3rd Quarter
Boston up by 17. Rondo and Ray Allen getting things done, House has hit 11points to go with rays 15.
Howards got 11 for tha Magic.
I'm an oldskool magic fan so I'm hoping they'll go 2-0 but it's looking like a W for Boston at the mo

Rondo jus got a triple double, 10 points 10 rebounds and 15 assists, 23 point lead. Perkins is keeping things honest in the paint and Orlando don't look real organised on offence. House is feeling it.

4th quarter, 86-64 Eddie House scored 11 points in the last 4.5mins and has 22points. Orlando are just playing penetrate and kick it out for a tray but cant hit shit or Boston are just all over them and they have to reset

Pierce has 4 fouls played 10mins opened scoring with a 3 and then has warmed the bench for the rest

93-75 to Boston. Not much going in at the mo, everythings kinda just rimming out, I blame that on starbury running the point, he's a curse

102-88, Eddie house just went to the bench with 31points. he's shot the lights out. They showed a replay before that i had missed and Eddie house was running back after a shot and someone from tha magic slapped him across the back of the head with an open hand. Wonder if anything will come of it considering how much Rondo's got away with lately

Eddie was in da house tonight!
He scorched the Magic, hitting 4/4 from downtown and 11/14 from the field overall for 31 points in just 28min on court!
He more than made up for Pierce sitting on the bench in foul trouble...
1-1 and all tied up as home court advantage shifts back in favour of the C's

House was def tha man, Davis and Perkins limited Howards dominance in the paint and Bostons guards did a good job on Orlando's outside shooters but in saying that Orlando looked pretty flat
LC - How does Boston have Home Court Advantage? If the Magic win their 3 home games (Games 3,4 & 6), they win the series. Wouldn't Boston need to win one in Orlando to gain back Home Court Advantage?
Go the Magic!

I really like Eddie House. Huge respect for a guy that can come in cold, or be asked to play highly varied minutes and still hit big shots. Did it all last year and continues to do so. It's these 7th or 8th guys on the bench that win 'ships. Delonte West is another guy that has been doing the same.

Yeah Im with you thedoctor, I could never cum straight into a game like that and hit shots cold.
Mad respect to those guys

Bet Phoenix is pissed that they trading Rondo for absolutely nothing.....
What makes it even dumber for Phoenix is that the player they picked with the draft pick from the Rondo trade was used on Rudy Fernandez and then gave him away to Portland for cash..

Rafer Alston was the player who slapped Eddie House upside his head, House hit a 3 off a screen and jumped around celebrating and bumped Alston and as he ran up the court away from Alston he got slap in the back of the head. Suspension?

Alston could be in a little trouble...I sense a 1-game suspension coming...

How long until you admit that it was beyond stupid it was to put Rafer Alston on the same level as Rajon Rondo LA Boy?
We won't even mention you also said Brandon Roy...
