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!

Pure domination

Did anyone watched last night's opening ceremony. I was very amazed by it. It must have taken them a lot of work to do that. |

Yep, that was a spectacular opening ceremony. Somehow, I missed USA's entrance. I was over at my parents house, and right before going to a commerical break, it was said that there were about 20 more countries until USA came out. So I went back to my place, which is about 10 minutes away, and I still ended up missing it. |

Have you seen Dwight when he marched to the ceremony? Ben Q Rock might still have the photo of him. |

No, what did he do? I just watched the USA introduction on YouTube, though. They don't talk about Dwight, but towards the end theres a shot of him walking, along with Bosh and a few others in the background. Here's the video I watched (taped off of a TV, so quality isn't great): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBXE8mgaevI |

He just look excited just as everybody. I've seen how he reacted when the whole group of Team USA marched to the Olympic ceremony. Take a visit at Ben Q Rock's blog. |

Calderon's quote is the most surprising. He/they thought it would be "interpreted as an appropriate gesture"??? |

I couldn't understand Calderon's words that implies this. I don't think that people in Spain would appreciate that! |

ehh i would still like to have him on the team if it would have been possible for us to get him. the guy can play despite how much majority of magic fans (including me) hate his guts. 40%+ from 3 and his skills as a pg are too much to overlook. |

Yep, he's a really good PG. I don't care enough about the Raps to hate him. |
