    If Rondo continues to play well and KG does to Lewis what he did to Jamison, Celtics in 6 even if Pierce doesn't show up. If not and the three's are falling and Vince decides to try, this could be ugly.

    This is going to be a good series. I think Magic will pull it off in seven though.

    People keep forgetting Orlando didnt have Nelson last year , Nelson missed the playoffs , played like few games in finals. Vince Carter is huge upgrade over rookie Courtney lee . Orlando has gotten better , deeper over the offseason. I agree Boston will be tough matchup , but this series will go 6 /7 with Magic winning in the end.

    As some matchups look good for Boston , Magic also have matchups they can take advantage of . I cant wait for this series , two teams that are deep and talented.

    As long as there is no Queen James in this series I'm happy. :)

    People have been saying that sweeps of Charlotte and Atlanta doesn't prove anything about how good the Magic are. Well I think the same can be said of Boston beating the Cavs, Boston just beat a team of role players surrounding a star player like a lot of people suspected.

    Orlando is a completely different story, maybe the deepest team personnel wise in the NBA with a superstar big man the Cavs didn't have that got them trounced.

    Boston has a chance but I think Orlando wins in 6.

    I'm picking the Magic, but this is the first series that I'm interested in since Thunder-Lakers. It should be a good series.

    It should be interesting. Orlando hasn't been challenged yet, we'll see how this new team does against veterans with championship experience.

    The Rondo/Jameer matchup will be the biggest thing to watch IMHO.

    Rafer Alston was playing decent ball for the Magic and VC this year is just horrendous. He might be an upgrade over Lee, but no way would I take him over Hedo last year.

    Magic are not only the experts pick but 6 out of 10 fans like the Magic as well. This should be the most competitive series in the EC playoffs, can't wait.

    I understand that
    but
    The teams they played didn't seem like they could stop much either
