RIP 07-08 MAGIC WE GONE FISHIN!!



The worst part about the series is pretty funny because i thought with billups being out would be an advantage but the fact that went 1-2 with him out of lineup makes you feel even worse LOL


let's reflect on this year


good season, but i dont know why im tearin up like a girl :(

Big letdown to an otherwise solid season. The Magic's motto should be: Next year!

Right here, right now is getting tired.

I am happy with our team we just need Battie back and work Howard more his game is just easy to play against in a series ......he does the same things everytime ...but I am happy with a 50 game season even do we still dont get the respect I think we deserved in the league and the refs ,,,,

Ugh. This team is Dwights and he could not do his thing against Wallace. This is something that mother time will cure. Magic over the hump next year!

Board awards.

Survivor.

More threads about an international chase to bring an article of clothing back to an engaged girl.


I'm excited.
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.

I'm not as devastated as I thought. Good season for people predicting we wouldn't even make the playoffs.. just need to THINK more, get some big men.. new sg/bench.

Good season, not great.

Hopefully get an athletic slasher in the draft or a solid post player.

I hope everyone remembers the core of this team isn't going anywhere, we'll be back.

Half the price, maybe.
Also: half the games, one tenth of the outside game to complement Dwight that we were looking for so much.

get off shards back. He had to take play out of position ALL YEAR and took a backseat to HEHOG.


Get a real PF in the lineup and trade or move turk to the bench.

We should probably focus on the draft first. A lot of talent in that pool, and many holes can be filled.

We should buy another late first round pick so we could get a SG and a PF.
