"Aaron Gordon will cost Henny's job by Dec 2016." Predicted Dec 2014.

"O'Quinn will have a longer and more successful NBA career than Nicholson." Predicted Jun 2012. Verified on Dec 2014.

you have a good post, and good shooters, and a Pg who tries to score for himself and refuses/can't set anyone up, getting into the lane and kicking out.

it's quite obvious what the problem is. magic will never win with nelson playing PG. it's been like that for 7 years.


Sessions would improve the team he's not even an expensive option that'd we'd have to give up a lot for.

Miami has terrific pressure D, so our ball handlers struggling is predictable given how they've played this season. We are going to struggle unless Nelson brings it back to '09 form.

ESPN/ABC halftime coverage was terrible. All they talked about was the Knicks.

i noticed this after the ecf loss to boston. i knew nelson wouldn't take us to the finals and was hoping to see a change before dwight walks. Looks like its not going to happen. Also a coaching change would of been good 2 years ago

If they're on par with with Dwight and play the Center position feel free. If Greg P and Phil Jackson can take Tim Duncan and Shaq out in similar situations you bet your ass I'm not gonna listen to a word you have to say on the subject. Once again you sound like an idiot. We aren't talking about Al Jefferson here, and none of the other centers in the league get relied on the way we rely on Dwight. I mean christ we don't even have a back up center. You want BBD playing extended mins?


We have no backup Center, Dwight comes out if he's got 2 anytime from about midway to go in the 2nd.

They've got a Stephen Curry piece on my stream. Him and Dell Curry talking about growing up in the league.

He doesn't seem to understand this concept. If Dwight stays out there and gets 3 he'd prob kill Stan for not taking him out.

If your referring to me, I never ever flip flop on my stance on the Magic. I just keep it real.

Sessions/Calderon would not improve this team unless they were replacing Doo-hon's minutes. Neither are better playmakers than Hedo.

^^ What he is trying to say eyriq is that it is pretty annoying to see posters post on game threads who never post unless we are losing so they can push their opinions upon everyone and constantly bash the team over and over again.

But sometimes keepin it real can go wrong.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

Someone needs to do something ..

We need a new PG DESPERATELY .. Nelson would be nice as a backup, atm he's not good enough to be a starter anymore & Duhon is not worthy of wearing a NBA Team's jersey on a real court

But again, Otis probably disagrees :-?

Not too much longer and March 1st will be here. I have a feeling we'll be disappointed, but I think Otis will make some sort of move.

I don't think your realizing that he has TWO FOULS. Yes I can understand if he had more but he has TWO. No, it's absolutely ridiculous and now that you want to turn to insults I will make a it a point to come through and show you your wrong.

we need to get it to 10 and keep it there going into the 4th....their pressure is killing us right now and we seem a step late on rotations...got to play with more energy....Hedo and Nelson along with Anderson has to play better in the second half....Dwight can pick up his play as well

Return to Orlando Magic
