no magic in mistakes

yes, here is my in-depth analysis of the self-destruction of the orlando magic in game four of the nba finals against the los angeles lakers...

jam nelson...

simply, the magic were outcoached by the better coach and outplayed by a better more experienced team... missed free throws (the pressure of the finals, the inexperienced choke)... missed defensive assignments (the rusty all-star rushed back too soon... yes, i refer to jam nelson... but even jam's play that mean the absence of a red hot raf alston (worst mistake a coach has made in recent memory) could have been overcome if the turk and superman made one of the eight free throws they missed in the last minutes of the game... of course if jam nelson could play defense, the game would have never gone into overtime or needed one of the eight free throws that the turk and superman missed in the last minutes of the game... but...

in overtime, the better coaching and the better more experienced team almost always wins... and so they did... alas, i'd have liked to have seen this town get excited (even though it is so pathetically shallow and self-indulgent and un-worldly, or unsophisticated, or just plain weak... but i'll try to stay positive about the mentality, level of intelligence, cosmo-ness, worldli-ness, maturity, enlightenment, development, and so on, around here... i do live around here, after all) about the magic winning and it's not impossible for the three game come-back, just highly improbably... so go ahead magic, do it...

right, there's the analysis, or something like that...
