The team needs to shave their beards. It's been nothing but bad mojo!

I find it interesting and a bit incredulous that Bill Ingram is basing the assumption that JJ is the player whom Andre Miller was referring to based on "his twitter account?!!" Has it even been confirmed that the Twitter account is indeed JJ's and not some poser? What ever happened to checking and confirming information before making assumptions?

Any of Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child books, but especially the Pendergast series.

Just wanted you to know you aren't alone. Many people here feel the same way they just don't want to get the Redick crew stirred up. They know, like myself it's a deadend street. They J.J. possee is relentless. They are entertaining for the board, I'll give'em that. I've mentioned this before that I needed a break from the boards due to all the p***ing match back & forth, but obviously I didn't heed my own advice. Why lump all JJ fans as "JJ posse" whom you have no problems instigating heated "debates" (and I say that mildly because there really has been no debates in regards to him on this board. It basically comes down to the "he sucks" vs "he doesn't")? There ares fans who happens to be Magic fans & like JJ as well and want him to do well since he is part of the team. Then they are some who happened to be JJ fans and became fans of the Magic. I didn't realize it was exclusive to be or the other and not both.

It's Junkie verses the Redick possee, strap on your boots and get ready to ride!! This is just getting out of hand. If you feel like continuing the me vs Redick possee shtick, by all means go right ahead, it's your right. You have your opinion, they have theirs. This outward baiting gets really old really fast! I used to enjoy the boards for good debates & info on the Magic, in which I learn something new every time cause although I enjoy basketball, I don't know a lot about it in terms of x's and o's (which I have learned from reading many informative posts). Maybe, it's time for me to stop reading this board because there's no enjoyment anymore in reading the majority of the posts.

quote: Originally posted by bravlady:The jury's still out on this game. JJ had 4 PFs, for ticky tack fouls. With the exception of the PFs, he played pretty good defense. The China Team is pretty scrappy. He had some impressive assists and had two good shots that went in and popped out. By the time he found any rhythm, it was into garbage time. I thought he had gotten hurt in the Cavs game but couldn't confirm. Carlos is interviewing, Augustine had a good game, and as always plays with intensity. Kruger reminds me of Diener and will probably be the odd man out. I agree, let's get JJ back on home soil so he can resume the upward play. Per Denton, he sprained his ankle in the Cavs game. I watched the game, and can't recall him being injured.

I hope JJ finds his shot when he gets back home!

Nelson, JJ, Bogans, Hedo & Dwight starting http://forums.floridatoday.com/viewtopic.php?t=53808 quote: SHANGHAI - Orlando Magic coach Stan Van Gundy continues to insist that only Dwight Howard and Rashard Lewis have guaranteed starting spots, but it's looking more and more certain that Jameer Nelson, J.J. Redick and Hedo Turkoglu will join them in the lineup on opening night. Lewis won't play Wednesday in the China Games opener against the Cleveland Cavaliers, but the rest of the projected starting lineup will be in place. Nelson and Redick have meshed extremely well in the backcourt _ Jameer as more of a turnover-free distributor and J.J. as a stellar shooter and a competitive defender.

I think it's because Indiana retired the #34 in honor of Mel Daniels.

Not entirely a mohawk...more like a fohawk.
