Celtics' Green can't match Magic Blue

The Celtics are the defending champs and last night they turned into the the defending chumps. The Celtics put up a fight but it turned out to be be a waste of talent and strength. The Magic took care of business last night but it would've better if they beat the Celtics earlier in the series. But they did their thing last night and it's good that they can move forward and face the Cavs.



The Celtics were held to just 39 percent shooting in the entire game. They were only able to hit 25 percent of their 3 pointers and they lost by 19 points. The Celtics only had 10 turnovers and they had 17 fast break points but the lack of made shots caused them to lose. Their 30 points in the paint was respectable considering the Defensive Player of the year was in the paint waiting to swat anything coming his way.



The Magic had a much better night and 51 percent field goal shooting night and the 3 pointers were falling. 61 percent of them to be exact. The Magic had a monster 4th quarter which allowed them to seal the deal. Dwight Howard who hasn't had a really good game since the 1st round. He only had 12 points but he had 16 rebounds and he had 5 blocks. I believe if Dwight can learn to knock down the close hook shots he takes and he learns to use his strength to get to the rim and convert his plays he can be the best player in the league. His defensive prowess his unmatched and if he becomes a true offensive threat he'll become the next Shaquille O'Neal.

The man of the night was Hedo Turkoglu, he was in the zone last night. He was 9 of 12 from the field and 4 of 5 from 3 point range. This is expected from a guy who usually hits his shots when called upon. But what we all didn't expect was for him to drop 12 assists on the unexpecting Celtics. When you look at the Magic guards and forwards you don't expect Hedo Turkoglu to have a 12 assist night.

The Magic finally put this series to rest and it's about time. But now they face an bigger task, trying to end the Cavaliers playoff massacre. Only time will tell if the Magic can do it all over again and pull off the upset.
