Magic have the Pacers right where they want them
Basketball is driven by three principles:

1) Movement 2) Application of fundamentals 3) Predictability

Hope the magic can turn this around like the Clippers the other night in the Memphis series... Can believe I actually said I hope Orlando plays like the clippers in the playoffs...

yes ryan is causing the entire defense to collapse, jameer is rotating to slow, but ryan is the weak link screwing it all up

I don't understand why Stan just doesn't put Ryan on Hibbert.....so that Baby can Guard West....we need a better defender on West.....i'm more concerned of West than Hibbert to be honest....

I agree, with Lou Amundson in, Baby and Ryan should switch assignments.

Based on how this series has gone, you are probably right. This is getting annoying as hell though. We cannot control their size and depth, but we can certainly control our effort which seems to be lacking right now.

They'd just give it to Hibbert, who is a good scorer in his own right.

Yeah, which makes our already porous defense even worse. His inability to hold his own is causing overhelping and poor rotations.

If Stan doesm't adjust, we'll get obliterated tonight.

Only two shots, but Davis still touches the ball too much. A couple times he brought the ball up the court, for example. That's just a lost opportunity, there could be open guys that won't be spotted because you have the "center" bringing the ball up the court instead of getting it to the guys who can do the damage.

Little things like that, lots of little things aren't going good (as well as the big things of course).

Because Ryno would just get bullied in the post by Hibbert regardless. That kid couldn't cover a pot if I handed him the lid. He's being exposed with Dwight gone.

We're playing better on defense but not on offense. Why can't we get production form both sides at the same time?

The amount of money Ryan is going to get on his next deal is dwindling with each passing game.
