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.

Special thanks to our Staff Members: Black and Blue, MAGICMANEVAN, and NYCMagicFan!

Mask aside, his game is reminding me a lot of his. Obviously Rip was more highly touted coming out of UConn.....Lee no doubt has a bright future in this league. What a pick by Otis!!

It was not a good pick. It was an excellent pick and glad it's righting the ship for the Magic's glory to be successful in the future. Great job by Lee!

Plus to fill a hole we had through the draft, especially that late in the draft is amazing. One spot this team needed to fill was the 2 guard spot, we might have solved that one for the long road. The kid is polished having the four years at WKY and he's only going to keep getting better. I love drafting guys late with four years of college, look a Jameer who had 4 big years at St. Joes. Now he dropped in our laps luckily as teams kept passing on him and a great trade to bring him here. The Magics draft luck seems to be changing.

Hey....where is Fran Vazquez? lol

boy can come up big when we need him on the offensive end...and he is one hell of a defender on some of the bigger names in the league.....ala Ray Allen

this boy needs to stay a Magic for while!! :)

lee is very very under rated... he is the total package....and still never got one ounce of credit.... not saying he should have won the ROY trophie but should have gotten atleast a little credit for his play, and personally i feel he was the most efficient rookie of them all aswell as clutch....he has won some games for us





.....if the draft was today, where would u guys draft C. Lee?

Good call on comparing him to Rip. Ever since Lee got that mask, I've been like, "Did this dude receive the spirit of Rip? Cuz he sure is playing like him."

The way he slashes around and never stands still and how clutch he is...if he keeps wearing the mask, it'll be neat seeing him and Rip face-to-face...or should i say...mask-to-mask...lol :D

He reminded me of Rip and then with the mask, almost perfect. Lee actually is a better perimeter defender imo but he has time to learn a lot still. He's a smart shooter and also a good slasher.

Nuggets coach George Karl doesn't think that anyone could have covered Kobe Bryant during stretches of Friday night's Game 6.

"No. 24 had a great five minutes at the end of the (first half) that no one in basketball could have covered him," Karl told the Denver Post.

"He made about four shots in that stretch that I think Jesus would have had trouble covering. And those took the game from a manageable game to 13 (points)."

I can easily see this, the mask has given Lee superpowers.
