Poor Scal. Lewis was by far the more troubling match-up for Boston in that series. Tonight will be different. KG has the quickness and length to chase Shard on the perimeter and the size to deal with him on the block. Right?

I picked the Magic over the Celtics last year because I looked at what had happened in their regular season matchups. So I can’t just act like whatever happens tonight is irrelevant because of how the Magic “dominated” as much as you can in a seven game series. And truth be told, this concerns me. CelticsHub points out that Garnett’s still physically limited, and how unsettling that is. But this is a big game, a revenge game, the Rottweiler game. And that means KG will push past whatever he needs to and go into EL TIGRE MONSTRUOSO mode.
Meanwhile, you’ve got Lewis in his third game back from suspension, VC’s been in and out banged up, and no Jameer Nelson. Those excuses won’t fly for the Magic, who need this win. Their beginning to this season has been shakey, much like last year’s. A win tonight and everything is fine and dandy, a loss, and the floodgates open to words like “fluke,” “master of panic,” and “poodles.”
We’ll have more on this in the 15 Footer later today.
