was game 4 just them overconfident? will we see the magic play like they did in game 4?

i am very concerned about tomorrow night. part of me thinks boston will win and the other part smells an orlando butt kicking coming. i do think boston would win in game 6 but i am
VERY nervous about this series now.

I expect the Celtics to win game 5. If the Magic fall down by 10 in any of these remaining games, they are done.

The Celtics absolutely were overconfident. I really think they slipped on their one-game-at-a-time grip.

So the Lakers Celtics finals get delayed by one game in each series because each team lost a moment of focus.

I don't know if they were overconfident, but they generally struggle at home for whatever reason.  I expect them to get it done on the road, where they have been great.  I guess it's a good thing they don't have homecourt advantage.

I wouldn't be worried about this series. It's not like we won the first 3 by luck. We get this done in 5 or 6, either way were going to LA and take our title back.

I expect unyielding unmerciful decimation of the team previously alluded to as the "Magic".

I expect the Celtics to win.  I don't care how they do it, I just want them to win.

More than anything I want to see them out-hustle and out-defend the other team again.

If Rondo was telling the truth about just having a bad game I think Rondo will take over and the Celtics will roll.

If he is actually hurt I expect the game to be a very close affair that could go either way.

Sheed worked hard all year for road court advantage.  So I fully expect Sheed to lead us to a game 5 victory.

  • The Truth
The Magic have their backa against the wall right now, so they are unpredictable, but I think will be in payback mode 'cause of last year game 7 blowout at The Garden, he said on the press conference he won't forgget about that :D

I guess that is the $64,000 question.  I feel like the Magic played the way they can play as opposed to the first 3 games.  Now the Celtics need to respond.  The Celtics looked very tired in this game and that makes me nervous.  Not to sound too cliche but I think the Celtics are going to have to win one, the Magic aren't going to give away any more games.

The way the Celtics have been this year (unpredictable), I don't dare predict, but I will anyway.  They lose game 5 and win game 6.

Meanwhile, the Suns are better than people are giving them credit for so they are going to give the Lakers a run.

I think the health/aggressivness of Rondo and Tony Allen, and KG's ability to knock down the open shot are keys to game 5.

If Rondo and Tony are feeling good and playing aggressive and KG hits that open elbow jumper, the Celtics will win game 5.
