Without Lee and Dwight this game will be hard, but hopefully the rest of the team coming out on fire and take it into their own hands, especially Lewis and Hedo.

Lets just end it now.

Lets gut out a good win. This game doesn't have to be pretty(not like any of the others were either) just need the win without howard and lee.

Who wants to bet (if we win this series) some of the media will portray it as Dwight should of got ejected and then suspended the next game. Wouldn't surprise me really.

Philly just asked for it. The Gorotat will be unleashed and destruction is imminent.

I predict foul trouble for Gortat. It won't be his fault though. The fouls will be bogus. DeWhino bought himself a few calls and a suspension with his press conference.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

If we win this game, the media will probably downplay Dwight's impact on the game.

No matter what Dwight does, it seems like the media is out to criticize him one way or another.

Dwight dunks: "OMG he has no offense"
Dwight smiles too much: "OMG he's not mean enough"
Dwight throws an elbow: "OMG what a jerk"

The Magic will have to scrape and claw to win.

Personally, I think they will.
Basketball is driven by three principles:

1) Movement 2) Application of fundamentals 3) Predictability

I'm with Craig...

I think the sleeping bear has been poked in the eye here and we rally to an upset road win.

I agree as well.

The only bad part about Gortat starting (besides the absence of Dwight Howard) is the fact that some team will see his talent and might be tempted to sign him in the offseason.

Win time. Philly's shooting is finally coming back to earth. They're not hard to guard anymore.

At this point I couldn't care less about that, one game at a time to get us through this series.

with the big guy out, the rest of the team might actually bring their scrota to philly this time.

i would love to win this game without 2 (3) of our starters and watch the faces of philly fans, but everybody needs to step up for that to happen

If the team is as upset as most of us are then we have a good chance to pull this out. Philly will be shocked tomorrow. I'm just glad I don't have to stew on this game for more then one day.

Gortat is more then capable of guarding phillys bigs. Battie and maybe foyle will get some time to shine.

on another note if I were Dwight I wouldn't give another interveiw to TNT or ESPN for quite a while. They have alot to do with this. The nerve of a guys like barkley smith and ledger. F'k the haters we will win this.

The key will be the play of Lewis and Turk. We are gonna need big games from both these guys. Shard played real good in Game 5 and Turk wasn't bad in Game 4 so hopefully they can put it together and both play well.

Good defense+Lewis and Turk playing well+Gortat destruction=Magic win by 4, 88-84
