OT because this game is boring...So this is the view from the second floor of my house. That is one half my backyard, the moose in the picture charged me and my dog down the street yesterday afternoon. I know some will take pleasure in that...Jerks. So whenever you complain about being in Orlando..remember. You dont live in Alaska.


I guess I'll save the comments like "I washed my truck when I got home" "wearing shorts and a t-shirt"

LOL

:lol:

It's so overrated here. Cant wait to get back to Orlando.

I don't understand why Wafer wasn't playing until an "injury" He is attacking and making plays....It seems like he can get by almost anybody with that first step....Why? Why wasn't he playing before?

Wafer isn't overpaid like Jrich.

It's called "We commited to Jrich so play him" syndrome. If the issue is defense, how bad could he be compared to Jrich? Lets be honest here Stan.

Only Hedo would get himself a mismatch against a guy 6 inches shorter and 30lbs lighter and not manage to get any closer to the basket before forcing a fadeway.

So the sixers are playing Dwight single covered... so it renders the rest of our team as spot up shooters... can we stop entry passing it and start penetrating into the lane and breaking down their D that way? Is that so hard to do? If the Inside-out isn't working... well switch it up. Why do we have to force feed Dwight these possessions in the low-block when he's clearly not good at passing out and he's missing (badly) on his hook shots... or turning it over when he makes his move.

Just focus on defending, blocking, running the floor, and rebounding/putbacks Dwight... and let the other teammates actually move with and without the ball.

Because this is the Orlando Dwight Howard's, not the Orlando Magic. We have become Lebron's Cavs, except our superstar has absolutely no talent and does not create for other players.

Dwight is just coasting. We should sit him on the bench and the whole team will play harder.

I'm sick of our players being out-muscled and then turning to the refs for help. Grow a pair.

I wish the Magic would get back to their F'N Roots... and play HARD again.

Damn Anderson deserved that to go. He is a man on the offensive glass.
