It really sucks to know as a fan of Orlando that you should be up 3-1 but are down 3-2

We didn't deserve to win. Our play down the stretch was appalling. Some of the shot selection was downright criminal. Yes, a couple of calls went against us (24 secs, the non call on Hedo's drive), but at the end of the day does anyone here really expect that we would have won if they had gone our way? Celtics executed, we didn't. That's why they won.

If we had Jameer we would probably win this series, but if they had Garnett we wouldn't.

We **** blew it. However if we come back to win this series then that would be huge. But I wasent even suprised we blew it. I was kind of numb. We blew it. Thats what 4-5 games we have blown in the playoffs, this one by far the worst.

As for the refs - the only call that f-ed us was reversing the 24-second violation call.

The crawling into a shell and blowing a lead in front of a national audience in one of the most important games any of these guys will likely ever play? That was all Magic baby.

Stand and cheer everyone, for your Orlando Tragic.





couldnt have said it any better...i dont even want to watch game 6

that are so embarrassing, they didnt deserve to win

Hi there everyone.

I know that a word of reason is not welcome here after such a bitter loss, but still i'm gonna share some.

WHAT THE **** was SVG doing in the crunch time? And i don't mean just the final posessions, but the the final 2-3 minutes. The Magics basicaly threw away 3 straight posessions and SVG was cool with that. Well, he seems to be cool with the whole world as long as his team is in front, no matter the runs. Then, when the time came, they wanted to make 1 and to miss one. Who gets the ball? The worst free throw shooter and the best rebounder on the team, so basicaly, you reduce your chances of getting the pursued income (first made, second miss) to minimum and even if you get it (which they did), you further reduce your chances of getting use of that - meaning, getting that preciuos offensive rebound (which they didn't). It was a dismal performance and SVG is the only one to blame. That specific moment, this is what he is paid for. Coach of the year my arse.

I think we will win the next one, but lose in game 7. Hopefully we can win the next two but it will be hard winning a game 7.

No ORL, you got it wrong...
It is a foul on Lee, since his shirt touched the glorious hands of a Celtic player. We'd be fortunate he isn't suspended for next game...

Is there a reason Lee played 11 minutes?

Give it to Dwight? Seriously? He is friggin god awful offensively. He had some of the worst shots I have seen tonight. And he can't even guard **** Glen Davis. Learn how to play some 1-on-1 defense for god sake. The guy is friggin 6'7 and Dwight isn't even close to defending him well.

EPIC FAIL !!!!!!

This is inexcusable. Boston took this one from us. We were too weak minded to respond to their toughness and we failed. The coaching was beyond poor. If you blame it on the players then you by default admit that SVG has no authority over what happens on the court. If he can't get the players to play hard nose basic basketball then he has no control over this team. Either way he was out coached in the last 4:00 and it cost us another game.

I keep wanting to hate the Celtics but the team that pisses me off the most is my team and that just plain sucks!

where the F is the emotion? when the refs started gathering after the celtics players and coach started bitching, the magic players should've been right there yelling that the call was right. Instead they made it seem like the call should be reversed by staying quiet.
