Pitbullz you do realize that that is the same philly team our bench blew out for 3 quarters? The same team our bench took to OT. The same team that beat our bench by 1 point. It looks they doubled their victory score over your starters. Perhaps your not as ready as you think?

Will be a good matchup if it happens. I think Orlando will bounce back from this game and take care of Philly still in 5 or 6 games. Boston though seems real shaky without KG. The Bulls have really played well since that deadline deal. We'll see how they adjust to Rose tearing them apart. No KG and I think Orlando will be who the Cavs see in the ECF.

Orlando should still win easily, but what a nice reality check for all their fans, especially that guy that called out my post. Hilarious.

I'm Just competetive because I know now that Boston is done the Cavs, although they are the left overs, are going to be a test for us.....an open book test but a test nonetheless. Should be an easy road to the finals for Orlando so thanks for beating Detroit. It's too bad about Boston, they were the only team in the east besides Detroit that match up well with us. It's a damn shame.

It's still trolling, that's your 4th warning

You must be in serious denial. The Magic lost to the same Philly team that our BENCH played their STARTERS for 3 quarters and lost in overtime by one point. The Magic aren't as good as they were when Nelson was healthy, so you shouldn't be talking like they are the best.

Just as a huge NBA fan, why did Van Gundy go away from what was working for three quarters and not pound it into Howard during the fourth? The whole quarter he did not create space for his shooters outside and tried that two man game with Howard and Turk. If they try that again they will be shocked somemore. What was he thinking? Nice job Philly.

They've done that the whole season, and I always keep asking the same thing. Why would their strategy change now? I've never been a fan of the way that team is coached, but luckily for us they dont correctly utilize the best big man in basketball.

I said earlier that Orl doesnt have much playoff experience, and it showed against philly. I expect them to bounce back and win the series, but playing with the expectations of being the favorite can be tricky when things start going against you. Thats why you dont see a team without a good amount of playoff experience just roll to the championship.
