Game 4: Orlando Magic 84 Philadelphia 76ers 81Analysis: Orlando was able to win this game because the 76ers finally had a bad shooting night. Philadelphia pretty much outplayed the Magic in every area, but just couldn't get enough shots to fall in the end. With the series tied 2-2, it's still anyone's series to win. The 76ers could easily win the next two games and I think whoever wins Game 5 of this series will go on to win the series. It could be another classic battle between these two teams in what is probably the closest series of the first round other than Celtics-Bulls.
Key Players of The Game
Hedo Turkoglu: Turkoglu has struggled all series, but he found his shot in Game 4 and also nailed the game winner. He finished with 17 points by hitting 8 of 11 shots from the floor.
Dwight Howard: Another double-double for Dwight, who finished with 18 points and 18 rebounds. Not spectacular but still dominant enough in the middle for the Magic to win.
Courtney Lee: After a poor Game 3 performance, the rookie bounced back strongly in Game 4. He finished with 15 points on 6 of 11 shooting. He is the unsung hero of this series for Orlando because they would be in big, big trouble without his strong play so far.
Andre Iguodala: Iguodala had a poor shooting night going just 4 of 13 from the floor and finished with 13 points. He did have 7 rebounds, 11 assists, and 2 steals though.
Andre Miller: Miller also had a rought shooting night hitting just 6 of his 17 shot attempts. When both Andre's combine to shoot 10 of 30 from the floor then it's going to be tough for the 76ers to win
