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!

Magic with the blowout win, 102-83. Hope the regular season game threads aren't like these preseason ones.

Yeah, not too much activity on the threads for the preseason games. But I sure do follow preseason games close like they were regular season even though they arent on tv. |

Judging from tonight win over the Hornets, Ryan Anderson had a very good game. The man can stroke it from behind the 3 point line. I reallyyyyyy like our team! |

We are just looking incredible out there. Everyone is participating in the action and stepping up when they get their chance on the court!! I have a good feeling about this season!!

Anderson's 22 points is really encouraging. We were all sad to see Lee have to go, but Anderson is looking like he'll fit right in with our type of offense. SVG had this to say after last night's game (Magic now 5-0):

I'm just loving our depth. We have sooo many guys that can put up points that if ones off, who cares we got a whole crew to step in. So many versatile guys that can play multiple positions. I have high expectations for this season. Were looking great as it is, even though its only preseason. |

I agree with Stan, Anderson is gonna be a key component of our team. He is deadly from behind the arc. I'll miss Lee but I think Anderson will be better in the long term. |

Also, Anderson started last night. I wonder if that's something we'll see while Lewis is out the first 10 games of the season, or if it was mainly just SVG messing around with the line-up? |

Rookie

Although I love these guys and the performance two, things stick out: Dwight is shooting around 50 from the foul line (what happen to his improved stroke) and turnovers are very big (23 each in the last two games). They started out like this last year too. |

Hopefully the turnover problem is based mainly on rust, and also on the new guys getting used to playing with each other. Howard's FT shooting does concern me some, though. Like you said, he was supposed to have an improved stroke, so I'm not sure why he's still shooting so poorly. |

Agreed. And he has no pressure now.

Rocks blocking shots on guys with dreadlocks
|
the bulls announcers know absolutely nothing about our team. First turk apparently spent alot of time at the 2 for us and whenever dwight went out of the game he was a main post up option. Then they went off on the whole orlando shoots too many 3's and idk how they made it to the finals bs. They really like dwight though, they might as well have given him an on air BJ. |
