I hope this place doesn't get shut down with everyone posting all at once when the draft starts.

Doesn't look like it unless a link appears on the Magic's website. I get the vibe that Rob is going to keep everything in house and not allow fans to see from behind the scenes.

In theory, it reduces the load on the site. But the site usually bogs down and/or outright craps out on draft night anyway.

Maybe everything is only gone until after the draft.

They need all the juice they can get to keep this site from tapping out during the draft?

Just a hunch here, but it was probably to prepare for the amount of traffic that this site is going to receive once the NBA draft starts.

Probably to reduce bandwidth so the servers can handle all the extra traffic tonight for the draft.

It's probably to keep the bandwidth down during this period of expected high traffic. We do that at the NFL Draft site I'm an admin at.

I thought it was just my Tapatalk screwing up, but on the actual website they're gone.

Also, I'll be ready for the next thread guys. If any of you have any cool pics for me to put it, then post them here.
