The Orlando Magic were beaten by Glen “Big Baby” Davis’ buzzer beater in game 4 and they wanted to make sure they didn’t have any more close finishes in this series against the Boston Celtics. Well, that didn’t happen in Game 5 as they blew a 14-point fourth quarter lead and make it close again in the final minutes of the game. The Celtics won 92-88.

The Cleveland Cavaliers just became the first team to go undefeated in the first round since the 2005 Miami Heat. They swept the Detroit Pistons in the first round and they just beat the Hawks 84-74 to sweep the series in the second round.
Lebron James, as usual, was just in another level but this time not in scoring but in getting his teammates involved. Read the rest of this entry →
It looks like the Boston Celtics just love an exciting finish to their games as they finished game 4 with a buzzer beater by Glen “Big Baby” Davis to win 95-94.

Heading into game three without Jameer Nelson or Rafer Alston, the Orlando Magic looked like a team that would lack leadership with a thin back court. No worries as 34-year old veteran Anthony Johnson did his job to help the Magic win 117-96 to take a 2-1 lead in the series.
Of course, the Orlando Magic wasn’t just about the back court, they were more of their one man front court – Dwight Howard. He was everywhere on defense – rebounding and blocking shots. He finished the game with 17 points, 14 rebounds and 5 blocks. Read the rest of this entry →

Shaquille O’neal just knows how to get his name talked about even if his team is out of the playoffs. A couple of weeks ago, Louis Amundson pranked Shaq and he retaliated. This time Shaq’s did a video of him tempted by Krispy Kreme donuts while Mariah Carey’s “We Belong Together” plays in the background.
I’ve got mixed emotions on this video as it looks funny, creepy and weird but I love it because it’s Shaq. Another great work by the Diesel.
Nuggets and Cavaliers are just dominating
Finally, Lebron James won the MVP award and he proved why in the first game as they crushed the Atlanta Hawks 99-72. James showed it as early as the first quarter where he took a charge on a fast break.
“An MVP taking a charge on the break?” Cavs guard Mo Williams said. “That’s amazing. You get that effort from him, how could I not take a charge? The whole night was about him and he came out and showed why he is the MVP—in the first quarter.” Read the rest of this entry →
