 3 seed and played philly... need to get off to a better start...

I know right? I bet we'd be in the driver's seat right now if we had been the 3 seed....Philly in 5 or 6 games, Magic have a rough time with the Bulls, maybe we even take game 1 in Orlando...Ah well.

Can someone explain the difference between Anthony Johnson getting the call to end the first half which was identical to how Pierce got hit by Howard on that last drive?

Nevertheless I'm still confident about this series.

give the c's credit for coming back, but too little too late - the good news is now they know they can play with them, I expect a blowout in game 2 in green's favor

[Who]

The C's learned some valuable lessons in the second half -- developed some comfort offensively and defensively against Orlando, and discovered how valuable Scalabrine could be in this series.

[Casperian]

Good effort. Too bad Ray was ice-cold tonight.

Rondo with a double double (points & rebounds).

I have a good feeling for game 2.

[Celtic]

The evil Mickeys win. If for no other reason, the Celtics need to win just so that the city of Orlando doesn't.

[gar]

Magic have proven who they really are - a house of cards. C's have shown what the can do. When four of your regular starters have horrible nights and you still make it close - that has got be somewhat of an omen. Plus don't tug on Scal's cape. Please start Scal next game!

[kozlodoev]

you aren't going to get a chest bump foul called like that in the 4th quarter for the same reason rondo doesn't get the flagrant call against miller in the chicago series.

You will, if your name is Lebron James. Heck, if your name is Lebron James, you'll get a call if the player was a foot an a half away from you, too.

I'm not proud of the loss. Proud that we didn't roll over.

[Scribbles]

Well great comeback by the C's, just fell short.  We need to come out and play like this from the start.  Orlando is a team that can't play from behind I honestly believe.  BTW Scal was +22 for the game...he needs to start over BBD.  Lewis is just to tough for BBD to cover.

Well.. we had opportunities. I'm still proud of them for coming back.

I like your name because it's ironic.

Thank you.
