The Magic is currently firmly within their annual collapse. When will this end ?!?!?!?

When we get new ownership and a new front office.

Limping into the playoffs as a 7th/8th seed only to get demolished is a successful outcome for Martins. It works out great too because that’s John Hammond’s specialty

If the playoffs began now, we would see a Magic Vs. Raptors re-match. What are your thoughts?

We would get swept. Especially without Isaac. We just don't match up well with them and they are the deeper, more talented, better-coached team.

Who is your ideal 1st round match-up?

Philly or Miami

I really don't think there is one personally. We matchup pretty well with Philly, but without Isaac and a w/o a deadline move to get us some spacing it would still be a gentleman's sweep at best. Same with Miami who just has a deeper better-built roster with a star player.

We aren't the team who was firing on all cylinders and riding a wave of confidence going into the playoffs last year. That team I truly believe could have taken Philly in the first round to 6-7 games. With the injuries and expected regression we've seen this year we just aren't very good.

Not Milwaukee; thus going for the #7 seed is a targeted goal.

There is solid chance Magic won't hold 7th seed with return of Levert and Kyrie.

8th seed is where we might end up.... Chicago isn't far behind in 9th either.

I don't think Chicago wants to make playoffs at this point.
Lauri is allegedly out for a year, yet he said he feels fine ( fishy)
They are shopping Thad Young.
They are starting Luke Kornet :lol:

I think Isaac will suddenly be ready to play after the allstar break. They didn't receive the injured player exception for him.

Orlando has slid back to the #8 seed.

Lack of top end talent as usual. Same garbage Jan as usual.

More specifically, games 25-45 have been brutal for Orlando past Howard. This season is a touch delayed, but here we are.

The Bulls is now within three game of the Magic.

Sadly the Kyrie Irving news is Great news for the Magic to make these playoffs.
