As much as I have doubted the Orlando Magic through the regular and even throughout the playoffs they have without a doubt proven they are very much for real as they have knocked off the defending champion Boston Celtics and are on the verge of eliminating Eastern Conference favorites in LeBron James' Cleveland Cavaliers.

Even though Dwight Howard isn't exactly a Shaq like scorer in the paint the Orlando Magic have realized for the first time that he really doesn't need to be as both Hedo Turkoglu and Rashard Lewis have shown they are up to the task of taking the bulk of the scoring load.

 

I thought coming into this series the Magic would be exposed for their love affair for shooting the long ball, but they have just flurished in their series with the Cavs and seem to be on their way to advancing to the NBA Finals.
