Orlando and Atlanta - The forgotten series

[LiLharvard]

Is it going to game 7? Why is everyone so convinced Magic will take the hawks tonight... I thought hawks have been dominating this one man show (Dwightando Magic) What are your prospective thoughts? Can the magic break hearts in Atlanta or is Dwight and his band of 3pt gunners getting their fishing rods ready.

[Magic Vinsanity]

No its not going to 7. Orlando just had a great game while the Hawks had a lousy one. Orlando are too inconsistant to do it again tonight, let alone 2 more times and win the series.

ATL will close out the Magic and move on to the next round, no doubt about it.

[Pursuer]

I don't see why are you having no doubts about it. Shooters run hot and cold, and you can never predicted their consistency. Who the hell predicted Rashard Lewis destroying the Cavs in '09? I really don't see a reason why it's an obvious win for Atlanta. That team's as inconsistent as any other. How can you trust Jamal Crawford and Joe Johnson?

I'm having no doubts about it because I've watched every single Orlando game all year and you can telegraph how they are going to perform at times. I expect them to lose this series and I dont have any doubts about it. If they win, I'd be shocked. Nobody has been as up and down as Orlando this year and ATL seem to have match up nightmares for the Magic.

[Faberg]

I want this series to go to a Game 7. Bulls-Magic is more appealing than Bulls-Hawks.

Bulls will win easily versus the Hawks.

[coin24]

This is the worst series of the first round..

Im trying not to offend atlanta fans but they are so shit to watch. The magic arent much better though imo... Whoever wins is going to get dominated by the bulls i think so not like it really matters.
Orlando without the 3 ball= Dwight can have 40+ and they still get pumped...

They are both so inconsistent but I think the magic take game6, I dont think id put money on that though:oldlol:

[HylianNightmare]

who says the magic are winning tonight?:oldlol:

the magic had a good all around game and the hawks struggled i expect a hawks beatdown tonight

[rodman91]

Hedo gonna have nice game this time.

[tontoz]

Both teams are playing poorly and deserve to lose. Someone has to win though. It has been pretty hard to watch. Dumb play on both sides.

[ThaSwagg3r]

It is only forgotten because almost every game has been on NBATV. Hawks should close out in Game 6, if it goes to Game 7, then Orlando is going to win the series.

[hawkfan]

Go Hawks go!

[Clutch]

It is only forgotten because almost every game has been on NBATV. Hawks should close out in Game 6, if it goes to Game 7, then Orlando is going to win the series.
Hawks were up by 3-1.
No way Orlando could play 3 games in a row without chocking :lol

I think the Hawks will advance to the 2nd round.

[D12"Magic"]

Hawks will have a mental breakdown and JJ will be chucking. :D
Magic fans think positive.

[hoopslife]

The last 10 times a team losing 3-1 won big in game 5 that team then went on to lose game six 9 out of the 10 times. Pretty ominous for Orlando:

2010 East Finals: Magic win Game 5, 113-92, lose to Celtics Game 6, 96-84.
2010 West First Round: Mavs win Game 5, 103-81, lose to Spurs in Game 6, 97-87.
2010 West First Round: Nuggets win Game 5, 116-104, lose to Jazz in Game 6, 112-104.

2007 East Semifinals: Bulls win Game 5, 108-92, lose to Pistons in Game 6, 95-85.
2006 East FInals: Pistons win Game 5, 91-78, lose to Heat in Game 6, 95-78.

Hey, at least it's Atlanta that Orlando is up against. If any team could screw this up, it's the Hawks!

This series has been f*cking great. SMH @ people calling it the worst of the first round.

[Magic Vinsanity]

This series has been f*cking great. SMH @ people calling it the worst of the first round.Of course its been great for you, you're a Hawks fan! For Orlando fans and anybody who isnt a fan of either team, this series has been a boring, messy load of dog sh*t!

+1

ATL get out to early leads and then don't score for 4-5 minutes stetches, other than isolation jumpers or pick and roll jumpers or long 3bombs. They hardly drive to score.

Orlando either pounds the ball to Dwight and he gets hacked and/or scores. Or runs a series or pick and rolls which ends up with a big man taking a long jumper or one of the ball handlers taking an off balanced shot.

Why does JSmoove routinely want to switch onto Howard? Quit it, he is killing you, this aint AAU anymore hommie, Dwight will score 10x out of 10, that shit aint valiant, its 'tarded

This is not the forgotten series, it is the most boring series.

It was the same story two years ago in the first round against Miami. The series went 7 games and completely sucked.

How does ATL have so many athletes yet they cannot put together a string of exciting ball? Even their 3 balls don't give off any excitement

[hawksdogsbraves]

I'm pretty worried after the way we played on Thursday

[Orlando Magic]

To the "Magic fans" in this thread giving up on the Magic and expecting the Hawks to beat us down, you're stupid.

Why are you stupid?

They lost game 4 by 3 points. 3 ****ing points. They shot 2 for 23 from 3 point range. 2 for ****ing 23. All they have to do is hit 4 of 23 and they win the game. 4 of 23 is absolutely ****ing terrible, and it would have won them the game.

They lost game 3 by 5 points. 5 ****ing points. They shot 8 for 28 from 3 point range. 8 for ****ing 28. All they have to do is hit 10 of 28 and they win the game. 10 of 28 is absolutely ****ing terrible, and it would have won them the game.

What are the chances that they have another 2 games sucking complete ass from 3? I'd say slim to none. The key for the Magic will be not going to Dwight Howard on every single play, because no matter how good he is as an individual on offense, the entire team stagnates when he dominates the ball because of Stan's lack of offensive game plan.

The Magic will win the last 2 games unless Stan continues to be an idiot and continues to go to Dwight all the time. The Magic are a better team when Dwight is not the primary option on offense.

Well seeing as they routinely have games of 3-20+ shooting 3s, i'd say the magic are a good chance of losing the series...:lol
Theyve been the same all season, one night they look awesome, the next game they are all bricking 3s and look like trash...

[RUCKER]

Yeh why does Crawford always lick his fingers? I bet no one wants to foul him because of that shit.


Have you not ever played Basketball in your life? It gives you touch on your shot you nerd.. That's why you see NFL QB's licking their fingers before going for the snap. It gives them touch on their passes.

So don't worry about it. You aren't an athlete you wouldn't know the advantages it gives you. Can't stand these kids that start questioning pro athlete's actions.

My source told me Jameer is going to see rose on a 55" Sony Bravia 3D.

[04mzwach]

hey Howard where is your smile now, :lol
Dwight has grown a lot this year. His game has grown and himself as a person. This is the first season where I look at Dwight and actually see a man and not a kid anymore. He doesn't look like a kid and it seems like he smiles a lot less than he used to. Next year is going to be a hell of a season. (if there is one)

[WBynumToTheHole]

did anybody catch what svg said in the presser? "at times we defended too well" haha

[bagelred]

Let me contribute a thought.....first time for everything.:lol

It's completely EMBARRASSING for the NBA to use local announcers for these playoff games, especially a Game 6. Just embarrassing. What if there's an amazing game ending play? You have some biased local yokel calling it? REEEEEEEEDiculous.

[Micku]

Well, that was a bit surprising. I didn't think the Hawks would be able to beat the Magic. First upset in these playoffs so far I think. D.Howard probably isn't happy at all, and he might get out of there unless they can land someone big, which isn't going to happen methinks. It was a good series though.

Magic vs Bulls sounds more interesting than Hawks vs Bulls. Regardless, I hope the Hawks vs Bulls have an entertaining series.

[LiLharvard]

The last 10 times a team losing 3-1 won big in game 5 that team then went on to lose game six 9 out of the 10 times. Pretty ominous for Orlando:

2010 West First Round: Mavs win Game 5, 103-81, lose to Spurs in Game 6, 97-87.

Magic's trades during the season ultimately failed. Turk started off hot, but ended up remind Raptors and Suns fans of how bad he was. I can't see any more teams taking his contract.

Arenas didn't too much, and Richardson kind of struggled, especially in the playoffs.

Magic will have to do something drastic in order keep Dwight. Getting a good PG would be a nice start.

What a horrible match that was, brainfart on either side... the loser is determined by who's sucking more :facepalm:
