If Orlando want a chance at winning, honestly the bench will need to step up. The Cavs role players will be at home so they will be way better than what we’ve seen so someone on the bench will need to match their energy. Let’s not forget Strus, who was with Miami in game 7 against Boston last year, he understand what needs to happen. But Paolo and Franz might need an out of body experience for this one to be even close.

If this game was in Orlando, I would like our chances but on the road against a veteran team, where every home team has won their home games. If Orlando thought game 6 was crazy, game 7 is going to really shape them.
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.-John 3:16

Go Magic, Go Dwight, Go Vuc, Go Paolo, Go Keegan :)

Cavs win today at home.

Magic lost this series in game 5 when they could have closed it out. This young team isn’t good on the road. The numbers speak volumes.

Hope I’m wrong, but probably not.

Magic win in this one. We've been the better team in the first 6.

Quick look at the four factors through 6 games, and while the series may be tied, the overall numbers are all lead by the Magic.

Code: Select all

Four Factors      
            Pace   eFG%   TOV%   ORB%   FT/FGA   ORtg   PTS
CLE (3-3)   93.8   .493   13.5   19.0   .165   100.4   94.2
ORL (3-3)   93.8   .496   12.4   25.5   .219   108.0   101.3


I'm predicting a big game for Paolo, a surprise Magic win, followed by a Cavs meltdown and a bunch of mock trades Garland to the San Antone and Mitchell to LA.

Our bigs need to step up and put pressure on Mobley to get him in foul trouble.

Maybe the Magic can get a discount on Franz and Suggs extensions after that game.

Paolo did, but not in the second half.
