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 is why I think we should bring Weisbrod back as solely a consultant for draft night. Weisbrod might have made the worst trades in history (McGrady/Francis, Mobley/Christie) but the man sure knows how to draft. He took Howard over Okafor and traded for Nelson! That's probably our best draft ever! |

This is the biggest reason why Otis should not be so stingy about giving up draft picks on trades. Their draft picks have been horrible. |

Again, Euro stats mean nothing. If you read in the article, it said he played very well when surrounded with great talent because he would receive open looks. Well that would be the case if he played here. |

Not necessarily. "Meanwhile, in Barcelona he seems pretty lost, exposing his great limitations in terms of basketball IQ, and nothing seems to point towards him finding himself anytime soon." If he can't play against the talent over there, imagine what happens when he plays over here. |

Fran plays a physical NBA-type game. Not a finesse man. |

Mr. Anderson

Him picking to stay in Europe after we drafted him is proof enough he sucks. Maybe his IQ in general (not only his basketball IQ) is questionable. I bet he is going to be the Gooden-Euro version with the brain farts and all. |

Exactly. Well said man. The article said he can't be the focal point of the team but if he plays with talent, he can succeed. I'm sure he can fit the NBA style of ball. |

Dave Twardzik drafting, ladies and gents! It's good that we have Foyle, so we can remember who he drafted higher than a ton of great stars in that draft for Golden State years ago. |

Somebody please make a new post of Twardzik's past draft history. I'm excited to see it! I know of a few but I need to know them all. |
