Our personnel has been a huge reason for that happening. He snagged two coveted role players the last two years for the MLE in Bass and Pietrus. He pulled off a much needed trade for Rafer Alston last year when Jameer went down, whom we essentially got for cook. We got two contributing role players in JWill and Barnes last offseason for close to nothing. People got on him about drafting JJ, but look how he's improved. Gortat was a late second round pick and is now a coveted center in the league. And for you guys that have no clue. VC's expiring contract actually has a quite a bit of trade value. No GM's are perfect, there are tons of teams that would love to be in the Magic's position. we were ranked the 2nd best sports franchise for 09-10... FIRST in bang for the buck..... those of you hating are nothing but that. haters. Thank you! And none of them could have his Job and put this team in a better position. I cant stand ungrateful, always complaining fans. thats why a lot of players leave town!

We got to the finals with Turk on the team, and Carter did not show at all against Boston. I think we lost alot of talent but giving up Lee for an old has been that will never win a ring. Your wonderful TURK...chose to get out of Orlando. Yes we made it to the finals with him WHoopie!! BUt please, please tell me one thing he did in the finals? Turk was also on the Magic when Detriot kept kicking our butts. It was other pieces like Peaches and Alston that helped us get better. Everybody wants to blame Carter for us not making the finals that's not fair. And before Otis was GM, the magic had the worst record in the league. Magic fans are beyond ungrateful

These comments are why good players always want the first ticket out of orlando. Let the man have a camp, i assume some of you can team them how to play better?

Brooklyn Brawlers

AUHHMMMMM.....I just went to the warriors website and thats NOT the new logo

This was amazing, good and bad memories will live on forever for us lifelong fans. I remember the magic theme song that they used to play i think they retired it because nobody sang along/ lol / but its weird how i was so envious of other cities getting new arenas in the early 2000's but now its like wow, no more red wine seats

LOL I KNEW STAN LOOKED FAMILIAR FROM SOMETHING

NO!

I thought our lettering was unique and i liked the stars it kinda matched the word MAGIC more...but I guess this plain and blah text is much more "intimidating" forget that the lettering has been the same since the teams inception... Just have to deal wit it i mean it could be worse

quote: Originally posted by Debonair:.......yes and I wouldn't blame him for leaving either. otis's bad signings and tradings and stan's awful coaching is gonna get to this man and make him want to leave. RIGHT!...They only got us back to the ECF two years in a row, after we hadnt been out of the first round for about 12 years.... how awful.

I cant fathom why people keep saying Lewis needs to go. HEs not going anywhere, he played tremendously in the first two rounds and the reason why he didnt play well against boston is because the job that Nelson and carter was supposed to do which is get him open looks.....did not happen

At the end of the day....The home arena that i have grown to love and see the magic play in my entire life, did not go down in vain...Shard and Vince stepped up in game 5 and gave Amway arena a great farewell. but still....to vince carter.... Youre Fired!!!
