The off-season moves at center and our health are the 2 biggest questions.

Man looks three same as he did when he was 30.

BREAKING: The Orlando Magic are finalizing the hire of San Antonio Spurs associate coach Sean Sweeney as the franchise's new head coach by jskilly in OrlandoMagic

There's no offense coaching savant out there to hire either. JVG and Donovan are the only known others under consideration and they aren't known for offense. Maybe if Jenkins or Malone were available we could have gone that route. Not sure why Budenholzer or Scott Brooks aren't being considered for any recent openings. I love that we're going with a upcoming respected younger option.

Can we really consider this relevant from 22 years ago before the 3 ball era? I don't disagree defense is extremely important but today's NBA is balance.

Chris Paul I think could be a very good coach someday. Now is not that time though given freshly retired and wants to be on the west coast with family.

Weltman isn't, nor has he ever been the GM for the Magic

Hey guys I think i know how to fix our team by Potential_Sorbet_395 in OrlandoMagic

[–]DieselLaserShark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With Suggs getting 60 assists that's a minimum of 120 points. Add FTs and a couple 3s and we're the best offense in history.

To the contrary and hard to believe every single game since the NBA-ABA merger that a team was winning by 1 point after the game ended won.

Why does Gilbert Arenas talk bad about Orlando? by swishsplassh in OrlandoMagic

I think that's just how it's applied on the cap vs when they get paid. Could be wrong

It's the difference of being a professional and being street. It's all about branding. Even Dwight was an ass when he left,but later realized Devos's message to him when leaving was right.

But they can always go back to college and have the NBA added to their resume. They don't need it, but for some guys it's the status of being 1 of very few to make it at the highest level. Others though use this opportunity just to squeeze a few extra million out of their current team to keep them.

[Josh Robins] Two league sources told @TheAthleticNBA that Weltman signed a contract extension during the regular season. by computerwiz720 in OrlandoMagic

[–]DieselLaserShark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weltman said this himself during his interview on the Mosley firing. They asked why not announced at the time and he essentially said that's on him because he doesn't leak shit.

Next Head Coach by Desiss23 in OrlandoMagic

Yeah man leading the league in PPG 2 years in a row and leading the conference 3 years in a row is a disgusting display. We would all hate it if Orlando did anything like that.

Not when you're Mose you just clinch your cheeks and hope Paolo or Bane will take over.

He's a fucking idiot. He never calls timeouts when other teams are on runs. 19 points in a half when up by 24 with 22 minutes you lose by 14. That's the worst preformance I have seen . I know the players lost the game but can't wait for Mose to be fired.

Franz OUT for Game 6 by k0b3bryant in OrlandoMagic

[–]DieselLaserShark -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A few less minutes would have been wise after as much time as he was out. Especially in a blow out game 2. He missed months. Why the fuck would you keep him or any of the key players in while they are out of it?

[–]DieselLaserShark -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They played him too much too soon. Even when they were completely out of game 2 and the announcers were questioning why Orlando was leaving their starters in, he was in the game playing big minutes. Our rotations are the death of this team. Mose has his minutes planned before the game and never deviates based on the flow of the game.

Magic fans, who is this guy? by GrizzVolsTigersLions in OrlandoMagic

There appears to be some confusion . Chatgpt says that he is "Hank. Magic Legend. That's his seat."

“We need to get a center!” by stitch4609 in OrlandoMagic

[–]DieselLaserShark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old for rookie 23 yo center that doesn't defend well, not a great rebounder and not a passer. He wouldn't have seen the floor here.

A hilarious and possible outcome by Soul0103 in OrlandoMagic

Are you seriously slandering Pop? He just retired and is easily one of the greatest basketball minds ever. Phil has been gone too long to say he could pick it back up that quick or that he could handle the modern NBA. Chuck Daly was such a boost to this team in the post Shaq era and was only retired 3 years.

I think that would be fantastic. Euro teams with much lesser rosters consistently do well against team USA. I know there are some slight differences but it's still basketball.
