The Magic obviously stand a good chance of losing a road game w/o Howard. So there's a realistic chance the Cs will have a 2 or 3 day (which?) rest advantage over the winner of the Orlando/Philly series (which I imagine will ultimately be Orlando).

That would be hugely welcome, considering how many extra minutes the guys have played (four overtimes), how tired Pierce looks, and how beaten-up Rondo's ankles seem to be.

hmmm.. I've seen too much of the NBA this year, to count on it happening...Orlando will win in Philly--and we will be playing Game 7.

It could the way around if we don't win the next game tomorrow. I hope Philly helps us though.
