Yep, and the Lakers tied it...
Oh well, at least they gave Big Shot Hedo enough time to maybe respond.

I'm still trying to figure out what that inbound play was supposed to be.

The Magic are going to be kicking themselves if they go on to blow this in OT.

Free Throws and Turnovers...really, Orlando doesn't really deserve the win with those two big negatives in their game tonight.

My word, Howard is channeling the spirit of Nick Anderson here.

Fish was very, very, very clutch in the 4th and OT.
I think Orlando shows some pride, but this is done when it heads back for Game 6.

Amazing...Orlando was within seconds of being up 3-1 in two games....Big time chokes...not as bad as the Mavs/Miami, but big time....I hate the thought of the Lakers winning the championship again...but there's no doubt now that they won't win...

How many times in the 4th and OT did Orlando come out of a timeout and have set plays and they BARELY get the ball in before the 5 second violation and they have a shot that really doesn't seem like it should've been what was called?
Turnovers, tons of missed free throws, not closing out on a shooter when you're up 3 with 11 seconds to go. There were just way too many mistakes. The Magic don't have the poise necessary to win a series vs a team like the Lakers in the Finals...plain and simple.

Let's be real here, L.A. got lucky on those fluke threes by Ariza and Fish in the last 2 min. But I guess a wise man once said....

I can't believe DJ Mbenga is going to win a ring before Dirk Nowitzki...

Dwight Howard seemed entirely too non-chalant in the after game interviews. He didn't really seem that bothered by missing the fts, pointing to the other things he did well. How you can't be bothered by missing free points to help put your team down 3-1 in the finals against the Lakers is pretty beyond me. I'm not saying the guy has to carry a noose out there, but jesus show some heart and passion for the game.
There is absolutely 130% no excuse whatsoever to miss a free throw. None. Not on a 5th grade level and not in the NBA.

Dwight Howard is not a very good offensive basketball player.

What's up with the missed call on Kobe...Elbow to the face, isn't there a rule that mandates at least a one game suspension?

If kobe pulls out a knife, and shanks someone, there is a slight chance a foul might be called against him.

Magic will be kicking themselves for a long time.
Missed layup in LA, missed ft's and turnovers in game 4. Not sure why SVG went with Nelson over Alston late in the game and OT either. Gasol, Mbenga, and Powell will all get rings before Dirk. Not right.

It'll be interesting to see what Ariza stays for because he's going to get so many offers this summer but appears determined to stay in LA.

Sasha and Walton...probably could've found cheaper help than bringing them back at the price they did.

Ugh...I do not want Kobe to win another ring...and let the Kobe riding begin....
(Edit) He is a a hall of famer, but I just don't like him or his personality. I can have opinions right? Last edited by RareMilk; 06-14-2009 at 10:59 AM. |

I wonder if there will be any carry over tonight from that Pietrus foul on Gasol. This article it makes it seem like there won't be, but you never know.

I almost choked on my own saliva when Magic claimed that Pau is the 2nd best big man in the NBA.

What do you expect, in a building called Amway Arena? Amway is a scam.
