Sixers' season comes to an end

The Magic beat the Sixers 114-89 last night to win the series 4-2 and put an end to the Sixers' postseason hopes. I listened to a little bit of the game in the second quarter, and it didn't sound like the Sixers were ever really in the ball game. Orlando jumped out to an early lead by outscoring them 30-19 in the first quarter, and after that the Sixers never got any momentum. Overall, this was an expected outcome. Orlando won their division with a good record, while the Sixers struggled down the home stretch and only barely managed to end up with a 500 record. It was a surprise to me to see them win game 1 and then come back home to Philly and win game 3 also. I had started to think that maybe they could pull off the series win, but they needed to win their home games, and they dropped both games 4 and 6. So, I'll have to wait until next season to hear another Sixers game. Meanwhile, the Celtics have their hands full with the Bulls. What I expected to be an easy series is turning out to be a dogfight. The Bulls won again last night, in triple overtime.
