PrintScoreboard Watching will give Orlando Magic fans a heads-up on which games with potential playoff implications to pay attention to.
This afternoon, the Orlando Magic will finally learn whom they'll face in the second round of the NBA playoffs as the fourth-seeded Atlanta Hawks and fifth-seeded Milwaukee Bucks square off in Game 7 at Philips Arena. Atlanta won the opening two games of the series before Milwaukee took the next three to seize control. But the Bucks blew a chance to clinch on their home court in Game 6 with a prolonged third-quarter offensive drought. Now, they'll have to win a Game 7 on the road for the first time in franchise history. Also, the Hawks have never lost a Game 7 at home. The odds appear to be in their favor. But that was the case in Game 5, which Milwaukee stole after Atlanta's offense devolved into a series of one-on-one possessions that ended in clank after clank.
No matter who wins today's game, the Magic will kick off their next series on Tuesday. Here's the schedule.

Through 3 minutes of play, the Hawks lead 6-4.

Yes.
As long as Jennings takes it to the hole and gets everyone involved since he has more duties due to Bogut’s absence.

Yeah, we'll see.
To be honest, I’m not a huge Jennings fan. He reminds me too much of Iverson.

IMO
if Tyreke Evans were the PG of that team instead, they would’ve duked it out with Atlanta for that 3rd seed. People give Jennings too much credit for “taking” the Bucks to the playoffs. The addition of Salmons turned them around, Ilyasova is stepping up, and Bogut was a DPoY candidate prior to his injury.
I'm a dude!

Very true. Everyone got caught up in that 55 point game, and forgot that he was pretty mediocre the rest of the year.

Not a good start for the Bucks as they only have a 13 point first quarter.

I personally prefer UCF to FSU as it was my 2nd choice...
but it’s ultimately up to you to decide.

Yeah.
I love both schools, although I’ve been an FSU guy since I was about 6. Ultimately, I plan on getting a Master’s from whichever one I don’t attend first (thankfully they both have a program for what I want).

Moved up here for a dream job
My buddy got hired heading up the QA for a video game production company, and they were on the tail end of two IPs, and would be moving into producing the sequels. So I moved up to try and work my way into a Writer’s position.
Unfortunately, with the economy, it didn’t pan out and the company had to lay off 80% of the QA before the position opened up.

Agreed.
On the plus side, if it hadn’t happened, I probably wouldn’t have gone back to school. And now I’m working to do another thing I love. So it seems like it may have all worked itself out.

What an awful game by two teams that deserved to both be knocked out
Atlanta is such an unfundamental team its ridiculous. Magic should take no more than 5 games to beat them.
