Ya I really don't like him out there on the floor other than giving Sessions a break. He shouldn't be getting more than like 10-15 minutes a game lol. Plus he is now off to a horrid start in the postseason.

On the other hand, maybe Brown has followed your train of thought Vindic and wants to get some more games for MWP.


If he's actually following that train of thought he'd be smart about it and not play Kobe Bryant for 40 minutes.

I didn't think they would either. But to see a potential come back like that squandered like that because Kobe was at the three all game long and Andre Miller had pretty much full freedom to go wherever he wanted was extremely frustrating. I'd have been more satisfied just letting Denver run away with it than to see the game end because of Mike Brown's stubborn refusal to make substitutions.

Finally I'm getting a chance to watch an entire Orlando Magic playoff game.
1) They are massively outsized.
2) Hedo cannot guard Granger for crap. But who can?
3) They aren't getting those nice kickouts for the three like you get when Howard is playing
4) They are incredibly short handed, and Nelson is in foul trouble already.
5) THe bench is garbage. Chris Duhon? Come on, at least give Ish Smith a chance (Duhon didn't even get the ball over the half court line in 8 seconds because of pressure)
Meh :/ It sucks that Howard is out. His presence is too great for them to not have him. Big Baby is good, but he's only what, 6'9 at most?

No Howard, no kickouts. No offense. GG. honestly looking at this playoff series Ryan Anderson, wouldnt be winning any awards if it wasnt for Howard (his prima dona issues aside.) Hed be a slightly better Steve Novak.

Yeah exactly. The Magic rely on 3's, but they are set 3's, not pull ups. It's hard to pick and pop a 3. Unless you're Ray Allen with such a beautiful shot.
Man, 2 seconds on the clock and indiana hits a 3

since when does ray just randomly pop a three? he moves without the ball to get open.....and yes the whole magic offense relied on dwight, so of course it will look stagnant in the playoffs.

Holcan is right though. Allen is best known for being great at moving through screens to make himself open for a catch and shoot. That's always been his game, and one of the best at it not really "pick and pop".
