Winning the last 5 of 6 and against teams we should be winning. Does this make us legit?
That is all.

Not yet.
We need to make at least 1 good trade before we can become truly legit.
Maybe JJ+Pat draft pick for Haslem + Arroyo, Dooling + draft pick for Andre Miller.

I think the Magic are close to being "back." I could see us making a deal, but not a blockbuster. If we could by some miracle trade for Udonis Haslem I'd be pretty happy. Dwight would get that pf he needs and Hedo could drop to the 2 spot.

At this point, only a major injury keeps the Magic from winning he South East. By definition, this is legitimacy!

We are definatly back to a more similar form as we were at the beginning of the season, looks like you cant keep a good team down [emphasis on team, including SVG coming up with the game plan].
I'd love to see that Haslem trade, I would be definatly on board that Miller trade [infact that would just be great for the team].

As a team we are The Magic again, the only thing different from years ago to right now are the fans... We honestly had one of the best crowd interaction back than. Fans used to be so into the games kind of like how the Warrior fans were in last years playoffs. Until the fans start to wake up its not ever going to feel the same again.
Must say though when I was watching the Pistons game on TV was exciting like no other the past few years. That is how the crowd should be every game.

Orlandos a 45-50 win team just like most here thought they would be. They have a huge hole at pf and sg and a good pg wouldn't hurt at all.

We have a young team learning how to be successful. You've got to expect a few more bad stretches of basketball before the season is over.
All in all, this has been a very good season so far for the Magic and us fans.

I think if the Magic keep playing like this, they're better than a 45-50 win team. Our record gets much much easier now.

I don't see how you can say that Hedo is not a SG. He played a lot of SG in his Kings days. He played some SG under Hill and if i remember correctly Jonny Davis used him at SG sometimes too. He can cause big time match up problems at the SG spot.

Hedo could play 2G in a very limited "match up" basis.
He really would not have the agility to play there for more than a couple of minutes.

With the shoddy defense we've been playing during this stretch, I'd have to say no we're not back.

we are going to be a 2nd round playoff team at the most this season imo.

You gotta crawl before you walk.
A second round appearance was my goal all along.
Next year would be the year of real expectations.
