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!

Honestly, if the Celtics manage to stay fully healthy I feel like they are the team to beat too. But I've got to think part of the reason those guys are playing up the Celtics is to sort of jab at their former employers... |

Okay, I too feel as though the Celts will meet us in the eastern conference finals. I'm not so certain they'll beat us though. Aside from Carter, all of our starters are heading into their prime. While all but one of the Celtics starters (assuming Wallace starts at center) are getting older and slowing down. I've got no respect for the Cleveland team. |

I have to agree, on paper if healthy they probably have the best starting 5 in the league. With that said we are a close 2nd but we probably have a edge in the depth department, so it should be very interesting. Also don't sleep on the Cavs, I think this will be an interesting 3 team and race and without question whoever gets that 1 seed will have a HUGE advantage because they will only have to go through ONE of the big THREE; and obviously home court never hurts also. |

I agree Vinnie. We've got them with depth but their starting 5 is nothing to bet against. Teams have a right to be hyping them up but they can't forget who made it to the finals from the East, either. |

Rasheed Wallace seems to be fitting in nicely for the Celtics. Our bench is deep, but the Celtics are about on par. Plus, expect Rondo to improve even more. However, age will be a factor for Boston. We'll see who's left standing and how much is left in the tank once the playoffs roll around... |
