Guards from Orlando lose Magic!!!

So far in the NBA Finals series the Orlando Magic backcourt has been lacluster at best. Only Mikeal Pietrus in Game 1 has scored in double figures for the beleagured title contenders. Did anyone else notice that at times on Sunday the Magic went with a no point guard lineup? Rafer Alston did not play in the fourth quarter and Jameer Nelson only made a cameo appearance. No guard is shooting better than 38% and the group of backcourt players are shooting a combined 29%! Not championship contending stuff! Does anyone else think the early return of Nelson may have thrown a spanner into the chemistry of the guard group? Will the return to familiar turf for game 3 result in better performances?? Is there really a finals jinx for the Magic? Until Tuesday, we are left to ponder.
