NOTE FROM THE FORUM OWNER:

We had a long, enjoyable run, and I would like to thank every Orlando Magic fan who contributed to our small community on the web. This message board will be left online as an archive into the thoughts and minds of a group of Magic fanatics who lived through a 21-win season, the drafting of Dwight Howard, and an eventual NBA Finals appearance. You can also visit the original MagicMadness Forum at http://orlandomagic.proboards.com.

Special thanks to our Staff Members: Black and Blue, MAGICMANEVAN, and NYCMagicFan!

So what do you think will happen, I really do think he should share in the blame of the poor playing HE put this team together and I feel he should be the next to go...

I don't think so, just yet, the TEAM was improved from last year, he has made some mistakes, but also brought new hope to Orlando, he did take too long to fire Davis though and the Doug Christie for Mobley trade right now stinks, he let Bogans go instead of Stevenson which I didn't like.

But he also got rid of Me-Mac (this move had to be made at the time) a one star Magic team that ended up last was not going to work out and GHill's status was up in the air.

Drafting Howard and trading for Nelson, were good moves for the long run, but not for the now, this is what we are experiencing.

Battie was a good move also, he gives a great effort when he's on the court.
Hedo was also another good move, he just needs to get more consistency.

I'll have to wait before I pass judgement on JW.

JW has a plan and he is the only one on the Magic I consistently trust right now to bring his "A" game. Even in the Mobley trade he had reasoning that could help us out in the future. I'm a fan.

i said No- He hasnt done that bad of a job to get the can. but we will have to keep a close eye on him and watch the moves he makes for the rest of the season and in the offseason to determine this one.

He's made some nice moves, plus, this is his first full season as a GM. I think he'll continue to get better, and also I like his attitude. He works really hard to make us better, and has done so many behind the scenes things to really improve the atmosphere for his players.

JW good moves so far out-weights the bad.

His worst decision was bringing back Davis as the coach. And he fired him abit too late.

Drafting Howard and Nelson has been his best so far. Followed by getting Turk.

So he should stay IMO.

I said yes. Not just to be the odd man out. I say this cuz
1.Tmac trade. STILL MAD!!!!!!RRRR
2.Fireing davis with 18 games to go in the season
3.I just don't like him. he is annoying.

So thats why although i did like what he did in the off-season for the most part.... the tmac trade got me!!

who knows what really went down with mcgrady and weisbrod,but how much do u wanna bet that they could never coexist with each other.that's my opinion on those guys from what they've said about each other.weisbrod a hockey guy who can't stand players who balk and don't give their best efforts on d.francis is the one who is quickly falling onto the trade block.

This is his first year,and the makeup/luck of this team/organization has been basically horrible since shaq left even if it was almost a decade ago now.He needs more time,but he's certainly already a more talented drafter than rivers and gabriel were.jjjjeeeeeeeeesssssshhhhhhh,their picks were horrible and weisbrod gets howard and nelson right off the bat.
