Game 6 - This is the Magic We're Talking About

Last night was game 6 of our 6 game package and I am very sad. Even though the Magic are sooooo bad...I enjoy the time with my boys and I go into the games with low expectations so I am not at all disappointed when they lose.  

Oddly enough, this game was almost identical to last year's game against the 76er's.  Once again we were fortunate enough to get club seats.  

A short video walking through the club section

Once again the Magic built a big lead (21-6) as the 76er's looked awful to begin the game.  And once again the Magic blew that 15 point lead in no time at all! Even before the 1st quarter ended.  

From then on it was back and forth.  Philadelphia would build a lead and then lose it...the Magic would build a lead and then lose it. And so it went...

So...one would think a 6 point lead with two minutes left on your home court would be a win.

Foolish foolish...we're talking about the Magic here...

Yep!!!  7 in a row unanswered.  Then this happened.

I wish that this was where the game ended.  Not only because the 76er's made a basket with 3 sec. left that ended up being the game winner, but because the final 26 seconds took 20 minutes!!!! No Joke!!!

3 or 4 time outs called and 2 reviewed plays (neither of which went Orlando's way) and the time just inched along.  

On a final note, the game ended with Fournier dribbling down court with 2 seconds left, being cut off by a defender, and ending up on his butt!  I really think they could have called a foul on that play!
