Hey all,

I am a long time Magic Fan, and I just wanted to congratulate you guys for coming out over us in the series.

You guys outplayed us, and deserved to win it with how we played in this series. I can honestly say that you guys came out to win it, and we just didn't step up enough until it was two late.

Good luck with the rest of the series guys!

Tarnag,

Your guys played great in a hard fought series. Thanks for the congratulations and the support going forward. We are very proud of our team for pulling out a win against the Magic, who we all have great respect for. I hope your guys come back stronger next year and we can see a great rivalry build for years to come.

Thanks for being a great sportsman about this series. Losing is never easy. Trust me. Us Hawks fans know all too well. Cheers to you and the Magic.

Same here from me. I can't sleep and this will be a tough pill to swallow, but you guys played well. I have a lot going through my mind (all of which is Magic related), but enjoy it. Do not take it for granted because no team wins forever. You guys are classy fans and continue to stay that way. Never had a problem with your team and still don't.
Peace, from a Magic fan.

Thanks, hopefully we play the same lineup. People need to stop saying go back to small ball.

Do you guys realize that Josh at the 4 makes him play on the perimeter ala Rashard Lewis.
If any adjustments are made maybe it's more Josh Powell and Hilton as backup 4s.

We CANNOT go back to the Josh and Horford on the perimeter lineup. U guys even suggesting it makes me want to vomit. This makes Josh a) a stretch 4 b) our center, he has to stop all penetration and block shots with Marvin Williams backing him up instead of Jason Collins/backup Zaza. Stop it that lineup makes no sense vs the Bulls.
Same strategy if we beat the Magic with it and got smacked by both the Bulls and Magic without it then u do the math on what needs to be done.

Dwight Howard>Joakim Noah. Jason Collins and Zaza can guard Noah and force him into bad shots and cut off rebounds.

Hopefully the players remember what happened when they made Josh play center against the Bulls.

yes, congratulations hawks fan. You deserve it. I will be rooting for you guys against the Bulls. Hopefully crawford dominates them like he did us.

Our conference will be the most heated in the league next year between the magic, hawks and heat. Fun times ahead, and we'll have a rivalry for a long time it seems.

Congrats again.
