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!

As I stated in another thread, I'm a big Chucky Atkins fan. I'll take him for $1.2 million any day of the week. |

A few months ago, I wrote a post about the prospect of bringing Chucky back. I was originally dead-set against it, but my stance has softened. I instead suggested that the Magic re-sign Diener. I'd still like to keep Travis around, but Chucky would be a big plus. |

Ok now something seems fishy in Denmark as they say. Someone explain to me how the Magic are going to pay Howard his big share of the pie & pay Lewis $75-$90 Mil??? |

Let me see if I have this one right. Orlando & Seattle do a sign a trade Lewis resigns for @70+ Mil for 6 years traded to Orlando for Darko Milicic for x amount of years traded to seattle with some other players.Each team getting what it needs.That would leave over $50 Mil for Dwight Right?? Ok fine if it works out that way.But lets say it doesn't.Doesn't that put Orlando up against it as far as $$$$ for signing 2 allstars ???? ec23456 |

Basically the FO is banking on Dwight and Rashard being all-stars and the primary players for this team. Not out of the question. Sure it could backfire, but I like the potential there.

Its a tricky situation. But we wont know anything until later this week when they actually get the deals signed. Maybe then we might or might not find out the numbers' for both deals, it depends if they disclose the amount of money on the contracts. So its really up in the air until we find out if we do a sign and trade or just the signing of Lewis and Dwight. |

I assume you mean Mavs. He'd be a decent pickup. He can't score worth a damn, and I mean that sincerely, but he rebounds and blocks shots.

I agree with Ben on this one. Don't expect an offensive outburst. He would be as good a pickup as any of the FA bigs out there (with the exception of Mikki Moore) |

Not happening. He wants big money and we can get a guy thats cheaper but just as productive in free agency. |

Magic in East Finals Next Year for sure. IF you dont think Dwight HOward and Rashard Lewis equal one LeBron then you are stupid, you saw How the Cleavland LeBrons got to the finals, the Magic will at least be there in the East finals, Ninja Vanish |

OK, changing the subject....if we sign Cabezas I'll be interested in seeing if he is more of a true point than Jameer. Gosh I want to see what's going on with the sign & trade!!! |

This is a forum for intelligent fans who wish to maturely discuss the Orlando Magic and, at this point in the year, analyze the merits of the off-season moves. If we just posted "Hooray, Hooray! We're going to go to the finals" all the time, it wouldn't be much fun. |
