NBA Finals

yeah it's doable but still you don't let a game like that get away. they were that close. once they went into OT you kind of knew where this was going.

Heckuva game last night! I enjoyed it very much!

After the HORRID start last night, it turned into a good game. TERRIBLE CALLS on BOTH sides. How many offensive 3 second calls are you going to call? Got interesting finally in the 3rd quarter and had a good finish. Although with all of the bad calls, 2 HUGE and obvious calls were missed. The first was Dwight's OBVIOUS goaltend on Pau's dunk in the first quarter, and the 2nd being on the last play in regulation on Pau's goaltend. I didn't mind the last one not being called, but the officiating was bad for both teams.

Too funny...

Today, the Orlando Sentinel published a "guide" on how to be a fan of the team. This is for all the new found love for the bandwagon Orlando Magic fans. LMAO!!!

New to the Orlando Magic bandwagon? Here's a guide for new fans -- OrlandoSentinel.com

Living in Orlando, all of these bandwagon Magic fans are really pissing me off. All of a sudden cars have Magic flags on them. Where were your flags for the past 20 years

Miami did it in 2006. Salsa can tell you about it.

AND they looked alot worse than Orlando did. AND in Game 3, the HEAT were down 14 with 5 minutes left in the game. And the Wade outscored the rest of the MAVS something like 18-3 to win the game and the somewhat change the momentum.

More than likely, those BANDWAGON fans did not LIVE in Orlando 20 years ago.

In all fairness, what were they going to bring them out for the last few years? Another knockout at the hands of the Piston's?

you could also say that dallas ain't the lakers either lakers have more talent than that dallas team did a few years ago. i'm not saying the magic can't do it but it doesn't look good. when you get kobe,gasol and lamar going they are unstoppable.

Looks like all those bandwagon fans will be partying tonight. Orlando wins their first NBA finals game.

hard to believe a team can shoot 63% and only win by 4. Unless the opposing team had more shots. Makes no difference, the Magic came back after getting their a$$e$$ handed to them in game one and a heartbreaking loss in game 2.

That's the scary thing for Orlando. Is this what it takes to win a game? Try shooting 63% again. And the Magic's 63% is not exactly high percentage shots. These guys live on the perimiter.

Orlando 108 - Lakers 104
Lakers lead series 2-1

THAT is their game all year. They are the only team that has stuck to what got them there. On a side note, I think every time they bring in Jamier Nelson, he completely kills the chemistry/flow that the Magic have created with Rafer Alston. Nelson tries too much, too soon, too fast and forces the issues way too many times.

Looks like it's NBA, the musical... with Howard singing to the ball.

I agree 100%. Big mistake by Van Gundy allowing him to play in this series.

Did Kobe "throw" the game?

I do not know...I did not watch the game. However, L.A. Sports Radio call in shows are loaded with accusations that Kobe "threw" the game last night.

Any thoughts here?

That's a very strong accusation. What are they basing it on?

Why, because he missed some late free throws?? I doubt it.
