Orlando's finals were beating the Cavs.
Cavs Lakers what could have been.
I saw nothing in Game 1 that would make me think that..but that's the beauty..it's not about Game 1...it's about Game 2...We'll see you after that one..if you win that one, it's pretty much over.
Orlando's finals were beating the Cavs.
Cavs Lakers what could have been.
that scrubby Cavs team. The Lakers want Boston next year in the finals. Getting revenge for 08 en route to a back to back will be in sweeet.
that was the Magic led by Alston, these Magic will be inconsistent the rest of the series because of Nelson, it sucks because this could have been a compe ive series.
One of the Magic need to literally re injure Nelson's shoulder
The Cavs never belonged in the NBA Finals to begin with. Way too immature and arrogant for a team that has accomplished absolutely nothing.
I want to see BOS in next year's Finals. The Lakers have some retribution to deliver.
Premature ejaculatiiiiiiion
And that would be Lebron's load right in your mouth all year long. Yeah the King of the Bronze Medal sure face ed the Lakers in the finals dude!
Championship rings
Sun Yue: 1
Dirk: 0
hey i thought you were rooting for Mbenga's second le
I'm not gonna lie it's pretty unrealistic to still think Orlando has a decent shot. Once again we see a team to reliant on three pointers fall apart.
He does have a point. You shouldn't be talking about premature ejaculation when you had LeBron and the cavs nuts on your chin all year long talking about how they were gonna win a championship and were unstoppable. At least wait til that callus on your chin wears off before you start talking about OTHER peoples premature ejaculation.
Word I was lookin for was knee jerk. big DEAL if I got a prediction wrong
series isn't over. magic are a schizo team. reason they lost by 25 tonight is "sorta" the same reason they fell behind by 20+ twice to Cavs, blew 18 pt lead v Sixers, blew 14 pt lead v Celtics, almost blew 28 pt lead v Celtics, etc I think it'll cost them this series along with unfavorable matchups but here we have Dr House who thought lakers would lose to nugs, then claimed anti-jinx, talking about next years finals as if this years finals are already decided.
its just KNEE jerkage dammit.
as for my rooting preference i am indifferent although i would be happy for 2006 NBA champions powell/mbenga if they get their 2nd ring.
It's one thing to make a prediction and then there's you, fellating Lebron as a true witness all season like his was permanently wedged in your throat.
Someone should compile all the sucking you did and archive it into one thread.
2003, 2004, and now, 2009. The years Hedo completely shrinks vs LA.
I dont care how many 3's the Magic made or missed. That isnt going to cut it against a team like the Lakers. If Howard continues to struggle and if Hedo/Lewis etc cant drive to the basket, Orlando is ed. You arent going to beat LA by shooting three pointers regardless of if you are open or not. You better have success at driving to the hoop against LA, or you arent beating them 4 times.
as much as i dislike the Lakers i do get a small consolation in watching bag Van Gundy meltdown when he's denied a ring.
The whole game felt like it was another regular season game on a Saturday afternoon on ABC.
It was without any excitement.
Have you seen ABC try to do back stories on the Magic? Nope.
There's not a player on the Magic roster that's appeared in an NBA finals contest and it showed.
Game 2 will be much closer. Historically, teams that play poorly come out and play much much better in the next game.
The Magic will not repeat 29% shooting coupled with just one Dwight Howard basket in game 2.
you're right...it's a conspiracy. blame stern and the refs for the Magic shooting 29% from the field while getting 11 more FTAs and getting blown out by 25...yup, it's a conspiracy.
you gotta be the dumbest m'fer on these boards
The Magic will not play as badly as they did in Game 1.
However, their chances are not good to make this much of a series because they simply don't match up well with the Lakers. None of the matchup advantages they could exploit against Cleveland are available in this series.
The hockey game was vastly more entertaining.
This series is already starting to look like the 02 Finals.
IMO this series is still gonna be marginally compe ive. There was a stretch in the 3rd where Orlando just fell completly apart, but other than that they were right in the game. They didn't look overmatched, i think they underestimated Bryant, not expecting him to catch fire.
All championship teams have one thing in common and that is that they play defense when it matters, whoever plays better defense will always win. The Magic didn't play any but they can still turn it around, this series is not over.
This whole board has a problem with premature ejaculation.
Yup...that series was basically over as soon as it started...I was happy the Spurs won the le, but it was way too easy. I didn't even bother buying a shirt.
Unless Orlando comes out in Game 2 and proves that Game 1 was a fluke, this series is over. It's likely the Lakers will sweep. I'm not happy about it, but it is what it is.![]()
Yeah, the 2005 Finals was EPIC...one of the best Finals ever...but this one feels more like 2007 so far...a total mismatch. We'll see what happens in Game 2.
