Magic @ Celts game 4 thread

[HarlemHeat37]

I think what is meant is the the highlight of his CAREER are his dunks. That wouldn't be the case if he was a winner.

I agree, I've never called Vince a winner..

He's my favorite non-Spur player along with KG, always has been, but I obviously recognize his flaws..he's soft, he didn't live up to his talent, he doesn't live for basketball like the elite players, he isn't a good defensive player, he's never been a winner..

I just argue all the misconceptions about him, because there are MANY..

[NewJerSpur]

Man-o-man.

[picc84]

Did Dwight try to bank that? :lol

[NewJerSpur]

Magic's offense looks scary.

[NewJerSpur]

Did Dwight try to bank that? :lol

Terrible.

[Killakobe81]

Howard Can NOT miss 2 FT's

[lefty]

[HarlemHeat37]

KG missed an open Allen there, could have been a big one..rare missed pass by KG..

Wow, Nelson with some luck..

[resistanze]

Fluke city!

[Come_On_Now]

Pierce really needs to pass the god damn ball... and lol @ the pip-squeak hitting the luckiest three ever.

[NewJerSpur]

Great job running Ray off the line.

[lefty]

llllllllllllooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

[resistanze]

Clutch city!

[pauls931]

boston is definitely tired.

[ffadicted]

[HarlemHeat37]

Wooooooo Jameeeeerrrr, god damn..

[lefty]

Jameer Bird !

[Come_On_Now]

That one was all skill though :lol

[tlongII]

Jameer with the daggers!

[Amarelooms]

lol at the Celtics....brick after brick...letting a midget kill you with 3's

:elephant

[redzero]

Damn, Jameer.

[picc84]

Nelsons so small, everytime he raises up I think somebody's sending his shit to the backcourt.

[ATXSPUR]

Game

[lefty]

Lame

[NewJerSpur]

Don't let Boston get off any 3's.

[Spurologist]

Nelsons so small, everytime he raises up I think somebody's sending his shit to the backcourt.

:lol

[Killakobe81]

Hey let me telll you this won't happen but I would LOVE to play the Magic in the Finals even WITHOUT HCA ...

No way they can beat us in a 7 game series with VC and this bullshit offense ...

[NewJerSpur]

Still too much time left, but this could schange the complexion of the series if the Magic win.

[ffadicted]

Magic become the first team in NBA history to come back from 0-3

[Spurologist]

Boston has gotten away with 3 straight offensive fouls IMO. Zebras letting them play....I like it as long as it's called both ways

[NewJerSpur]

Why?

[resistanze]

Piss poor defence.

[picc84]

Stan. :lol

[ffadicted]

omg worst defense ever by the Magic... they had to do one thing, DONT LET THEM GET ANY 3s OFF

And they leave fucking Ray Allen open. They deserve to lose

[tlongII]

How do they leave Allen WIDE OPEN?

[NewJerSpur]

You're seriously going to double Big Baby in the post?

[HarlemHeat37]

LOL @ Lewis, wow..

[lefty]

SHit


Allen shooting FT's :lmao

[picc84]

Time for Jameer to chuck another three.

[NewJerSpur]

Magic can't give this game away fast enough with this idiocy.

[lefty]

Crofl rofltototomao

[resistanze]

LOL @ Lewis, wow..

:lol Doubling Big Baby!

[Spurologist]

Stan Van Gundy is a fucking idiot......Unreal

1. Not pushing the ball up
2. horrendous subs.....taking out Redick fucked up responsibilities. The players he trusts should be in throughout.

[Killakobe81]

You're seriously going to double Big Baby in the post?

That was on Rashard NOT matt Barnes ...no way Rashard should leave Ray to double what an idiot ...

[j.dizzle]

hahahahah how do you do that???? allen is the main person on the floor in that situation lmao stupid team

[HarlemHeat37]

Orlando is just begging to lose, they really don't want the win..

[ffadicted]

phew

[resistanze]

Wow...

[NewJerSpur]

Dumb foul by Pierce.

[NewJerSpur]

That was on Rashard NOT matt Barnes ...no way Rashard should leave Ray to double what an idiot ...

Agreed....totally ridiculous.

[Spurologist]

Fuck.....I wanted Big Baby in a poster

[HarlemHeat37]

Howard shooting FTs like Duncan..

[ffadicted]

nvm, fucking clutch allen

[tlongII]

Orlando is sooo fucking stupid!

[HarlemHeat37]

Ray Allen in clutch time is disgusting..I never expect him to miss that shit..

[siraulo23]

LoL defense

[redzero]

Ray Allen is the clutchest player in the NBA. I don't give a fuck what anybody says.

[picc84]

Ray-Ray. :downspin:

[Dex]

Um, you might want some of those time outs at the END of the game, Stan.

[j.dizzle]

LMAO again

[lefty]

:lol Doubling Big Baby!
didn't Davis have a small guy defending him?

[resistanze]

:lmao they should be doubling Allen.

[Killakobe81]

I know their was a good screen set ...

But can someone please shoot VC and put him out of his misery?

[NewJerSpur]

Good screen by KG. Got to get Dwight involved.

[j.dizzle]

why does this fatfuck keep callin timeouts? haha

[Spurologist]

What's going on.....Ray Allen isn't exactly a clutch player

[ffadicted]

Jameer bailed out there, he's gotta stop ballhoggin

[NewJerSpur]

Get it up to the rim, and let Dwight do the rest...don't settle for long jumpers.

[picc84]

Magic need to put Jordan Rules on Ray-Ray.

[tlongII]

Huge putback by Dwight!

[ATXSPUR]

Jackson is really difficult to listen to.

[Spurologist]

Kendrick Perkins ready to throw haymakers...dude is always pissed

:rollin

[j.dizzle]

Dwight came to play tonight, guess he heard all the shit talking

[BUMP]

Do we have to have a timeout after every fuckin basket?

[resistanze]

Amare and Dwight just arrived to the CFs.

[NewJerSpur]

No 3's, please.

[NewJerSpur]

Lolololol.

[resistanze]

Throwback KG.

[j.dizzle]

Lmao kg

[lefty]

Game over

[ogait]

Carter on Allen again

[HarlemHeat37]

KG with some uncharacteristic poor passing/passing decisions in this OT..

[ffadicted]

This is the worst offensive plan I've ever seen by the magic... ball hoggin jameer, they're being bailed out here hardcore

[resistanze]

Celtics get away with a whole lot of grabbing and holding.

See Boston Celtics (1946–present).

[NewJerSpur]

Pierce choking.

[BUMP]

C'mon Boston end this series

[tlongII]

Orlando trying to gag.

[Spurologist]

Um, you might want some of those time outs at the END of the game, Stan.

http://afennisfordembo.files.wordpress.com/2009/03/stanvangundy.jpg

[j.dizzle]

good god soooo much fail on both ends

[picc84]

Magic want this game as much as herpes. :lol

[NewJerSpur]

This is the worst offensive plan I've ever seen by the magic... ball hoggin jameer, they're being bailed out here hardcore

I don't trust them to complete two competent passes in a row at this point, especially with Boston's defense.

[Spurologist]

:lol

@ Frank Caliendo getting free air time

[HarlemHeat37]

NBA players rarely miss two shots in a row from the same spot..lucky for Orlando there, especially with a clutch player like Pierce..

[NewJerSpur]

What a game.

[pauls931]

congrats LA

[picc84]

O-Town better bring it for game 6.

[Spurologist]

Where are those brooms now Pierce?????

:lmao

[tlongII]

Nice job by the Magic. Good to see them get this win.

[HarlemHeat37]

congrats LA

why?..

[HarlemHeat37]

Please Vince, play like game 1 again..

[NewJerSpur]

NBA players rarely miss two shots in a row from the same spot..lucky for Orlando there, especially with a clutch player like Pierce..

You'll rarely see him come up short on both shots....he's been kicking their asses all series before that moment.

[resistanze]

Nice to know God hated you for Games 1 to 3. Stupid church ass nigga.

[tlongII]

The Magic will be dangerous now.

[NewJerSpur]

Matt Barnes and Rashard Lewis are going to have to get better game by game for the Magic to have a shot at making this a series.

[NewJerSpur]

Props to Brandon Bass for hitting a big fadeaway jumper in the 3rd to quiet the Celtics' rally when the play was broken and Dwight was on the bench. Also played some decent defense on KG.

[Spurologist]

hmmmmm so God helps you win games....what happens when you lose?

[NewJerSpur]

hmmmmm so God helps you win games....what happens when you lose?

An Angel loses it's wings?

[NewJerSpur]

Dwight Howard getting his points the old fashion way: beasting.

Boston's going to come out pissed on Wednesday. Got to be ready.

[DJ Mbenga]

why?..

old ass kg wont get a lot of rest

[DJ Mbenga]

best part the game:

[DesignatedT]

vince carter is a fucking joke. i think its fair to say that this dude is done.

[tlongII]

What the fuck do you know about teams being dangerous.

Dude, I'm the resident expert on all things NBA. Recognize.

[picc84]

It took the Magic 4 games to start playing hard. Thats some crazy shit.

[NewJerSpur]

Pietrus needs to wakeup and realize last year (and the first few rounds of the playoffs this year) are over.

[Spurologist]

An Angel loses it's wings?

You're right.....Dwight probably wasn't drinking enough red bull games 1-3

[NewJerSpur]

You're right.....Dwight probably wasn't drinking enough red bull games 1-3

LOL....he also makes Baby Jesus cry.

[cobbler]

Though still a long shot... what if Orlando comes back and wins this series.

Boston Bruins and Celts lose a series in the same year after leading 3-0. WoW!

[crc21209]

NBA players rarely miss two shots in a row from the same spot..lucky for Orlando there, especially with a clutch player like Pierce..

He looked pretty gassed at that point...

[j.dizzle]

Dude, I'm the resident expert on all things NBA. Recognize.
The resident expert of being tacky as fuck you mean :lmao

[cobbler]

No post game wink Paul? awwwwww

[NewJerSpur]

Can't believe the Magic put together some decent defensive fronts in overtime after getting worked to close the 4th. Maybe this is the confidence they need? The Celtics will make adjustments to counter Jameer's agressiveness I assume, will the Magic counter when the chips inevitably get down?

[Killakobe81]

KG with some uncharacteristic poor passing/passing decisions in this OT..

Tired legs ...lead to tired mind ..

[Killakobe81]

He looked pretty gassed at that point...

He was ... he carried them until Ray got hot late on offense ...

[j.dizzle]

UH-OH only 1 day of rest between games now, Orl will run like crazy next game...KG & Pierce could barely move at the end of this game.

[Killakobe81]

(For Capt bringdown) Oh and Lakers in 6 ...Championship teams win close-out games on their home floor ... LOL

Seriously doesnt meant much ..unless this goes 7 Magic just delaying the inevitable ...

[mogrovejo]

I can't believe the refs bailed out Jameer Nelson on that absolutely legit Glen Davis' block.

[NewJerSpur]

Wonder if Doc will hold a practice tomorrow, and if so, for how long given the distance of this game?

Magic also need to run given the ineptitude for much of the series of their halfcourt execution and need to hope the shortened rotation of the older Celtics team gasses them a bit.

[NewJerSpur]

I can't believe the refs bailed out Jameer Nelson on that absolutely legit Glen Davis' block.

It was a clean block, you're right in that regard.

[Giuseppe]

I can't believe the refs bailed out Jameer Nelson on that absolutely legit Glen Davis' block.

Oh, Mo, you ain't gonna start cryin' tonite are you? Just take your humiliation like a trooper.

ha, ha!!!!!!!!!!!!

[NewJerSpur]

He's right about that call, but both teams had their chances in OT and the game on whole was pretty fairly officiated.

[mogrovejo]

Hey Sal, when you done sweeping over there, bring me a slice of pizza.

Nobody called a cab, paki.

[Giuseppe]

Hey Sal, when you done sweeping over there, bring me a slice of pizza.

Crucify 'em, Luva....send these Boston fucks to the tree of woe!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Giuseppe]

Testify, Luva, testify!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mogrovejo]

Hey Sal, you ok? Did you get splinters when they yanked that broom out ya ass?

Oh, assuming I understand the retarded broom references correctly, I never said or thought Boston would sweep this series - you were the one saying the Lakers would sweep Phoenix. Unfortunately, Artest thought it was more important to brick shot after shot and Pau was too scared of Stoudemire.

I like our chances to win 4 games in a row much better in the next series if we make it through Orlando.

Now, shut up Paki. This is the internet and we may pretend we're all equals and all that jazz, but there are still limits.

Don't get defensive, Mo. So what, so what you lost at home in a close out game? Don't let Luva get to you like this.

At home though, Mo?

tee, hee.

[mogrovejo]

Orlando played well, they're a good team. I don't care much for the home/road stuff in series like this one. I think it's meaningless.

[bostonguy]

Things got a tad bit interesting. Not worried or even upset. If we drop the next 2, then ill start to be concerned. Orlando showed some pride tonight. Gotta give them props for not quitting.

[Jacob1983]

Lakaluva, how many points are you going to score in game 4 against Phoenix?

[LnGrrrR]

Don't get defensive, Mo. So what, so what you lost at home in a close out game? Don't let Luva get to you like this.

At home though, Mo?

tee, hee.

Is it really surprising? Celt's worst game in the Cavs series was at home, and we lost to the Heat at home. I don't see why anyone's surprised, really.

The Magic needed OT to beat us... no way will they take the next three if Rondo plays even slightly better.

[NewJerSpur]

Looks like Matt Barnes' back is getting stronger the way he's been battling for looseballs as the playoffs has gone on. Those extra possessions were key in stemming some of the runs by Boston and allowing Orlando to put together better halfcourt plays after gaffing initially.

[LnGrrrR]

My ass, they played like shit. You got beat by two players in a closeout game on your own floor. Carter, Lewis, Peaches, and all of those scrubs sucked. You guys just couldn't get it done. We closed them out on their floor last year, and that old stiff Russell had to hand Kobe the trophy named after him, while PJ sported that cap that one upped ol Red. I smoked a cigar to that one buddy. Did you see Bill's face? He just slithered away like the snake he is.

I seem to remember a team the year before closing out a series on their home floor...

[LnGrrrR]

Though still a long shot... what if Orlando comes back and wins this series.

Boston Bruins and Celts lose a series in the same year after leading 3-0. WoW!

That would crush boston fans, no doubt. But it's not going to happen, anymore than the Miami Heat were 'dangerous' after Wade went off in Game 4.

[LnGrrrR]

That's ancient news, son. As MJ said, you guys were lucky.

Lucky? That's some weak shit right there. Because Bynum was injured? Shit, Bynum's injured on every day ending with a Y.

MJ thought he could play baseball. He was wrong about that, too.

[tlongII]

lol at Laker fans talking trash. You boys got yer own issues to worry about at the moment.

[Giuseppe]

Things got a tad bit interesting. Not worried or even upset. If we drop the next 2, then ill start to be concerned. Orlando showed some pride tonight. Gotta give them props for not quitting.

Daddy-O, if there are two charters returning to Boston after Game 5 you'll be tremblin' in your panties.

[LnGrrrR]

And you're going to lose to us at home, that's if you get past the lowly Magic. We're already waiting.

I think you should check the series. We're up 3-1, you're up 2-1. Don't you have to take care of Phoenix tomorrow?

I guess it doesn't matter though that Bynum can't figure out where to go against a zone, if he only is going to play 8 minutes. :lol

[NewJerSpur]

The loss to the Heat was on the road.

We'll see about the rest my friend.

[LnGrrrR]

The loss to the Heat was on the road.

We'll see about the rest my friend.

Ah shit, my bad. I'm forgetful on long days. :) Anyways, we play better on the road this year, for some weird reason. I'm not worried yet. Orlando wins the next two games, I'll worry.

Ln, finally gettin' his shit on.

And it only took losing at home in a close out game up 3-0 to prompt it.

WOOF, WOOF!

[NewJerSpur]

Ah shit, my bad. I'm forgetful on long days. :) Anyways, we play better on the road this year, for some weird reason. I'm not worried yet. Orlando wins the next two games, I'll worry.

Meh, I've gaffed on stuff like that myself, no worries. Orlando has a tall task against them, and the way they shriveled up in Game 3 would make me nervous in terms of seeing them come back to Boston, but maybe things are beginning to turn around.

I can understand your confidence, your team is still in full control and has outplayed the Magic for much of the series. I just hope the games are of the calibur of this one moving forward at least. :toast

[Jacob1983]

I would love to see the Magic come back and win this series. I know it's a huge longshot and has never happened in NBA history but the Bruins choked a 3-0 lead on the same floor that the Celtics play on so it's possible.

[LnGrrrR]

Ln, finally gettin' his shit on.

And it only took losing at home in a close out game up 3-0 to prompt it.

WOOF, WOOF!

Technically, they earned it after the Cavs series, and backed it up by going 3-0.

What kind of fan would I be if I didn't back my boys in green up when they have an off night?

I mean, damn, Laka sucks Kobe's dick whether he's 13 for 20 with 30 pts, or he's 9 for 27 with 20 pts. :lol

[DazedAndConfused]

I wouldn't count the Magic out.

The Celtics are an old team and it is definitely not in their interest to prolong the series any longer. Pierce and Garnett were totally gassed at the end.

I'm predicting Celtics in 6, but I would not be surprised if the Magic can push this to a 7 game series.

[cobbler]

lol at Laker fans talking trash. You boys got yer own issues to worry about at the moment.

...and it isn't the Blazers! :lol

[21_Dickings]

The SUNS HAVE CURLED UP IN THE "please don't hit me again position." i;M ON SOME LIQUOR, SO i DONT GIVE A FUCK ABOUT MY TYPING.:rollin

Getting on some of that good Pakistani shit, huh?

Careful, Luva:

ISLAMABAD - At least 12 people died after drinking locally brewed liquor apparently tainted with lethal chemicals in Pakistan’s eastern province of Punjab, a news report said Monday.

No way this goes more than 6 games. The C's showed their age, which is why they need to lay it all out next game and close it out. They missed a few shots they usually make, and Rondo rushed some stuff. I trust Doc to make some adjustments, and Perkins to play better against Dwight.

[LnGrrrR]

If you like Bailey's, you'll love Sangster's Jamaica Rum Cream Liqueur. Shit is like liquid gold. Amare is toast. They zoned to keep from further embarrassment.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll check it out. I'm a pussy drinker; I like white russians and girly shit like that.

I gotta say, I'll be surprised if you don't close it out in 6 or less. Amare was pulling some sick moves, but I'm "questioning his motivation/dedication". If he's pissed about that, too bad. :lol

[mogrovejo]

They need to come up with better defense against those staggered screens they were setting for Nelson. Other than that it's just about Rondo playing more aggressively. Something was bothering him tonight.

[Venti Quattro]

Except the 8 dimes, Rondo was pathetic tonight.

[picc84]

Who influenced this game more....Vince Carter or Shuttlesworth moms?

[mogrovejo]

Go drink your lassi, paki.

[angelbelow]

holy shit VC has turned into shawn marion

[namlook]

lol at Laker fans talking trash. You boys got yer own issues to worry about at the moment.


...and it isn't the Blazers! :lol

Gotta love the Jailblazers fans talking about other teams having "issues".

[TampaDude]

(For Capt bringdown) Oh and Lakers in 6 ...Championship teams win close-out games on their home floor ... LOL


Championship teams win close-out games on their opponent's floor, too...

lol at Laker fans talking trash. You boys got yer own issues to worry about at the moment.

Agree ...Tlong.

But keep in my mind Magic could of easily wone Game 1 or 2 ESPECIALLY 2 ...

Game 3 was a rollover this series is A LOT closer than 3-1 ...

Dont get me wrong Celts have played well ...and have out-executed Magic ...they SHOULD win in 5 or 6

But if they Lose tomorrow night ...as TIRED as they seem ...they could be in trouble.

Celts play us tough no doubt about it Id rather Magic win from a easier path standpoint. They fold in most close games if their 3's arent falling ...


BUT from a vengeance standpoint all TRUE Laker fans WANT the Celts even if they make us a bit anxious ...given their overall advantage in our rivalry ...

[Killakobe81]

Championship teams win close-out games on their opponent's floor, too...

http://img116.imageshack.us/img116/5960/fisher18wo.gif

I agree and we have done that twice so far this post-season ...

BUT from a rivalry standpoint all TRUE Celtics fans WANT the Lakers even if they make us a bit anxious ...given they are the defending champs ...

Fify :)

LOL I respect you Lngrr ... you probably most realstic Celtic fan on here IIRC ...

How is the "little one"
