Official Game Thread: Magic Vs Lakers

Recommended Posts

Kobe out indefinitely with that hand injury he's had for years.

 

Edit: It's an ankle, not his hand. The announcers in the Thunder game started talking about his hand when the news broke, I was only paying half attention to the TV.

Nuggets fans are better than us, they're booing hard. I bet Woody Paige didn't tell them to cheer Melo.

 

To be fair, 60% of the people in the stands probably aren't Knicks fans.

Another reason Nuggets fans are better than us lol.

 

No.

 

The reason we have so many opposing fans at our games is because Orlando has a gigantic transplant population. It's not because our fans suck. The people who live here who didn't grow up as fans of another team are no different than any other team's fans.

 

If Denver didn't exist as a major city until the 70s, and had a warm climate that people like to move to when they get tired of putting up with snow, then they'd have just as many Knicks fans in their arena as we do. They aren't better fans.

Totally agree with Orlando being full of transplants. Florida, for that matter. It also seems like Orlando, unlike Miami, is a place people visit rather than move to.

 

That said, I've been a huge Magic fan for over 20 years and only been to Orlando twice (Disneyworld, natch). I do wish the home crowd was louder (or at least more pro-Magic), but...eh.

 

As for Denver: I'm guessing you haven't been to Denver/Colorado before. It's WAY sunny the majority of the year.

But people don't move there for the weather. They do that in Florida.

 

That's the point.

Actually, yes: they do. One of the reasons CO flipped blue in the last few elections is because of the influx of people from California.
