Im shocked at Hedo's last shot

the trade really ruined the magic.. If J-Rich did not react after the foul by Pachulia, the T' would not be called

WAW. Now I'm upset. I thought this series is going to be easy for the Magic.

dude it was worth watching the end of this game over the 2nd quarter of the laker game. i've seen crawford hit that at least 3 times in the past couple years, most recently against phoenix and this one was easily the best because you didnt see it coming. they were up by 1, and the magic NEEDED a stop. the only thing they could not allow is a 3. and Jamal just puts the dagger into em.

Again and again the same problems with DH12 Elbows is not good for himself and his Team

J-Rich may freak out once
Mon Apr 25, 2011 1:57 am
yah.. Howard should play like a veteran that knows what the situtation is.. and for J Rich he just slap the face of PAchulia because of the head but 3 times..

Hawks go up 3-1. The Magic were pretty fortunate to keep things so close the way they shot the ball in that one. Seems we're on the verge of an upset.

Not counting Orlando out with how bad Atlanta is and Orlando's shooting ability, but man...
Mon Apr 25, 2011 12:32 pm
wow another horrendous outing for the magic.... poor shooting bad shot selection and just a slow slow start..... hard to come back after playin a long game of catch up.... all i have to say again.... i didnt like the trade and i still dont.... hedo just flat out sucks!!!!!!! never liked the guy and never will.... Props to gilbert for the strong game he had... im starting to finally see flashes of his skills....
Mon Apr 25, 2011 1:12 pm
yah Hedo's shots selection really sucks!! It should be Arenas who knocking down his shots tonight.. me too really don't like the trade it worsen the rotation and its hard for Stan

now the magic are in big trouble
Mon Apr 25, 2011 1:25 pm
I was able to see the whole game and I was really happy Arenas went out and played like that
Mon Apr 25, 2011 1:28 pm
The way things are going with the Magic I see Dwight leaving them.

No doubt. I see him joining the Nets.

great combo for him is CP3

I told my friend before the playoffs started that the Magic are a lot weaker this year, Otis Smith is a complete idiot for giving up two of his best 3pt shooters (Lewis and VC) and his back up center (Gortat) for a pretty much washed up star who doesn't fit the system (Arenas), a pretty much same player in SG (J-Rich) and an overrated player (Hedu).
Last year they went all the way to the ECF with the players prior to the trades, now they will probably be out in the first round.. all because of the Miami Heat panic..
As all VC fans, despite my love for Dwight, I will happily gloat on this.

It sure was a risky trade. Getting rid of a very solid center was a bummer for sure. Lewis(he was/is suffering from injury too) was useless with heavy contract so he had to be gone, but the Magic are in worse situation now with Hedo and Arenas' fatty contracts. Doubling the trouble.
I wonder what Hedo has left to say. The fucker pretty blamed the Raptors for his bad season in Toronto while he was able to do nothing he was brought for. Can't believe the Magic took him back...

The funniest thing is that some people actually think Hedo is a better player than Vince. I mean for real, even I can throw alley-hoops to Dwight a couple of times a game.
Just look at Hedo's stats compared to Vince and tell me he's not overrated:
Vince (ORL) 30.2 mpg 15.1 ppg 4.1 rpg 2.9 apg vs Hedo (ORL) 33.9 mpg 11.4 ppg 4.6 rpg 5.1 apg
Vince (PHO) 27.2 mpg 13.5 ppg 3.6 rpg 1.6 apg vs Hedo (PHO) 25.2 mpg 9.5 ppg 4.0 rpg 2.3 apg
and in the playoffs:
Vince (ORL 09-10) 15.5 ppg 4.2 rpg 2.3 apg vs Hedo (ORL 10-11) 7.8 ppg 4.0 rpg 4.0 apg
Vince kept his season averages, while Hedo played a lot worse. Most important, with VC they lost the ECF series against a tough Boston crew, with Hedo they're about to lose in the 1st round to the underdog Hawks.

While the trade doesn't look all that great for Orlando at this point, I'm not sure they'd be doing much better if they'd stayed pat. Lewis for example hasn't exactly had a much better year than Arenas, about the best you can say is that his contract expires a year earlier than Arenas' deal. Giving up Gortat was probably the worst part of the two trades they made.

@yosifun Definitely VC is much better and athletics. But what does all that, if VC more or less a solo entertainer is

Why he did not want to stay in Orlando
Edit: Basketball is a team game and not a single entertainment and look at LeBron, this guy is not a EgoShooterPlayer

Hedo had a surprisingly good season with Orlando this year, playing arguably his most efficient ball since his MIP season. It's too bad he and the Magic shat the bed and can't hit open threes.

Magic in 7.
So much for my prediction.
Sucks for the Magic to face the 4th best team in defending 3 pointers (regular season).
1) Bulls, 2) Bucks, 3) Lakers, 5) Celtics, 6) Sixers, 7) Dallas, 8) Den, 9) Heat

I agree...don´t forget 2009 before the MIP
It is very difficult for the Magic-Team, but I still have some hope in Orlando
Go Magic Go
