Orlando might beat out Detroit, personally I favour them over Detroit...they really don't have a match up for Dwight. Cleveland or Boston will destroy Orlando. Combinations of Lebron, Z and Big Ben will box the hell out of Dwight...if not them KG will personally handle that role. If some crazy injury happens to Lebron, KG, etc...and Orlando does manage to make it to the finals....Dwight has no shot at taking boards away from the combos of Lamar, Gasol and Bynum(who should be back by then). So sorry to say this, Orlando has no hope of the NBA Finals this year...and if the miracle happened, they'd be swept. You make some interesting points, but you fail to realize a couple key aspects.
