Should be a very good series.

Interesting match-ups all over the court.

Nelson/Rondo should be very exciting.

I think it will boil down to Howard and whether or not he can keep himself out of foul trouble.

Magical comeback in progress. The Celtics are wearing down. Could it be their age showing?

Start of the fourth, and barring a comeback - it looks like the Celtics will go up 1-0. I'm still trying to hold an ounce of hope.

John Barry nailed it. Magic use Hiward to get open looks and since Celtics can 1 on 1 defend him (because his offensive skill us comparable to Shaqs without to enormous size advantage) and they can't break a D down off the dribble, Celtics' D is going to be rough the whole series.

Rashard Lewis no shows any more, they're done. They'll lose their share with hi playing well, but no show is a freebie for Boston.

Looks like the Magic 3's weren't falling from the boxscore.

They were defended for te first time in a while. Nobody scares Boston wit the ability to get to the rack, so they were planted in grills.

Yeah the Bobcats acted like it was a terrible idea to defend the 3 and it ended up killing them.

Exactly. Howard's offensive game is anemic...Kendrick Perkins is a very good low post defender. Howard will have his hands full.

Your right about Lewis, they need him to be a consistent scorer...otherwise they are going to be relying on Carter, who is just a shade of what he used to be.

I didn't see Orlando swinging the ball around like they usually do...Howard better step up and start hitting those 4 footers or they are toast.

Orlando's done......

Just heard on ESPN that Boston is 32-0 in series where they have a 2 games to none advantage to start the series.

I'm gonna be sick if KG "Crazy Eyes" and Pauline Pierce win another title.

PP would be getting crucified right now for that idiotic foul on Carter if Orlando didn't repeatedly shoot themselves in the foot over the last minute.
