May 27, 200917 yr It's a bird, it's a plane, no it's Superman! :lol: Anyone still think the Magic aren't legit? Is LeBron hurt? I seem to recall being told the only way the Magic had a chance was if LeBron went down...:idunno:
May 27, 200917 yr I'm shocked at the 3-1 lead for Orlando, wow. I DID NOT see this coming at all. I'm still dumb enough to believe the Lebrons' still have a chance to pull it out, even though winning 3 in a row in this situation is tough. Wow, nice job by Orlando.
May 27, 200917 yr How about Mo Williams running his big mouth about winning when he is playing like garbage all playoffs.
May 27, 200917 yr I didn't even get to watch the 2nd half because of the stupid electric, but I'm still too pumped to sleep!!
May 27, 200917 yr I didn't even get to watch the 2nd half because of the stupid electric, but I'm still too pumped to sleep!! I take it you're a big Magic guy?
May 27, 200917 yr I take it you're a big Magic guy? More a big Dwight Howard guy. I don't particularly have a favorite NBA team, so I just root for my favorite players teams, so that would be Orlando and New Orleans (CP3). I also hate the Cavs, so it's pretty easy for me to root for the Magic.

You've got me both ways right now though UKMF, my favorite player is KG and my second favorite is LBJ :isurrender:
May 27, 200917 yr You can be assured that Cleveland will get every call in Game Five because David Stern wants the series drawn out another game
May 27, 200917 yr I was shocked to see Orlando pull that out. The ref's tried to give it to Clevland and they still couldn't pull it off. That foul with .5 seconds left was horrible. No way that was a foul. Then Howard got fouled on the inbound play and got nothing for it. The ref's, in both series, have been horrible. I am shocked to see Clevland down 3-1. I was hoping for an LA/Clevland final, and it is looking like it might not happen for either team. Kind of shocking really. Denver looks like they might be the best team in it.

This gets back again to my frustration with all the anticipatory calls, especially for stars in the league, unless you are a big man and you can get pounded on all day long. For the record, both should have been no calls, imo.

May 27, 200917 yr :thumb: That call LeBron got is going to be called every time at the end of the game though. And that is the frustrating component of NBA referees. You always hear that refs will "let them play", but it is obviously not the case here. And that is fine if they want to make the call, but I can not see if that is called for one star, something of similar nature is not called on the other end with Howard. People say Howard gets preferential treatment, but historically speaking, guys down low get a lot less calls. Shaq gets mauled during games and often times nothing is called.

Alot of contact on that play, but it was Howard who fouled if anyone did. He grabbed Varajao's arm and then pushed his other shoulder down to try to get the ball. A no call was the only way to go, IMO. But Varajao didn't foul, he had his arms straight up. :thumb: That call LeBron got is going to be called every time at the end of the game though. True. Contact was made. Stars get those calls at the end of games though. And that is the frustrating component of NBA referees.

People say Howard gets preferential treatment, but historically speaking, guys down low get a lot less calls. Shaq gets mauled during games and often times nothing is called. Shaq got mauled alot, but he also got away with calls. Howard doesn't really get fouled like Shaq did. And when he does it's called. Big difference in the size and strength of a Shaq in his prime and D Howard as strange as that is to say. Cavs are done, most likely. You cannot make one player try to win you a series. You would think averaging 42, 7 and 7 in a series would be enough to win, but it's not. Mo Williams should feel like a fool. A win in game 5 and it's possible, but someone not named LeBron has to hit some shots.

I seem to recall being told the only way the Magic had a chance was if LeBron went down...:idunno: No I really don't think they are. They have a great matchup advantage on the Cavs, I think the Nuggets or Lakers will expose them. I think what this series has proved is that the Cavs aren't legit besides LeBron. I don't think the Magic would have gotten past a healthy Celtics team.
