Finishing the night with a huge 21 points and 16 rebounds, Antonio once again showed his priceless worth to a team that […]

“Joe [Dumars] and I will talk about it,” Flip Saunders said.

Jameer Nelson: ‘I Didn’t Guarantee a Win’

May 15th, 2008 · No Comments

“I didn’t guarantee a win,” [Nelson] said. “I didn’t say, ‘we’re going to …’ I said ‘we have to go win, we’re going to come get this win.’ And the media took it out of proportion or whatever they want to do. The media always wants a story. I mean, I really don’t care what […]

The Orlando Sentinel and Magic fans have no class

May 12th, 2008 · 1 Comment

If this has offended any of the Magic fans that DO have class, I apologize in advance. If you see these guys walking around, tell them they’re making all of you look bad.
After seeing this debacle from a “professional” newspaper’s website, I can officially state that the Orlando Sentinel has no class either.
All photos are […]

No Chauncey? No Problem!

May 11th, 2008 · No Comments

 
All courtesy a 15-0 run and a clutch shot from Mr. Prince.
And apparently, the Magic are already counting themselves out of this series.
Why? Because of the “blame game” runaround they gave after the game. It was an Orlando contest to see who could take the most blame, and I’m not too sure I can declare […]

ORL: 111, DET: 86 - And The Rain Did Fall

May 8th, 2008 · No Comments

 
 “Rashard! We’re not gonna get swept! Piggyback ride!”
Thus, the attitude after a Game 3 win over the Detroit Pistons.
First off, let me start by saying that Hedo Turkoglu and Rashard Lewis have some of the poorest shot selection that I’ve ever seen in the NBA. Unfortunately, they were falling again.
Don’t chalk this up as a […]

DET: 100, ORL: 93 - Fading Magic

May 6th, 2008 · 1 Comment

Ahh, the playoffs are in the air and we already have postseason “controversy” running amok.
Was Chauncey’s 3-pointer with 4.8 seconds left in the 3rd in time? Eventually it was deemed no, but unofficially. Considering the officials on the court can’t use instant replay for time-related issues, Chauncey was awared the 3-ball and the Pistons took […]
