If I were a Cavs fan I wouldn't feel too bad about this loss. It was bound to happen. Cavs in 6 still I think. Really CLUTCH shooting by the Magic.

That's the main thing to take from that game.

The Magic usually just roll over and die in the playoffs without much of a fight.

To be down 15 at the half, and to close it out in the manner they did, this is the 1st time I feel they are TRULY legit, kinda liked they passed a big test tonight.

I wouldn't be really threatened if I were a Cavs fan, unless the Magic went up 2-0, or 3-1.

LeBron would have been making the right play passing to West IF it was any other time than it just so happened to be.

But with one possession left, he HAS to take that shot or get to the line. Jerry West was dead right...LeBron is the better player, but give me Kobe in the 4th any day. You just know that he's going to get a good look or get to the line with the game in the balance. LeBron will learn, but he's not there yet.

That said, I don't blame him. A championship team has to make those kinds of shots, and West just missed it. They'll get more shots like that, and if they're going to win a ring, they'll make 'em. (Thanks, captain obvious)

Even MJ didn't take THAT shot EVERY time.

And yet somehow in the final 2 minutes of close games, and in that exact situation basically, lebron has statistically been better than Kobe. Somehow, lol.

I agree for the most part, but ive seen it before and i definitely saw it tonight, when lebron went to the hole in the third and dwight put him on his arse, he stopped going hard and started shooting j's, he starting hesitating. Dont get me wrong, im a huge lebron fan but that was glaring to me and he seemed to dissapear when adversity showed up.
