NOTE FROM THE FORUM OWNER:

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!

If we had just shown up in the 2nd half, this was a W. No excuse to lose to that team when only one of their players showed up. Terrible, terrible loss. Hopefully they will at least learn that they can't always just show up late in the 4th and beat bad teams.

If i was dwight, i would be one pissed off dude. He took 7 shots all game. As for the rest of the shooters, they took 37 3-pointers. Holy crap..thats a lot for one team.

I am as big of fan of the 3 pointer as the next guy, but no team should be shooting them that much, especially when we only average 10 makes a game. It would be different if we averaged 20 makes a game, then the 37 attempts wouldn't seem so bad.

Considering who our big man is down low, our team tends to forget about him quite often. Dwight (if he hasn't already) needs to step up and demand the ball down low. Granted, i did not watch the game (thank god), i do not know if most of those 3's came from a Dwight pass-out of the post, but i would put good money that they did not.

On another note...whats the deal with VC? He was suppose to bring us some fire power, but every time i see him he is settling for jumpers, and the boxscore usually doesn't look good. Is he scared of driving the lane? Is he nursing an injury causing him to stay out of the lane?

not happy with the season so far, yes we have a 24-9 record, but it could easily be 27-6. :no:

dwight's post game is beyond pathetic at this point. its ridiculous that it looks as bad as his rookie year out there on offense now days. seeing him play lately he doesnt need more shots anyways cause its a disaster waiting to happen in his hands.

Point taken, but the ball still needs to be thrown into him and then worked back out to the shooters behind the arc. There are long strenuous parts of game where Dwight will go 6 or 7 possessions and not even be looked at on offense. Not how our team should be running the offense, IMO.

And besides, the team was built around him....if they do not like how his post game is, then something has to be done, because if he decides to stop playing defense, this team will hit a downward spiral.

well maybe we should get a big man coach that doesnt suck a** like ewing...or dwight should have taken a little more initiative to refine it during the offseason b/c the whole i took trainers w/ me everywhere i went and worked on it everyday sounds like a bunch of lip service at this point in the season.

right now you might as well pencil us in for the 3rd seed again the way were playing :no: and dont even get me started on the s**tty a** rebounding effort from rashard the past few games

redick needs to be getting carters minutes and we need to donate vince to a team that appreciates his lack of effort.

we maybe the most deep team in the league..but we still need to figure out who should be getting the minutes.

AND WHY IS BRANDON BASS NOT PLAYING?
