ORLANDO, Fla. (AP)—Dwight Howard(notes) wants the ball more. Stan Van Gundy is telling fans not to panic, and some Orlando Magic players think their series with Boston should already be over.

Orlando seems to be teetering on a Magic Meltdown.

Howard met with Van Gundy and apologized Wednesday—but did not retract his statements—after publicly challenging the coach’s strategy in their Game 5 collapse. The Magic center even added another bold comment as the Celtics look to close out Orlando in Game 6 Thursday and move on to the Eastern Conference finals.

“We can’t give up hope,” Howard said Wednesday. “We’re in this series to win it. We are going to win this series.”

The best and only way to make all this nonsense go away is to win game 6 and 7. Just blow them out the next two games. We've been able to get leads on these guys, but we don't play with enough fire to keep them down.

As horrible as Tuesday was, we have to try and forget about all that. Season is NOT over yet. Just worry about winning tonight!

I have no confidence in this team right now, but crap all they have to do is win back to back games against this team. It's not like they have to win 4 in a row. Beat a team you are clearly better than 2 times. Everything bad that has happened in this series is a result of what the Magic have done, or not done. Yes Game 2, Boston did outplay us, but this series would be over right now if the Magic had just come to play 4 quarters in the past two games.

Unfortunately the Ducks-Red Wings game is going on at the same time tonight. The two biggest sporting events of the year for me are going on at the same time. Go figure. I guess I'll watch the Magic and listen to the Ducks on XM at the same time. So if Jon Berry is doing the game tonight, I'll have an excuse not to listen to it tonight.

i dont see how we can muster up a win tonight after two straight losses like that and all the dwight/svg controversy and rashard calling out the stupid players on this team. either we are gonna blow them out or get blown out of the building IMO hopefully its the first option. i guess one of the things that might work in our favor is that ppl i know that went out to party downtown last night said paul pierce and other celtic players were out and about all the spots downtown so maybe he will be hungover as s**t tonight :lol:

I have this gut feeling that Dwight and the team are seriously pissed at what they let happen and will throw all of their energy into making sure they win this one.

...Which might mean they won't be focused for a Game 7. But I don't care about that right now, and neither should they. Win tonight. That is all that matters as of Thursday, May 14, 2009.

This is off topic, but the banner at the bottom of my viewing page of this site is advertising for Celtics playoff tickets?? why? does it have to do with we are playing in Boston in some of our games?

In other news, i feel pretty good about tonight, as much as i am disgusted with this team right now, tonight seems to be looking pretty promising.

This team needs to perform as they did in Game 3 and just blow the C's out the building and control pretty much the whole game. We need a nice easy win, give us some confidence back and head to Boston for a huge Game 7. I said a lot of things after Tuesday's loss, a lot of which I meant. I declared the series over, but honestly we still have a punchers chance. We need to grab victory tonight, and then you know what, if we can play like we did in a Game 7 like we did in 3 1/2 quarters in Game 5, we'll have a chance. With that being said, first thing is first, win tonight! The last thing Boston wants is to go back home for a Game 7, obviously advantage them if it gets to that point, but let's do it! Let's for a game 7!!!

It has to do with us talking about the Celtics, unfortunately.

I have no control over the ads; if they pick up on any keywords that we are using, they will run ads for those keywords.

Apparently, they have Celtics tickets ads in their database...
