    nd it was over. The slipper kept fitting the Cinderella team.

    They had swept the Lakers in the regular season, and even made their record, at 32-8, better than the Lakers 31-8.

    No fluke team anymore. Just like that, the Magic is for real.

    Presto.

    Bah!!
    Lakers are a bunch of flopping crybaby pusses. Even Jack Nicholson gets in on thier act.:lol: Dwight Howard no doubt MVP of the league along with being the face of the NBA.

    Great all round game from our guys. Has Jammer Nelson become one of the top pg in the league or what?

    One of the biggest problems last year was turnovers imo .
    Looks like that's no longer a problem.

    Final thought...Courtney Lee...wow...all I can say.:yes:

    Jameer has arrived, finally. hes been consistant finally and showing that he is a championship caliber PG. he has also shown he can hit some very big shots.

    i gotta agree, Courtney Lee...wow. he played good defense on kobe all night, early kobe was making ridiculous shots on him. What a player he is, what a steal that late to...

    Back in the beginning of this current team, i chose to buy a jameer nelson jersey over dwight howard one. i knew dwight would be great. but i was really hoping for jameer to be the next great PG for orlando. he has such a nasty style of play. he and howard are my 2 favorite players in the league. howard is really a man amongst children. he plays like he is 9 feet tall. and he has so much fun. I love this team. 20 years strong as a Magic fan. Theres been some great teams along the way, but this is shaping up to be one of the best yet.

    I still dont know about Nelson. He had a clutch game for us last night... and has been scoring well lately...

    But he still seems like a SG trapped in a small PG's body to me...

    The Magic are becoming the team to beat this season. I love the fact that they beat the Lakers in L.A., they're not used to that out there.:up: Denver looks pretty good, but I think we can take 'em out there too. :woot:

    jameer is kind of a tweener, but hes getting the job done. hedo does a lot of ball handling and takes away some of the assists that jameer could be getting. it also feels good that we hit on a low draft pick in Lee. hes gonna be a very solid all around player. dude almost posterized odom last night

    That would have been sick if he got it down...


    I just feel that Nelson isnt the ultimate answer at PG. He will do for now, and isnt the most pressing need (PF)... but I think it needs to be addressed at some point. I wouldnt mind drafting one this year...

    jameer isnt going to relinquish his starting PG spot. the draft would only net us a back up at best. another solid PF would be nice, maybe we find one with the mle in the offseason

    I dont believe that at all... not when I see a guys like Chalmers, Rondo, and Stucky.

    We drafted Jameer... and he is a "starter". Why would it be impossible to get another starter at that position through the draft?

    And he doesnt have any say in whether he relinquishes his spot or not? If we get an upgrade at PG... put his *** on the bench.

    We are THE team to beat. I hope to see those seats filled in Orlando at the games. Those guys have earned it, they've played their hearts out. From last year to this one, I almost feel the same way I did about the Miami Dolphins at mid season. We've got a great team guys, with a great coach, and they're organized, let's see how far we can take it. Magic all the way this year.:up:

    LeBron is a virtual lock as long as Cleveland keeps up the pace, which they will. Any time Cleveland finishes with one of the better records in the league, LeBron will capture MVP. It's an unfortunate given, although he HAS earned it this year. He's the best player in basketball for the first time in his career, contrary to popular belief the past few seasons.

    Dwight Howard should finish about 3rd or 4th, though. Still a nice accomplishment to even be up there.

    8pm on TNT. That game can't come soon enough. Boston beat Miami tonight and will be looking to keep it going against our guys in Orlando, but I think the Magic can take them. We're a better team than the one that played in Boston back in early Dec.:up:

    Not a bad 1st qtr, 24-19 Boston. Lots of offensive rebounds, but I think we're trying too many 3 pointers. Still got a long way to go.:up:

    Boston wins 90-80. Magic were rusty it seems. Missing free throws, Turkoglu was in pain the whole game, Howard had 5 fouls and only 7 points at the start of the 4th quarter. I hope we get it together for the Heat next. I hate losing to New England teams.:sad:
