I'm setting this up a few days early, I know, but damnit I'm ready for some actual Magic basketball!

With a fresh subscription to NBA League Pass set up, I'm ready for (preseason) Game 1.

As I suspect is the case for most here, I will be most excited to see Isaac. But seeing improved shooting from Gordon and a pulse from Mario would also make me quite happy.

What are you guys most looking forward to?

I said it in another thread but I'm pretty sure I saw that Fox Sports has an affiliate doing this game so there should be streams out there. Better than the jumbotron cam.

Might not even get that. We played in Memphis for the first preseaon game last year, too... wasn't on TV and no jumbo feed. Instead the magic posted a handful of vines. Get your radios ready....

I feel bad for Dennis Newman. The Magic have forced the guy to do road games by himself.

Not sure if I was writing in invisible ink earlier but Fox Sports Southeast is carrying the game (http://www.foxsports.com/nba/memphis-grizzlies-team-schedule) so no jumbotron feed or radio necessary.

Kinda sucks, but he's a pro. It's better than them forcing him *not* to do road games.

It sucks that this one will not be on TV.

Apparently, 2 of The Magic's 6 games will be on local TV.

We just got to get through not seeing 4 games over 2 weeks.

It still feels good that the preseason is here.

I've missed basketball so much and always get a kick on posting in the game threads for Magic basketball. Can't wait for Monday! I am very excited about this team going into this season. Chemistry already looks way better and the roster has some very solid depth to it now. Loved what Hammond and Weltman were able to do with this roster in free agency. My boy Juice is going thrive here, mark my words. His game did not fit the Spurs system and yet he was solid when his number was called. Hopefully his 3pt % will climb back to where it was his rookie year.

Hope we beat the snot out of Memphis, don't care that it is preseason...LET'S GET IT!!!

I think j-ragg is wearing camouflage. That's why they don't see him. My spider-sense picks him up instantly, though.

My League pass shows that the game is streamable. So I believe J-Ragg is correct.
