I'm very happy the game is on tonight. Final night of the preseason and then the regular season starts.

Me too.

The regular season is right around the corner. Just 4 more days for games to start counting. It should be an exciting season. We get to see if Harris, Harkless and Vucevic really have improved, and if so, how much have they improved. We get to see if Oladipo can be a cornerstone player for us. And we get to see if we have what it takes to make the playoffs if not tank for another year. As well as a lot more things.

Here's to another great Magic season.

I was thinking a couple of days about this teams identity a few years from now. i really hope we don't become a team that is athletic and flashy but struggles to make the finals and win games. i trust henny and Jacque to put this team on track!

i dunno

just a thought.

Mine would be:

Harris 18ppg, 8reb, 3asts, 1blk, 0.5stl.
Harkless 12ppg, 6reb, 2asts, 1blk, 1.5stl. (If he starts)
Oladipo 14-16ppg, 4-6rebs, 5asts, 0.5blk, 2stl.
Vucevic 14 ppg, 12rebs, 2asts, 1blk, 0.3stl.

I really don't know what to give some of the other guys yet.

I'd be ecstatic if if Harris avg 18 and 8

I know Harkless, Nicholson and Vuc have definately improved, and Dipo is a cornerstone imo, but I'm expecting a 28 win season.

I really hope gladness gets some run tonight, but I sadly doubt it... I also hope t12 can get some run just so we know he's not hurt

Magic should just sign Darko. Fans seem to think he is great anyways. . .

lol He retired at 27yrs old... if he really wanted to stay in this league he could easily do it as a productive bench player at worst. He's probably too busy enjoying his millions while chugging bottles of rakia on a boat in some remote location.

O'Quinn is a serviceable player.

Kenny Smith said that the Cavs will be a 55-57 win team this year... LOL

I will bet cash money that the Cavs don't even make the playoffs this year.

Honestly, its all on Bynum. If he makes a successful return, I think they definitely could. That's a big "if" though.

Pun intended.
