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!

This win was big because with Grant coming back this week, we were able to stay relatively close to .500 at 8-11. That is without Francis for a few games, Dooling for most of the games, and most of all, Hill out the whole season so far... If we are .500 going into the new year, we should finish as one of the better teams in the second half of the season....good enough to get a low seed in the playoffs.... Good signs have been SF and Dwight both improving.....Dwight has been huge and SF has been a little more in control and more of a team player. |

The team is learning with Dwight, as he is getting double teamed and that is opening up things for others. As they master that, the team should see a much better offense and higher %. And with Hill coming back, that adds a consistent perimeter scorer and should take pressure off both Francis and Howard. When healthy, with Turk, Nelson and Dooling off the bench, we should have no trouble scoring. The best part about it is that these 3 are decent defenders as well (Turk has done a solid job this season surprisingly). I see this team getting very good later in the season. |

Hill=The ony guy on this team who can consistently hit a mid range jumpshot...Hedo needs to take some pointers from him, it would help a lot...Dwight should take some pointers too this offseason to improve his jumpshot |

Once Howard learns to pass when they double on him, we will be awesome. We should be looking for shooters on the next draft and FA. We need to spread the floor for Dwight and our bigs. |

On top of that, the Wiz and Heat suck, keeping the race open. |

they dont suck. but we can get better than them with practice and good drafting and FA signings. so we better have a good draft or we should kill the GMs. hope they dont screw us over like last season with that gay pick even though he could have been good. |
