Folks how does a 16 point Magic win tonight sound ? Wouldn't that be a nice way to finish off this series ? Also, this would be nice so O-Magic can sit back and relax during the fourth quarter instead of unleashing a profanity laced tirade at his tv set as he sees a flopping Raptor or a Hedo turnover.

Phew - during the 3rd period I was all for trading Nelson and most of the rest except Howard and Bogans as they appeared lost, sluggish, defeated and discombobulated!!
What a great comeback in the 4th period. Nelson was inspired, Howard Turk and Lewis also. Huge credit goes to Jameer for winning this game for us.
If we did not win this game I think this series might have gone the wrong way.

I'm actually worried for the first time in the series... Jim predicting a 16 point Magic win???
I hope this is only cause you're a good person worried for the good health of O-Magic, but in your mind you're thinking that game 7 is coming....

Welcome to Orlando, and yes I would love to play you guys. Lewis vs Garnett, Hedo vs Pierce, Rondo vs Nelson, Howard, Allen, etc. what a great series it would be. I think of all the teams in the NBA we are one of your toughest matchups. Good luck to you guys.

Nice win Magic although watching this can't be good for me, I totally stress out. My poor dog is totally freaked out when I watch the games..LOL
Hedo was killing me in the first 4 minutes of the 3rd quarter. OMG, I was screaming at him especially after the interview with SVG where he said we needed to take better care of the ball. It was like 4 or 5 turnovers in a row.
Also, remember when Dwight was called for three seconds when Bogans threw the ball in the paint that was tipped. I'm like, WHAT! Since I was watching in on the DVR I went back two or three times and he was in the paint for 2 seconds when he got the ball. The refs were dieing to make a three second call on Dwight. Bad call, but for the most part, best officiated game so far.
Also, I was bitching and moaning about Jameers play to my Dad on the phone between the 3rd and 4th quarter. After the game I called my Dad back and said I take back everything bad I said about him. LOL. Way to go Jameer! Way to step up in the final quarter and help us scrap out a win!
Rashard was huge for us again tonight! I hate when Calderon holds up his three finger when he makes a 3.....although I would love the Magic to sign him in off-season!
Man, it certainly was nice to send the Raptors fans home with a loss because they were obnoxious...
We need to be loud at the O-rena on Monday and send the Canucks back to Canada for their summer vacation....
GO MAGIC!

<quoted text>Luke yes I am (hoping) for a Magic win by 16 tonight. Fear not. I am not predicting that. I just thought it would be nice for all of us Magic fans to be able to kick back and relax in the fourth quarter instead of falling off the edge of our seats.
GO MAGIC !!!
