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!

We got this one, guys! This team has some guts, but we've got to stop giving up 20 point leads.

It's getting old. We got the W. But they better learn on how to hold on to a big lead.

Ugly win. Thank God Paul and Chandler weren't playing. Hopefully we got all our turnovers and misses out of the way for San Antonio. If we play like this against the Spurs, we're going to get blown out.

Duncan is still not playing well this season. I think he has an injury or something. They need him at 100% to matchup with Dwight.

If there is a team that will hand us a loss, it will be the Champs. I like us to get another win, but it wouldn't be bad if we lose that one...

Ugly win, I agree.

But we won on the road, against a good team. I'll take it.

Well if Paul and Chandler had played, maybe we wouldn't have stopped playing there in the 2nd/3rd quarters, but I get your point. 7-0 on the road is huge no matter who you are playing. I bet we get off to a rough start against SA and then control the final 3 quarters for a W. If not, we still got the split that I wanted in those next two games.

Decided to lay back on my couch and enjoy this one in the 2nd half, knew New Orleans would make a comeback, didn't think it would carry into the 4th quarter.
HOWEVA, I knew that if we could play 2 good minutes of basketball late in the game that we'd pull out with the win and we did.
Props to Jameer for overcoming adversity again.
KEYON best performance by far of the season with 15 points as he still had jump shot difficulties.
Dwight was tired in the 2nd half but he fought through it with great effort.
Keith, Hedo, and 'Shard were all gassed tonight leading to most of those 30 3-point attempts not dropping.

Augustine deserved some playing time in the 2nd half as him and Dwight were a great duo.

No surprise that Magic Killer 4.0 was killing us again but at least David West played bad, and Peja and Mo Pete couldn't be clutch at the end.

10-2 yet we know we can improve even more with that bad shooting and 20 turnovers. God do I love this team led by SVG, you never think we're out of it.

I am getting worried about giving up 20-point leads and falling behind though. :)

At least this blown lead came on the road, the day after the biggest regular season game in a few years at home. Tough situation for us in all reality.

About giving up the 21-point lead, this isn't like the other games. Our team was running on fumes there in the second half!

It shows a lot about this team's mental toughness. Most teams would have let this game get away with those tired legs.

BTW...NBA TV can't get enough of the Magic right now. They've been talking about them for like 10 minutes.

If we only win 2 of the 4 remaining games of November, this would be considered a gigantically successful November considering the schedule.

stan ripped into the team in his post game interview, he basically said that this team hasnt learned the lesson of keeping up the intensity when they get big leads and he hinted that it might end up that a loss from blowing a big lead will send the message to the guys to keep up the intensity for the whole game
