Every team gives up a run, but often there is something to stop the bleeding. Frankly, Hedo was fouled on that drive to the bucket. If that was Paul Pierce he goes to the line. And the changed call at theend (airball) also kept us from regrouping. This was perhaps the most shocking bit of officiating I've seen in a long time. Forget the judgment calls, but to refuse to review a 3-point shot? On what basis? To change a call with absolutely no evidence whatsoever? On what basis? I wouldn't have been as upset had they called it as hitting the rim initially. Why not a jump ball? This really truly lends itself to conspiracy theories.

why does dwight continually put the ball on the floor and go to the middle you would think he would go baseline and use the glass, just an observation anyones thought or does that just make to much sense?

Stan should've called timeout when Marbury hit that second long jumper. It was not the time to keep AJ on the court.


Stan leaving terrible defenders in Johnson and Battie out there that long is the one single biggest reason we lost this game.

Game 7? Dude, I'm not even going to watch game 6. :lol:

And to be honest; I didn't watch game 5 either. I DVR'd the game, and if we won, I would have watched it. If we lost, then I'd rather know after the fact. This team puts me on an emotional rollercoaster when I watch them, especially during the playoffs. I'm tired of that.

I will not watch Game 6. If Stern allows a Game 7, I might watch it.

I am so fed up with the NBA right now that I am considering not paying nearly as much attention to it come next year.

All you people complaining about the refs..I have been complaining about them the past 2 games but BOTH games we LET them come back..we have to be mentally stronger and play through the blatant contact that the refs ignore. We can't be soft like Garrity in these situations.

Is there something in the water though? We choke so much. Nick Anderson's FT's? Choke. McGrady's 2nd round quote? Choke. Losing to Detroit like a billion times in a row? Choke. This series? Choke.

I also can't believe they made 21/21 FT's. Baby whos like a career 68% was hitting them like nothing. I knew that each and every one was going in.

I hope they learn something from tonight's game, cause it's pretty obvious that they have all the tools to beat Boston two more times.

IF there is a script designed to shut up those classless Boston fans and KG (I'm not talking of all Boston fans, I've found very intelligent and unbiased fans), this would be it. Winning game 7 in Boston would be the most delicious revenge I could think of. I don't think it will happen, but I'll watch until the last minute, and rant until the last minute.

By the way, where's HECTOR? I'd love to get insight from a very intelligent Magic fan about tonight...


Yes, sir. Winning a game 7 in Boston would be sweet. I still think they can do it and I'll be in front of the TV watching the game. I can't help it - unfortunetaly sometimes, like tonight.

But we all saw they can beat Boston, all they have to do is not play stupid basketball like they did tonight. Come on, people, let's have some faith, the season isn't over yet.
Vamo, Magic!

I don't mind if Dwight "twitters" in the offseason, but I want it to read something like this...

"wassup yall, this ya boy dwight. just got back from the gym again. shot 1000 jumpers and 1000 freethrows with my new shooting coach. stroking it like clarence carter baby. also worked on post moves against double and single coverage for 2 hours. too tired to answer questions tonight. peace yall."

We need somebody that can take it to the hole when we get in those situations. Shard and Hedo can but they are way too awkward and I guess cant draw fouls. They need to do the Pierce/Bosh thing and throw their heads back whenever they get hit

First, why was Lee not in the game instead of JJ????? Ask SVG.

And knowing we always give up offensive rebounds why couldn't we have Gortat in with Dwight at th end? Yea the players choked, but it pisses me off hear Stan say that the team went to a slowdown to run out the clock. Who's coaching the team a-hole??? You are. Again the wrong people on the court once again. Shaq was right. Good coach for preparation but awful at late game decisions.

Give boston phantom 3's (check)
Give them extra possessions (check)
Let them get by with battery, rape, and 1st degree murder (check)
Dont give the magic a single call in the last 5 minutes of the game (check)

:banghead:

this basically sums up the nba's bailout plan for themselves ands the celtics

i hate how the nba is effin rigged and cant give a real team, that is clearly more talented, a chance to win this....

but even with that joke from the refs we still should have won this game

stan needs to get his coaching strait b4 he looses his job

we need to stop choking and man up when the calls dont go our way

this stupid game set me off...like how was that possible....what just happened
