Best ever PF to wear a Magic uniform?

What exactly was the story with his second stint here, when he was a 'cancer'?

I think it was a case of him being washed up. I've never once heard a report of Ho being a cancer. He partied like a rock star and was never a great influence on younger players, but he was never a problem to my knowledge.

Horace Grant, without question.

 

 

Another name worth mentioning who surprisingly hasn't been mentioned is Juwan Howard. It was a rough season he spent with us - 21 wins - but he played hard throughout the season and really endeared himself to me. Especially in light of T-Mac shutting it down.

I could be dreaming this but didn't they put a pair of goggles on the EPCOT ball when Ho first arrived.

 

Even if that is not true and I am crazy he is number 1.

Darko? Really? :headassplode:

It wasn't the Epcot ball, it was the water tower with mouse ears at Disney/MGM studios. But you're still crazy.

Juwan Howard has been able to go 15 and 7 just about anywhere he's played. But his numbers have never been indicative of gritty play, especially of the defensive end. His blocking ability=woeful.

Really. Yeah, he was a draft bust because he didn't put up Dwight numbers, but his play for us was pretty good. And he could block, unlike Juwan Howard.

 

NOTE: I'm only referring to when he played for the Magic, so prior to losing his mind, ripping jerseys and talking about savaging referees' mothers.

During his season with us, he was the lone bright spot.
