Orlando Vs Boston Game 2

        With the upset in Orlando the Celtics look to go up two games against the Orlando Magics and be a step closer to get back to the NBA Finals. The 2009 eastern conference championships the Orlando Magics kept the game close and showed that they didn't want to suffer a 2-0 deficit against the Celtics in the series. With Dwight Howard being the game's leader with thirty points the Magics had a great opportunity to win the game and tie the series one to one. The game was close through out all for quarters, when the fourth quarter came the celtics and the Magics were going back and forth taking the lead. However in the end the the Boston Celtics came out with another upset beating the Magics by three points 95-92 with 2008 Finals MVP leading the way with twenty eight points. Surprisingly Dwight Howard didn't lead the game in rebounds it was Kevin Garnett who had nine rebounds and Dwight Howard had only eight rebounds which is below his regular season and post season average. The game's leader in assists was the very much improved point guard of the Celtics Raja Rondo who had eight assists and the the Magic's assist leader was was Rashard Lewis who had only four assists. In my opinion the Magics need to pass the ball more because in the last two games their highest leader in passing had below five assists and they lose both games. They need to stop worrying about shooting so many three point shots and start driving to the hole and getting dirty in the paint area. My opinion is that when they see a defensive presence like Kevin Garnett in the paint they tend to shoot instead of driving and maybe getting fouled receiving to easy foul shots. So in conclusion the Magics need to win game three or else its pretty much the end because no one ever came back from a three zero deficit in NBA history.
