Meh...you cant say you "choked" when you got swept.

See Nick Anderson.
Oh and Orlando had the best home record and 2nd all time during the reg season that year.
39-2
And only like 2 home losses in the playoffs coming from MJ's bulls
While having HCA they lost the first 2 at home.
See Nick Anderson.
I just mean you cant really blame him for choking considering the Magic had no chance of winning that series anyway.
Maybe we should send the results of this poll to Dwight to make him feel better. :lol
Although he actually didnt sound to down on himself in the press conference.

I can never really blame the Mavericks for losing that series because the refs decided who was going to win that series.

Out of those 3 choices? Dwight Howard easy...Jameer shouldn't have been in the game and Dallas didnt choke this year, they just got manhandled

Out of the 3 it has to be Dwight, but from the team Hedo sucked the most balls, he hit one clutch 3 then pissed it away. Jameer, although he's back early shoud also get a mention for standing inside the 3 line on the fisher shot.

It's hard to call Howard a choker when he set a Finals record for blocks last night and grabbed more than 20 boards. Yeah, those FTs were killers, but he's a terrible free throw shooter. I'll go with Nelson. Giving Fisher the three-point line with 5 seconds left in a game up 3 is about as stupid a thing as I have seen this playoffs.

Nah, the fact that he was even in the game was wayyyy worse

Honestly, Rashard, Hedo, and SVG all deserve to be added into the poll.
-Rashard choked the entire game.
-Hedo is a good shooter and he missed three of four FTs late in the game.
-SVG playing Jameer that much in the fourth and not properly instructing what the players needed to do in those final 11 or so minutes of regulation.
Simply, there is plenty of blame to go around on that Magic team for last night's loss.

It's hard for me to blame Hedo when he was directly responsible for those 5 points of that 87-82 lead they had with 30-something seconds left. That three and then the shot he hit after that were both pretty clutch.

The fact is that all of the Magic players played well enough to WIN THE GAME had Howard made one of those free throws or Jameer Nelson had decided not play for the drive (freaking idiot).

Rashard played well enough? If Rashard Lewis makes 2-of-9 instead of 1-of-9 in regulation, the Magic don't have to rely on Howard to win the game. Had Hedo made 2-of-4 free throws instead of 1-of-4 free throws late in the fourth, the Magic are up 4 when Dwight is fouled and his free throws don't matter. You can blame Dwight and Jameer for their mess-ups in the final seconds, but that doesn't mean you absolve the other players or SVG for their mistakes that could have also sealed the game just because they happened before the final 11 seconds of regulation.

2) Jameer Nelson
3) The Dallas Mavericks
4) Stan Van Gundy
Fixed. Im blaming SVG, his decisions to Bench Rafer and not to foul on the last play of the 4th were MikeWoodsonVinnyDelNegroAveryJohnson-Esque.
