We had a long, enjoyable run, and I would like to thank every Orlando Magic fan who contributed to our small community on the web. This message board will be left online as an archive into the thoughts and minds of a group of Magic fanatics who lived through a 21-win season, the drafting of Dwight Howard, and an eventual NBA Finals appearance.

3-17 run at the end of the game? Pathetic. We deserve to lose. The Cs want it more than we do.

The change on the shot clock violation sucked, the no call on Hedo going into Perkins sucked. But this is not Game 4. The officiating was the best it was all series.

If you look up choke in the dictionary, there should be a picture of these gutless pansies. We're so much better than them it isn't even funny. But you let them go on a 11 or 12 to 0 run to close out the game? If it weren't for intentional fouls, we might not have scored a point in the last 6 minutes or so. Cleveland just won't the Eastern Conference tonight because they'll go through Boston like we should have been able to do. We're a joke.

Seriously, this Magic team sickens me. From the start of the 4th quarter, when we were up 14, I knew we would lose this game. How is that even possible that I knew that? Oh right. We don't know how to take smart shots late in a game for some reason.

We're up 2-1 in the series and have home court advantage, and next thing you know our crappy as hell play now has us down 3-2 and on the brink of elimination.

Ugly.

Man I'm speechless. This team really doesn't know how to close teams out. Like I said in another thread this series will be decided in 7 games. But I'm not confident we can win it. We lack mental toughness to beat the defending champs.

Amen.

I think most Magic fans are just sickened by how this team has looked in the playoffs.

I want a say a few things, and some Magic apologists might hate more for it.

First off, Dwight Howard is one of the most overrated/overhyped players in this league. Yeah, great rebounder, but honestly, I see this team get out muscled and out played inside especially on the offensive glass. Let's be real, this team played better with Gortat in the game tonight in my mind and he outplayed Dwight.

Rafer Alston SUCKS! PERIOD~! He gave this team a nice boost in the regular season, but he is not a good point guard, you can see why he bounced around a lot before finding a home for a little bit in Houston. Very inconsistent and he can't shoot or finish at the rim to save his life. Missed a wide open three that would have given us the lead back after our choke job.

Our coach, he panics all the time and it rubs down on our team. Shaq said it best when he dissed him after our victory over the Suns at the O-Rena.

This team is not elite, PERIOD! This is not an elite team, changes have to be made. Let Turk walk, let him go! Get Rafer out of my face, send him packing in the offseason. Hope Jameer cfan finally stay healthy next year get me a bruiser at power forward or just let Gortat and Battie play the 4 next year alongside Dwight.

I hate this team right now, what a disappointing series.

f**k it. This is a high school girls team in disguise. Can't close out worth a s**t, horrible shot selection, no composure.

Game, Series, Season.

I would be SHOCKED if this series went to a 7th game. I'd be blow away, but like you said, I doubt we would even keep a Game 7 close.

Dwight's offensive game in this series has resembled his game when he first came into the league. This has looked like the 04-05 version of Dwight.

And Ray Allen has sucked for the whole series. I'm very disappointed with Howard's performance in this series.

Well I'm not gonna entirely give up hope, but its almost all gone right now. If this team can somehow pull a victory out of their a** AT HOME in Game 6, it gives a glimmer of hope for a Game 7.
