To RickB-Orlando: First finger as in Pointing!

To Orium: Joking. Only times I saw Dwight in public is at a restaraunt in Longwood/Lake Mary area eating and a couple times downtown near Church street. But, I was always across the street or inside a restaraunt seeing him through the glass. Oh hey, it is Dwight, far out, then back to food n beer.

I wouldn't put it past Dwight to flip-flop on the Lakers and re-sign in Orlando, but it'll be tough after he gets the booing of a lifetime this season. Probably just playing both sides of the fense in case things get ugly in LA this season.


Please tell me what you're on so that I can start taking this. To believe that this is even a plausible outcome for the Magic is just ridiculous.

No need to be a dick, bro. I was just speaking on Dwight's indecisive nature, not suggesting that it was realistic. Smarten up man.

can't help but be excited for our future and our current group of players. this year won't be easy but we get to watch young guys and should end with a top 3 pick. Nicholson,harkless,afflalo,vucevic,moore,oquinn were all targeted by hennigan, a product of the spurs and thunder.

I'm excited. I'm also laughing at people that say we'll be close to an 8 seed. We're bad.

Hardwood Paroxysm ‏@HPbasketball
Magic have unveiled their 'bold" new marketing strategy, titled "WE WILL." I will now accept your jokes and comments.

I see this turning into a joke pretty fast.

I doubt big market teams like the Knicks or Lakers would come up with cheesy propaganda like that instead of We Will Be Cheesy.

It's almost like the Magic are volunteering themselves as the next meme. Way too easy to make fun of that campaign.

That said, if done right, it can be a powerful slogan too.

I sure as hell hope it is not going to be used with "We Will, We Will . . . Rock You" in the arena. If it goes all Disney like that, the game has truly left Orlando for strictly entertainment value only.
