If they still had Posey, KG, Powe, they'd win the title this year. Without them, they will still reach the ECFs. That's some true testinomy for Ainge's work to assemble such a group. And aside from the blunder with JoeJohnson, all his draft picks panned out well in some ways. Perkins, Rondo, Jefferson, Davis, Powe, Delonte West, Tony Allen

In fact, if they had picked Joe Smith instead of Moore, they'd be competitve with Cavs even without KG.

Wow. Orlando should have already had this series won. A buzzer beater by Big Baby Davis and now a major 4th quarter choke job. It almost looks like I'm watching the Suns.

You gotta win the close games at home and you gotta protect double digit leads in the 4th quarter. The Magic had this series and gave it away. I wouldn't be surprised to see Boston close it out in game 6, but definitely the Celtics will roll them in game 7 at home. Too bad.

The Magic could use another shooting guard like JRich if they don't win it all.

I doubt they'll be able to keep Hedo, let along add another SG/SF, thanks to that horrible contract they gave Lewis. :sad:

Yep, this is probably their best chance. Lewis's contract simply won't permit them to be an elite team down the road unless they become massive luxury tax payers.
