Celtics vs. Magics Game 1?

I find it funny how Magic are favored to win (even sweep the Celtics) but the Celtics held their own in Orlando. Even sports analysts were saying the Magic are just too deep, too talented, and too strong. (even though it's one game, it's still one game down in the series that Orlando has to overcome)

Does anyone else agree that it's the intangibles that these analysts and other fans miss that makes the Celtics a better team? I see Davis, Rondo, and Tony Allen hustling for loose balls and never giving up on plays that helped the Celtics do better today (and even in the previous series, when they were favored to lose). That it's the effort of the players and the energy they bring, instead of their ability to score or make plays? Or is there something else that caused the Magic to lose?

Just curious about opinions.

BQ 1: I'm a Celtics fan, but even I think this series will go to 7 even after seeing the Celtics play great ball for 3 quarters. Anyone else think this series will go that far or not and why?

BQ 2: Suns or Lakers tomorrow and why?

    I think they can't favor celtics because they are good as a TEAM. Everyone is good on the celtics and they distrubute the ball and points throughout the team. They expect Dwight, Carter, and now Nelson to be their winmaker for the Orlando but it's just not happening. They don't give Celtics enough credit for playing as a team.

    Its 1 game, if the Celtics get another Away Win, then ima give em major props

    BQ 1: 7 games because Orlando is a bit rusty, they had too much rest... not to mention playing inexperienced teams

    BQ 2: LA because its their homecourt, but Suns win it in 6 or 7
