    Rashard Lewis and Hedo are soft. They are good players but they are finesse.

    Howard, Pietrus, and Alston are the only guys that have scrappiness to them.

    Boston is a team that usually does better after the first game. I expect them to win game 2 and game 3. This series will go 7 games in my opinion.

    Dwight Howard can dominate the boards but when they throw him the ball in the post Perkins puts a body on him and suddenly his lack of skill shows.

    Boston cannot beat the Magic without KG. Kendrick Perkins will foul out against Dwight and Rashard can take Big Baby off the dribble. Magic have too many weapons for the depleted Celtics. Maybe next year Celts!

    Both Perk and Big Baby did a good job in guarding Howard. Perk rarely gets into foul trouble when going up against Howard in fact he has never fouled out in a game vs Orl. Scalabrine has done a good job defending mobile big man in the past and he seemed to do a good job in guarding Lewis. Both baby and Scalabrine stretched the court bringing Howard out of the paint allowing the Celtics to attack the rim more aggressively. Anyways the Celtics can beat Orl they have their fair share of weapons as well but lets see what occurs from here on out.
