Boston Lose to Orlando and get eliminated.

It was a painful game to watch.Orlando Vs Boston game 7 at the TD banknorth.In the First Quarter,Orlando were up by 10 points.With 4 out 4 shooting from the 3-point line.I squirmed every time i saw Hedo or Alston rise to shoot a 3-point.It ws almost always,a swish.

Boston tried to come back,but it was Orlando's night.Everything was going in.At the end Boston lost 101-82.A decisive 19 point win.

As for me,I am done watching the playoffs.My team is out and its not worth it anymore.

I am now rooting for Denver.I hate the Cavaliers,and I hope they get bundled out somewhere along the way.

Next year,Boston will be a better team with KG and Leon Powe back.And hopefully a new fresh power forward and point guard.Please Doc rivers,get rid of Stephon Marbury and Mikki Moore.

Boston win Game 5 to go up 3-2

It was one of the best comeback in the series.At one point Boston trailed 14 points at the end of the third quarter and the only person who was scoring was veteran Paul Pierce who finished with 19 points.

With 5 minutes to go Orlando were still up 11 points.But all of a sudden the tide started changing and Boston made an 11-2 run.Ray Allen who had a cold night made a 3 pointer with less than 2 minutes left to give the Boston Celtics the lead.Orlando could not Capitalize on 3 open 3 point shots.They tried to foul Boston players to stop the clock,but Paul pierce,Eddie House and Big baby Glen davis sunk all the free throws to give Boston a 92-88 win.

Now Celtics lead the series 3-2 heading back to orlando for Game 6 on Thursday night.Its a do or die game for Magic since if they lose,they are knocked out of the series.

Meanwhile,several Orlando Magic fans have been crying foul after the game 4 loss in Orlando.Some bloggers insist that the NBA corporate would want a Boston/Caveliers Eastern Conference final.Game 5 also had its share of conterversial calls.One being what looked an airball shot by Rondo which was ruled to have hit the rim giving Celtics possesion at the closing seconds of the game.Another call is the ball tussle with Big baby glen davis with Rashard Lewis.The Magic team wanted it to be called a jump ball,but instead it ended up being a foul for Davis who sunk the two winning free throws.

Game 6 is on Thursday night 8 pm at the Amway arena in Orlando,Florida.

C.S Lewis great quotes.

One of the greatest christian minds of the 20th century,C.S lewis had some great quotes.These are my favorite:

1.A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word, 'darkness' on the walls of his cell.

2.If the whole universe has no meaning, we should never have found out that it has no meaning: just as, if there were no light in the universe and therefore no creatures with eyes, we should never know it was dark. Dark would be without meaning.

3.We all want progress, but if you're on the wrong road, progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road; in that case, the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive.

4.There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, "Thy will be done," and those to whom God says, "All right, then, have it your way."

5.The real problem is not why some pious, humble, believing people suffer, but why some do not.

6.Telling us to obey instinct is like telling us to obey 'people.' People say different things: so do instincts. Our instincts are at war... Each instinct, if you listen to it, will claim to be gratified at the expense of the rest.

7.Some people feel guilty about their anxieties and regard them as a defect of faith but they are afflictions, not sins. Like all afflictions, they are, if we can so take them, our share in the passion of Christ.

8.Literature adds to reality, it does not simply describe it. It enriches the necessary competencies that daily life requires and provides; and in this respect, it irrigates the deserts that our lives have already become.

9.It may be hard for an egg to turn into a bird: it would be a jolly sight harder for it to learn to fly while remaining an egg. We are like eggs at present. And you cannot go on indefinitely being just an ordinary, decent egg. We must be hatched or go bad
