Although the NBA is in the midst of a lockout, trade rumors have still persisted and rumors such as a swap of Dwight Howard for Andrew Bynum would certainly shake up the league and bring some excitement.

Since a shortened season is looking very likely, the NBA will likely hope for one of these rumors to become reality as it could [...]

Okay, there has been a lot of speculation lately about what is going to happen with Dwight. As a hardcore Orlando Magic fan, it’s not easy to listen to all these rumors about your star and franchise player going to other places. However, I’m not letting it bother me because most of what we keep hearing from the media just makes no sense.

Earlier today on SportsCenter, Ric Bucher…

It seems that National Basketball Association Commissioner David Stern has finally silenced Orlando Magic’s coach Stan Van Gundy. The outspoken coach, who certainly does not mind ruffling a few feathers while offering his opinions, told the media on Friday that he has been told to stay quiet on his rising confrontation with Stern, which has witnessed personal prods from both…

I am out of class, and with spring break next week I have no real homework so I’m bored and decided to write this out for the hell of it. Comments welcome.

10.Dennis Scott (1990-1997)
Scott is the most prolific three point shooter in Orlando Magic history. His 981 threes made are the most in franchise history by a solid margin and his .403 three point shooting percentage is third in franchise history behind Cuttino Mobley and Courtney Lee,[...]

After two losses in a row, the Orlando Magic were desperate to return to winning ways, as they visited the twin cities.

However, Kevin Love and the Minnesota Timberwolves stood in their way. At the Target Centre on Saturday night, Wolves gave the Magic a run for their money. Trailing by as many as 15 before half time, [...]

Just a mere 3 days ago everyone was writing off the Magic. They were down 3-0 heading into game 4 in Boston and surely they were just going to lay down. The Magic did anything but that though. The former Eastern Conference Champs went into Boston and fought hard and came out with a win which forced a game 5 back in Orlando. Game 4 wasn’t pretty either. The Magic missed [...]

Sure they still run and gun as they did during the D’Antoni era. However, they actually do something they have long been criticized for not doing and that’s playing DEFENSE. Yes ladies and gentlemen, the Phoenix Suns play defense. They are actually being praised for it by the like of Gregg Poppovich.

As I was watching the predictions..

Sorry I”m late on this, but I’ve been on vacation these past few days lol.
Anyways, with two weeks left the race is tightening up and unless something crazy happens, our playoff teams seem to be locked up right now.
Here’s a look at my top ten teams for this week:

1. Cavs- Really is there any team playing better ball right now? Z is about to return as is Shaq. The only team that can beat the Cavs, are the Cavs. 2. Magic- Not quite at the same level as teh Cavs but not too far behind either. A matchup in the Eastern Conference finals [...]

We have all heard the talk for the past few seasons: Kobe and LeBron will face each other in the Finals someday. I know that seems like a dream matchup. I hope it’s going to happen. It almost happened last season, but the Cavaliers weren’t good enough for the underrated Orlando Magic. Now it comes [...]
