Can't Wait For The Finals To Start!

Bring on the Lakers! Every round has been tough, with each round even harder. Now it comes down to the two hardest working teams in the league playing each other for the championship.
Hard to believe they started out 0-2 losing to Atlanta and Memphis. Or that they were down 2 games to 3 against the Celtics, a team that was 32-0 when leading a series 3 games to 2.

The Magic were the #1 team in the league (according to a few ESPN rankings) when Jameer Nelson went down. It's unbelievable they were able to trade for Rafer Alston -- and that "Skip TO My Lou" would come through with the best playing of his career.

Rashard Lewis has gone from overpaid to an All-Star. If there are any basketball fans left in Seattle they can't believe what they are seeing. Michael Pietrus suddenly started playing like Otis thought he would in the playoffs.
This is great. It is everything we could have hoped for, and more.

Go Magic!

    Jameer Nelson has been practicing and scrimmaging with the Magic, and the players think that it will be a 50/50 chance that Jameer will be activated for the series.

    I'm sure the Magic would not put Nelson's future at risk unless they were sure he is sufficiently recovered from his torn labrum.

    I trust the Magic will do what's best for Jameer; if he is indeed sufficiently recovered from his injury and can play 15-18 minutes a game, that could only help the Magic.
