The verdict is clear : He sucked at play-offs. Yes he was inconsistent and streaky, yes he was making inexplicable passes but he was clutch and he was making plays when it was needed the most. Now, there is none of those positive aspects left in his game. He shot very poorly, somewhere around 0.23 percent and wasted clutch opportunities in two of the four games lost to Hawks. Magic went home in the first round of 2011 NBA playoffs with disappointing performances. This gives me more pain to accept what is plain and simple and that he is bust and at the verge of his final days as a starting NBA player. He is not even embraced by his beloved Magic fans anymore. Make no mistake about it his decline was rapid and predicted. Kicking the ball after the loss is not going to bring back his glorious memories and neither will do any good to his future uncertain NBA career. What might steer his ship is hard work and exercise with tons of shooting practices, but I very much doubt that he'd do anything not unless he needs more money in his bank account. Considering $20-30 millions in his secured NBA contract for the next two years, I dont think he'd feel the necessity to be a better athlete...
