Stan Van's rotations are so questionable. JJ played little to no minutes against Clev and now he gets all the OT minutes in the Finals against the Lakers?
He was shooting 1-5 from 3, so it wasn't like he was knocking down big shots. I have no idea why Alston or Nelson did not play the minutes down the stretch.
Even saying all that Lee blew a lay up at the end. That was a choke for the ages.

In addition to his massive brick laying, does Red Dick not realize that on those rare occasions that he drives towards the hoop, everybody in the building knows that he's a 9 to 1 favorite to pass? The Fakers simply filled the passing lanes and plucked off his feeble attemps at dishing.
I think Shaq's characterization of Van Gundy as "The Master of Panic" is coming through at the worst possible time: he fu/cks up smoothly running machine by inserting Nelson, and now a domino effect has started: Nelson, with a four month layoff and inserted into the pressure of the NBA Finals, is not playing well-shocking!-which, in turn, has caused Alston to started pouting and bitching, and Anthony Johnson, who gave them some valuable minutes in the Celtics series, has disappeared. Then there's the wisdom of designing a play at the end of regulation for a rookie, and one who had just blown a chippie with 10 seconds left. Funny thing is, one of the Magic stated that they practice that play frequently with Lee, and he always makes it. Yeah, I'll bet he does...in practice.
I've counted out the Magic before in the playoffs and been proven wrong, and they've blown at least one game in each previous series. However, I think this was one gift too many, I'm afraid...

I can't fault him too much.
Lee choking on the inbounds chippy would have won it. Rashard was the answer to the closer, and the Lakers did get lucky. Not sure who to blame here, but blaming the coach is the easy answer!
