Memorable moments thread 

Post#1 » by p0peye » Sun Jan 28, 2018 4:00 pm

It is getting kinda hard to even read, let alone post, in most of threads on our board lately, so I decided to start a new one, where we all can post great moments in Magic history that are fond in our memory. It doesn't necessarily have to be game winners or such, just a moment you treasure.

I'll start with few of mines below. What's your favorite Magic moment?

This is my favorite, only because it's the biggest game I've ever been to.

The most memorable game I've attended in TD Waterhouse/Amway Arena/Amway Center



That Dwight against Spurs moment was probably the best moment I caught live on TV(broke the Spurs huge streak of winning a game when leading by 15+ points in a game) except another specific moment(circa 2000s) that somebody will probably bring up that I won't spoil for the content of this thread.

I hated those motha****'in Pistons(and Celtics) with a passion

I was at that game. Probably my favorite game I've ever been to. It still amazes me how smooth and easy T-Mac made everything look.

despite "easy" 4-1 , all games were close, 3 of 5 games were decided by margin of one shot.

I know this isn’t necessarily a game memory but the memorable “Chris Paul thread” had me up all night hitting refresh waiting for the woj bomb to drop.... it never did .

As far as games go the spurs vs magic game where we won on a out of bounds lob pass to Dwight was awesome!

I don't know where the video is but Hedo's turkish jig after his huge shot against the Celtics was pretty awesome. As was the shot itself.

Edit -- found it but the video of the dance itself is a bit lacking:

Under appreciated moment here but this 1st round series against the Sixers in 09 was epic. They were talking so much trash against us and were confident that they were going to push us to a game 7 since Dwight got himself suspended in game 5. What happened in game 6 was a thing of beauty with how we rose up to the challenge and played some of our best basketball. Then in the 3rd quarter, The Hammer happened...

Finding out we have 2 legit starting centers was epiphany. So many players developed right in that time: Dwight, Jameer, Gortat, JJ, Lee (starting and contributing to Finals team in his rookie season).
