Figured I would start a thread on this since nothing else is on TV tonight.

A must win for the Magic IMO. If this is 3-0 after tonight it ends on Monday night. If the Magic can get this one, I think they win Monday as well and it goes 7.

You are correct about there being nothing on tv tonight.

I will probably flip between this game and Old School.

Damn MLB and their blackout rules. No Reds/Indians because of the FOX game at 7.

As for this game....the Magic need Rashard Lewis to start hitting. He has been a no show so far.

Magic need to get out and run, run, run in order to have a chance in this series.

I'll be honest, I never thought Rondo would be ANYTHING in the League. I thought he would be out after 2 or so years and playing in Europe somewhere.

Me too....he wasn't very good at Kentucky. Some of these slop shots he throws up are unbelievable, but he makes so many that.....maybe they are not slop shots.

Since when can you possess the ball on the ground and get up with it??

Regardless, it's that kind of hustle and want to that is allowing the C's to dominate

IMO it was a clean play, the possession happened on the pick-up, at any rate holy shit. The Lakers should be worried.

IMO, he had possession while still on the ground. That should have been a travel.


And yeah I'm not THAT worried as a Laker fan. We are playing just as well, if not better than the C's.

"And yeah I'm not THAT worried as a Laker fan. "

Wait, you're a Lakers fan and you argue about travelling? Jeez pal, the Magic years were in the heyday of NBA travelling. A buddy of mine had an old VHS tape of James Worthy stealing the ball around the opponents' 3 point line, taking at least 3 1/2 steps, dribbling twice, took another couple steps and dunking. To loosen up the mood before our HS games we'd play it at every home game (as if we'd get by with it, the Nazi refs in our league would take a microscope to our in bounds plays). For NBA standards, especially 80's/90's standards, that was pretty darn clean.
