Lewis hit that same shot in Game 6 vs the C's

[Fafnir]

Gasol has really outplayed Howard

Howard has looked like Perkins this game, he keeps bringing the ball down low for no reason.

Lewis hit that same shot in Game 6 vs the C's

And against Cleveland as well.

[Redz]

Ugh.  The Lakers are going to win, and Edgar is on the verge of passing me in playoff pick-a-player, in a game I thought I had wrapped up.

Up by 1/10th huh Roy!

That was the story of my series vs Edgar

agonizing losses

maybe you'll hang on

Actually. I think that's the one I'm thinking of

Well they sent Odom to the line, that is who you want shooting them in this situation.

He just managed to make them, this game...

Odds on Orlando winning 4 out of the next 5?

[Who]

This series is over. Orlando won't win four of five against LA.

There should be some good competitive basketball left in the series ... but the result isn't in doubt, LA has it.

I'm afraid you're right, barring injury or something crazy happening.

Still the series wasn't over when the C's won the first two games in Boston last year. I'll keep watching till the end.

Sadly, this series is over. Orlando is not going to win 4 out of 5 versus the Lakers. I am not sure the Magic will win more than one game the way Howard is playing. Also, someone ought to ask Stan Van Dummy about his no point guard offense.

That same line up is what finished off the Celtics in game 6 and 7.

It also worked to tie up the game and take the lead twice against the Lakers tonight.

I am not sure you are right about that. I am pretty sure they had a point guard on the floor, but had Turkgolu handling the ball. I could be wrong though.

They didn't, they had Lee, Pietrus, Turk, Rashard, and Howard on the floor for long stretches against the C's.

That line up ate up our offensive rhythm and scored pretty well on us too.

One big difference in that lineup. They had Lee on the floor instead of Reddick. Reddick = awful. I don't think he has played in like 7 games and all of a sudden Van Gundy falls in love with him tonight.

Pietrus had fouled out. I think Jameer or Raefer would have been a better option but I'm not going to kill him for having his hand forced.
