Post-game thoughts on the Celtics beating Magic in 2010 East Conf Finals game 1

[BlackWhiteGreen]

He has the highest FG% in the league! For the second year in a row!!

You can say he is lacking an offensive repertoire, but you can't say his offense is lacking. The man can score. Efficiently, at that.

Perk was top 5 or so, and he's a terrible offensive player

Too bad you guys don't have Hedo anymore, dont see you coming back without him

LOL get back to me in 2 weeks.

LOL @ Magic fans defending Dwight. He's a great player, he's just not great offensively. He depends on 3 things:

Bullying smaller/weaker defenders and plowing through them for dunks
offensive putbacks
guard penetration allowing Howard easy finishes

He's just not a go-to low post guy with lots of post moves. This has been the story for the past 3 playoffs.

Series is going 6 or 7 games.

Perk was top 5 or so, and he's a terrible offensive player

Difference is, Perk usually takes under 10 shots per game, and JUST managed 10 ppg for the first time in his career.

What are you talking about? This was his first year leading the league in FG%. Anyways, Dwight does lack an offensive repetoire, because if he didn't he shouldn't have a problem scoring against Perkins, Sheed or Baby. Actually, he doesn't have that much of a problem with Baby but he does against Perk and Sheed.

My mistake, it was blks and rbs, I keep mixing it up with FG% and rbs.

The point remains the same, though.

I can't believe Orlando got it down to 2 playing like they did for 3 1/2 quarters.

This series is going to be a dog fight to the end.

if howard keeps actin' like a b*tch.. they're done. (no disrespect)

[VIP2000]

I still think the Magic will win the series (although in six or seven games), and hopefully today's game was because they were rusty. Dwight Howard and Rashard Lewis need to hit their shots.

I don't know if I'd say the same way you said it, but I do agree.

Dwight's gotta step it up. If he had even an OK game (or if Shard did), we would've been good.

[knickscity]

Rashard can't go 0 for 6 anymore either if they want to win.

They can't hit their first three in the third either.

It aint just Dwight.

i think i quoted you in another thread. no doubt, howard let us down..

True... I still love him though (no homo )

[LA_Showtime]

It'll be 2-2 heading back to Orlando. Whoever wins game 5 will finish this series off in 6.
