I think if Orlando gets off to a good start, they will add more ESPN/TNT games like they did this past season. We do have alot of NBATV games, but those arent National.

Crap. I was hoping to see the Magic on tv more.

Well, hopefully if we do well this season we will be rewarded with more. We, like the Raptors, are a good team with not many hot names so we have to just work harder.

One game?!?!

I wasn't expecting too much, but I thought the combination of making the playoffs and adding Lewis and Van Gundy would be enough for a couple of more games than last season.

1 game? Thats terrible. They better add more because thats sad. We added a star and a great coach, and we have an all star in Dwight and we only get 1 game on ESPN?! :no:
