I voted Magic in 7 but I think Orlando can lose this, just like I think LA can lose that series. Unlikely, but I wouldn't be shocked.

Magic in 6. Charlotte will hustle and bustle which will frustrate Orlando, but the Magic's depth and fire power will be a little too much. This will go 5- 6 games so I'll go with my heart and hope they extend them to 6.

Charlotte will most likely win game 3 and I see that arena exploding during/after

this series might come down to how well the bobcats shoot from the perimeter. they will slow the game as much as possible but they will still need to score in the 90's to win

 

[oasis05]

I think this will be the most interesting series. Charlotte has the length and the defense to match up with the magic. It'll likley come down as sawduzt said to how well they shoot. If larry hughes, and the rest of the chuckers get hot it could be a long series for the magic.

The trouble for the bobcats is with dwight howard in the lane they are going to be dependent on drawing fouls to score, and while they have slashers they don't have any top of the heap guys. If they can get into the bonus and hit their outside shots that'll go a long way toward keeping them in the series. It's pretty aparent that if the bobcats manage to make it a series it'll be because of an offensive surprise.

I don't see the series going past 5 games. But, I'm sure hoping those bobcats bring it.

 

[Absinthe]

Charlotte's length is irrelevant. Dwight Howard has absolutely feasted on them this year. The only thing they can hope to do is foul him a lot because they have Chandler/Ratliff/Diop/Muhammed to foul him. I'd make him make his free throws and stay at home on the shooters.

ROFL

TNT's scoring is fucked up!!! lmfao

damn theyre fixing it... they were giving Orlando points charlotte scored and vice versa

 

[Ruggeder]

Why was Howard allowed to knock the other teams center down so he wouldn't score with no penalty? Can shaq do that if we play them?

 

[Typhoon]

Come on Charlotte.


Not because I want to play them, but because I hate Orlando. If we play them im fine, but if the Bobcats beat em thats cool too.
