Man, Orlando isn't playing a lick of defense in this game.
Their defense has been excellent overall. They just can't run a fast break to save their season.

But they're heating up. They just need to win the fourth quarter and they've accomplished what they needed to, a split in LA.

Every Kobe turn over is a teammate's fault. What a leader.  ::)

Orlando needs to regain their footing in this one. It's slipping away from them.

They'd be ahead if they'd make a cursory attempt to stop the dribble-drive.

Wish they'd played like this two series ago ...

3 Orlando fouls in 30 seconds.  Not a good  30 seconds...

Reddick and Lee? Worst Finals back court in crunch time ever?

LA is winning this game.  The Magic have completely lost it offensively.

If Mickael Pietrus didn't show up to the Boston series like he's not showing up to this series, we probably would've won.  I don't think people realize just how huge he was for them when the Magic played us.  He's completely disappeared offensively in these finals.

so far this series is lacking passion. hopefully there's a long way to(hoping magc can win) but this just does'nt look like an nba finals. i can't picture anyone getting in anyone's else's face from either team. we haven't even seen a lot of guys diving for balls. both teams are talented ofcourse but both have soft styles.
