Over under on Magic getting 2 Nationally televised games?

Before AG nearly won the dunk contest I would have gone under, now I'm not so sure.

I think we have 2 games scheduled. But, as the season goes on, I could see 2-3 more getting picked up by ESPN.

OKC vs Orl may be one of the national tv games. Orl vs Tor or Orl vs Ind may be another national tv game.

Later in the year, Jazz vs Orl could be a picked up game, and Hawks/Magic another one.

I'd be shocked if we have 2+ national games (ESPN/TNT)
let paid professionals do their job, don't you try and do it for them...

Quick scan through it and I like it.

Always changes during the season though. I remember a few stretches last year that I thought would be hard turned out to be pretty light and a few of the "easier" sections last year turned out to be tougher than expected.

Don't like the home opener to be against miami. Usually we play a team like the hornets or Washington were we can get a lot of fan fare for that first game. Against miami it won't happen

With Wade gone, doubt their bandwagon fans care enough to show up at Amway.

Nice.

Zero seemed a bit harsh.

I'm with you. I think they are going to have to add games because we are going to be much better than any one of these loser NBA Writers predicted. Kevin Pelton is going to be so sick of being trolled by me after the season.
