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.

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

They don't look good so far. Need some time to gel I'm sure.

"It was a well-needed team meeting where everybody had an opportunity to get off what they had on their chest or what they had in their head about us figuring things out," James said. "Right now, we are a 9-8 team and we have to own up to that … Right now, we're at 9-8 because we've been playing like that."

James, who scored a team-high 23 points, and Wade refused to disclose what was said. It capped a night where emotions ran higher than ever for the Heat. There were moments where players and coaches were seen arguing during timeouts. During the middle of the Mavs' decisive 13-0 run to start the third quarter, it appeared James bumped shoulders with Heat coach Erik Spoelstra as he walked toward the bench.

Spoelstra downplayed the incident when asked by reporters. He did say emotions were high and the entire team was frustrated at times.

"That's the way it should be," Spoelstra said. "I think we all were (frustrated) … I think we all were in timeouts and that's the way it should be. This shouldn't be fun out here and it was painful to go through a third quarter like that, and if guys feel that pain, good. I want them to."

There is this video of Lebron bumping into Spoelstra the other night. There is also a video of him doing the same thing to Mike Brown last season.

Then also supposedly Wade does NOT want Riley to take over as coach. Things should get interesting in Miami. Hopefully the losses keep piling up for them right now!

Yes I agree... keep losing and let us get a good lead in the division. I don't want them to win the division obviously, but mostly because then were stuck in a low seed in the playoffs.
