The Magic, who steamrolled Cleveland in the Eastern Conference Finals, just didn’t put up a fight at all in the Finals. The first few games were decided by a handful of points, but last night’s game 5 was embarrassing for the Magic.

Mark Reynolds of the Arizona Diamondbacks is off to a hot start in 2009. He’s batting .269 with 15 homeruns, 38 runs, 37 RBI and 12 stolen bags.
