Magic have no reason to hang their heads. They had a tremendous run throughout the playoffs beating the defending champs in the Celtics and this year’s heavy favorites (Editor’s note: Cleveland Cavaliers) to compete for a championship this year. Lack of experience on the big stage hurt them, turnover issue and inconsistent point guard play did them in as well. Hedo Turkoglu must be signed in the off season if he decides to become a free agent this off season. Magic also need to sign a legit power forward to help Dwight Howard on the boards. As good as Howard is, he must refine his post up game and work on free throw shooting so he can really become a dominant force late in the games. I will cut him some slack, he is only 23 years old. Magic are a young team and a better team when Jameer Nelson is healthy. It will be interesting next year:  does point guard Rafer Alston want to play a back-up role for a championship contending team or a staring role on a lesser caliber team?

Lebron and the Cavs will dominate the Magic. I’m not sold on the Magic as a true championship contender. They lose focus on the defensive end of the floor during portions of the game. They attempt way to many 3 point shots and don’t get Big Shoulders Howard the ball in the low post enough. Cavs in 6 games.
