The Magic still believe that they are better than the Pistons despite the fact that Detroit eliminated them in five quick games earlier this week, according to The Orlando Sentinel.

"I think we're the better team," Hedo Turkoglu said. "If you look at the games closely, it upsets me."

Turkoglu wasn't the only player to hold that opinion.

"I don't want to say they're the better team, but they're the smarter team," Rashard Lewis said.

"No doubt, we're as good as Detroit," Dwight Howard said.

"I think we're a better basketball team -- at times," General Manager Otis Smith said. "What they have that we don't have is experience."
