Fire Van Gundy. I'm freaking serious.

Get the Magic a freaking coach who can coach with a lead. This guy has no freaking clue! He's a damn choke artist just like Shaq said. This **** been going on all year but to happen in the playoffs MULTIPLE times is FREAKING RIDICULOUS and we as fans DESERVE BETTER!

Orlando was up 85-75 with 4:30 left and haven't scored since

Because when they get a lead, they stand at the 3 point line until there is 6 secs left on the clock then they dribble around for a couple of seconds and jack up a 3. They have no offense installed for that situation and haven't all year long. And they don't have Dwayne Wade to bail them out in those situations.

i don't know about firing him, but someone needs to tell him to run actual plays at the end and go through Dwight. Stop giving it to Hedo and having him iso.

I don't understand why we suddenly change how our system works in the final few minutes?

SVG is a great coach the first 3 quarters, I don't understand why the ball movement and decision making goes into the crapper whenever the game is ending.

Just keep doing whatever you did to get the big lead SVG!

Typical overreaction thread. Keep it in the game thread.
