The Magic beat up on the Heat to do their part in reaching the 7th seed. However, the Indiana game went down to the final minute and the Wizards pulled out a late win. So, the Magic are stuck in 8th - forced to play the Pistons. No biggie. I actually prefer the Magic play the Pistons for two reasons. One is Lebron James. I just don't the Magic are ready to handle Lebron over a 7 game series. Two, why not play the best? Everyone has discounted the Magic as a legitimate contender in the playoffs. And the Pistons are heavy favorites to go back to the Finals. So either we upset the #1 seed and move on to the second round (which even I don't really think could happen). Or, we get experience against a really good team that will probably end up in the finals. Either way, I hope the players learn from playing in the playoffs. With the experience and a couple tweaks in the offseason, we might have something for next year.
