First name? Mitchell

Hometown? Originally from Lincoln, UK, now residing in Toronto.

What made you become a Magic fan? Folks took me to Florida when I was a kid, during Shaq's rookie season. Magic fever was high, and I got sucked into it.

Favorite Magic players? I'd struggle to pick a favourite on this current team. Lots of favourites.

Magic player who frustrates you the most? Have to agree with Cookie - his skillset is good enough to make him Shard-lite, but unfortunately he himself is far from light. If he was in shape, his combination of guard skills and a forward's body could make him a valuable Magic player.

If you could change one thing about the Magic what would it be? I'll assume moving them to Toronto so I can go to every game is out of the question? I like the idea of retiring a couple of numbers. And I agree with RawLew - Anderson, Armstrong and Outlaw should definitely be at the top of the list.

If you could change one thing about the NBA what would it be? Get some rule changes implemented to stop unsportsmanlike play such as flopping. Should be an automatic technical.

Who are some of you all-time fav NBA players? Bo Outlaw, Darrell Armstrong, Grant Hill, Hakeem Olajuwon, Tim Duncan, pre-lard Shawn Kemp, pre-ego Ben Wallace.

Fav Magic moment/game? Hmmm. Being a kid in the UK for the original 'glory' years, I'd have to pick something more recent. The first round of last year's playoffs, Turk and Shard respectively hitting buzzer beating game winners against Boston and Detroit last year, Dwight's inbounds play buzzer beater against SAS, or the fastbreak alley-oop against Boston. All have had me jumping out of my seat. Far too many more to mention.

Edit: Should definitely put the C-Lee coast to coast dunk vs Toronto last week near the top of the list. My first Magic game since moving out here, in an arena where we are far from popular, and the vast majority of people were out of their seats for that one.

Which Magic player (current or former) does your own game most resemble? Bo Outlaw. I can't shoot for s**t, but I can do a little bit of everything else, and I work hard :D

Explain your username? Do I have to insult your intelligence?

Fav Magic Dancer? Megan's pretty hot.

What other sport teams to you follow closely? Lincoln City, Nottingham Panthers, Notts CCC, Toronto Blue Jays.

Fav movies? Far too many to list them all, my DVD collection is currently in four-digits. But a few are: Shogun Assassin, Zatoichi, The Descent, Dog Soldiers, 28 Days Later, Dead Man's Shoes, Monty Python Collection, Fight Club, Leon, Anchorman, Dodgeball, Old School, Zoolander, Welcome to Collinwood, Bubb Ho Tep, Fargo, The Big Lebowski, Grosse Point Blank, Pulp Fiction, Goodfellas, Casino, Bourne Trilogy, Shaun of the Dead (best film ever), Hot Fuzz, any Kevin Smith aside from Jersey Girl, Full Metal Jacket, Kind Hearts and Coronets, Enduring Love, Cape Fear, Beetlejuice.

Fav Bands/artists? Again, a lot to list, but here's a few: Elbow, Pulp, Kings of Leon, Arctic Monkeys, Noisettes, Gogol Bordello, D'Angelo, Flaming Lips, David Bowie, the Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Outkast, Public Enemy, Prince, Foo Fighters, Supergrass, The Cribs, 22-20s, Wolfmother, The Cure, Depeche Mode, Bloc Party, Primal Scream, Basement Jaxx.

Most hated player in the NBA? Dunno really. Wouldn't say there are any that I outright hate, although I have a strong dislike for any big man who hits the deck at the first sign of physical contact - Anderson Varejao, Pau Gasol et al.

Hobbies? Hanging out with my wife and friends, working out, playing sports, playing my guitar, reading, going to the movies, all that fun stuff.
