No way, Orlando has the biggest jonah on their team this year.

3 hugh factors that favor the Celtics IMHO
Garnett is playing unlike last season
Perkins can play Howard straight up no problem
And the most important factor
Hedo Turkoglo isn't playing......Celtics just had no one to match up with him.
People give Turk waaaaay too much credit for Orlando's success last season
Yet ignoring the return of a healthy Nelson./

For those referencing Garnett not playing last year remember that Jameer Nelson is healthy and playing this year for the Magic as well. I'd say Magic is 6 seems logical. Then again, I thought the Cavs in 5 or 6 was what was going to happen in this series so I'm probably the wrong guy to be making predictions right now.

I bet the Magic to win the East, but I'm thinking about hedging.
There's a reason the Celtics have always given this team trouble (remember w/o Garnett they took them to 7 last year).
Rondo will be able to do what he wants against Nelson and should be able to significantly slow him down.
Carter won't be able to keep up with all the screens for Ray Allen. If they put him on Pierce, Paul will have a much easier time then he had in the Cleveland series.
Garnett will be able to put Lewis in the box.
They all have good matchups. It's a long series because of that but I still am giving the Magic a slight edge b/c of Howard and their team depth, which the Celtics can't match.
If any of the Celtics are in foul trouble the replacement is significantly worse, which can't be said for Orlando.

Not to kick you when your down,....but it's easy to be logical when it comes to things being played out,...if you watch the game,..stay away from the bullshit ( games are fixed , ect) then,,,it's easy...

This should be an excellent Eastern Conference Championship. 
I agree that beating the Cavs was a big deal in Boston. The Magic took 3 of 4 from the Celtics this season, but the Celts are playing good ball which can't be overlooked.
It will be very entertaining to say the least. Looks like the line is opening at 6 for game 1
