The Orlando Magic survived overtime to beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 116-114 on Tuesday night to go up 3-1 in the Eastern Conference finals.

“We’ve got to have the killer instinct if we want to win a championship,” Magic center Dwight Howard said. “We’re not done yet. We’ve got to finish it.”

Dwight Howard led the Magic with 27 points and 14 rebounds while Rafer Alston added 26 points. Rashard Lewis and Mickael Pietrus both added 17 points of their own.

“I had to get myself going. My teammates found me in the right place to score and I kept scoring,” Dwight Howard said after the overtime victory. “I hate losing, especially on my home floor. We kept fighting for the win.”

Unless LeBron James is able to clone himself in time for Game 5 on Thursday night, the Cavaliers don’t have a chance in hell.
