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!

Good move, Lee is much better suited to guard West since he can do more off the dribble then Allen and JJ is not a good matchup with a player like that. Lee needs to do a good job, he did a GREAT job on House who is nothing more then a spot up shooter, West brings much more to the table, but I trust Lee can do a good job. |

this may sound strange but this team and the home crowd arent in sink like other teams are with their crowd. our home crowd can be totally in the game and the magic still loose, and when the team is down or off and needs a little spark the crowd never comes to the rescue. is it just me or does anyone feel the same way?

yeah the crowds arent like they were back in the mid 90's. alot of the ppl coming back now are bandwagoners who ditched the team after shaq left and just hated on the team for the past 10 years. people will probably be more into it the farther we get along in this series. if we lose the first 2 games their gonna jump off and start hating again. i wouldnt say that this game is a must win game but i think its extremely important we steal atleast 1 of the first 2 and this game is as good as any to do that. plus if we take them down game 1 in their house there might be some mental doubt that starts building the the cleveland lebron's heads |

I know teams never say that they are satisfied with a split, but I would be thrilled coming back to Orlando with the series tied 1-1. Let's go out and get this one tonight! Anyone here listen to the female Boston Globe writer? She was on First Take today. She has to be the dumbest basketball "analyst" I've ever seen. She says that the Magic won't be able to double LeBron like they did against Pierce because the Cavs have way more shooters. They have Gibson, Wally, West, and Mo Williams. NEWS FLASH MORON!!!! If the Cavs play all 4 of those players with LeBron, we will destroy them. Why on earth would the Cavs play a lineup of 3 guards and 2 small forwards? Not all of those shooters are going to be in the game at once. At least for our team, we have shooters in all positions that can be in the game at the same time. The Cavs will have 3 of those players at most in the game and we'll bring the double team from a non-shooter, such as Wallace or Joe Smith. |

I disagree. If we want to win this series we need to take one in Cleveland. And that makes it a must win game. |

I see what you are saying, but this game is no more a must win than the other 3. |

Yup every game is important. But a win tonight will give our team a lot of confidence. |

Totally agree... but still don't think this is a "must win."

Not a must win, but this is a chance to show the world that we are the better team and that if we come to play there is nothing the Cavs can do. |

we gotta run them out of the building like we did game 7 in boston. that was the first time we really tried to push the tempo and it worked wonders. Z cant keep up w/ dwight (i also have doubts varajeo can keep up) and even if lebron gets back in transition dwight will take it up strong and get fouled by him anyways. |
