Magic @ Cavs - Game 1 Spoiler

Quagmire, totally agree with you. LBJ could not have done a lot more than score 49 points. His supporting cast needs to step up. Particularly on the defensive end. If the Cavs try to outgun the Magic they will be full of holes at the end of the series!

On the other side of the coin, I loved to see the sum of Orlando's parts overcome the King and his minions. Hedo played a great game - he is really coming along, having outplayed a worn out Pierce as well in the last series.

Lebron trying to carry the Cavs offence AND shut down Hedo's playmaking at the other end definitely took its toll - the best example was Hedo's 3 late in the game when Lebron dropped below the pick and couldn't recover in time to pressure the shot.

ESP, I'm not sure I'd call Lewis a star just yet - it takes more than a max contract. He has played well in these playoffs though, and made some clutch shots to close out today. So by the end of this series, he might have convinced me he is a star! LOL

Williams and West. Two reasons they lost, nothing to do with LBJ.

Cavs are just asking way too much of LeBron. They are getting outcoached too. Van 'ron jeremy' Gundy seems to teach his players too move both themselves and the ball, providing open looks. Cavs seem to stand around and watch LeBron. When he is resting, the reality of how weak a pg Williams is really comes to light.

Magic are a team that makes plays, while Cleveland relies on the King to make it happen.

Imagine if either LBJ or Howard had a star to play along with... The first team that signs a legit star to team with their current star....dynasty.

What would you do if you are Markovic's coach.

He has not played a minute in the preseason, has not attended any trainings yet the pigs are forcing him to honour his contract and play this season.

Would you want to have a player like that on your team let alone force him contractually to turn up.

Do the pigs think that he is going to play his best ball in the mental state he is in at the moment?

A mate here at work is a Magic fan, and I can tell you it was a dagger through his lol

Looks like The King took the "Your Cavs haven't been tested" pre-series talk personal... and here comes 50!

I can't believe Mo hit that prayer! That would have felt like a dagger in the heart for the Magic...

The Magic have no answers to LeBron - he is killing them.
