Rasheed causes matchup problems for lots of teams, but especially Orlando with 2 small forwards and no power forward. Again, the Magic always run with Dwight and 4 three point shooters, and the Magic cannot afford to allow Sheed to take Dwight out to the 3 point line and leave the paint wide open.
Look for Sheed to have some big numbers offensively. Look to see if the Detroit guards are shooting well from outside, and look to see if Sheed is finding the open Detroit bigs when Dwight comes over from the weak side to block his shot.

On the other side of the mismatch, remember either Sheed or McDeyes is going to have to stay in front of, and stay out on either Hedo or Rashard.

the rumor is Maxiell is starting so he will probably check Turkoglu and Tayshaun will get Rashard is what I'm guessing.

We'll see if Hedo leaves the Detroit bigs standing around like a pillar of salt like the Toronto bigs.

Jameer Nelson needs to play his best ball in order for the Magic to win the series. 'Shards going to have to step up as well. Dwight needs to be Dwight and so does Hedo.
Bogans and the bench need to provide some energy and hit some threes.

Generally, anything Nelson contributes aside from getting the ball up the court without turning it over is a bonus.
But yeah, the Magic three point shooting has to get back to normal for Orlando to advance. Remember, the Magic beat Toronto 4-1 on 32% three point shooting against the second worst perimeter defense in the NBA, and shot 39% the rest of the season.

I think these are around 90-100 point games each...with the team that reaches 100 points winning that game. Defensive games...but with a good amount of scoring none the less.
The 100 point mark, may seem to favor Orlando to some people...but it's well within the Pistons range also.
Should be a very good series IMO.

Looks like this season the Pistons have scored one hundred 35 times out of 82.
The magic have failed to score one hundred 24 times out of 82.
