Not a good sign indeed. But really, the players themselves just stoped being aggressive and started thinking too much. Players should blame themselves.

Pretty much the only two options. Sadly, I'm expecting the latter option, God do I hope I'm wrong.


judging from D12's press conference we are done.

Everyone should blame themselves. The players and the coaches blew it tonight.

Did that shot by Rondo even touch the rim?

Not on any of the 15 replays...unless you live in Boston apparently.

I was thinking the same thing, honestly, if we lose, it will be a relief because this emotional rollercoaster is maddening. I can just relax and look forward to the draft and free agency.

Nope. Not one iota, which makes it shocking that they would reverse the call. What I don't get is then why not call a jump ball if they really feel that it MIGHT have touched the rim? To decide to give it to the Celtics is just mind boggling. To me there can be no clearer evidence of something afoul.

you are not. they did.



Yup is a farce and a joke the refs came up with that lame excuse, holds no merit. Where is the integrity, does the NBA want to be taken serious? It the Celtics are the ones arguing how much u want to bet that they review it right away? The NBA where the Orlando Magic get screwed by David Stern, the refs, and the Magic players themselves....

It didn't even change direction, believe it or not. I watched it in extra slo-mo, the thing totally follower its trajectory. The only time it changed direction is when Perkins reached out to touch it.

If we can buckle down and win our first "must-win" game of the series, we can still take this series.

Not a fun time to be going into jury duty at 8 in the morning tomorrow, maybe I'll get a trial involving a Magic fan going on a crazed-induced killing spree.

I just hope we haven't mentally given up. We need a blowout win in game 6 to get our confidence back.

Our luck ftw.
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.

Good night you all, if that is even possible...

But, hey, the series is not over yet, even tough the Magic doesn't want us to believe in them, let's do it one more time and support them on game 6! These players don't need anything other than support right now. I know they gave away the game, but this is the playoffs, let's play against the Celtics, the refs, Stern, everybody, we can still win, I know it!
Vamo, Magic!
