Talking the Talk…The Magic Week in Review
Posted on 28 Feb 2011 by Warren Shaw.
“We’ve been talking for a long time—all we seem to do is talk…You guys know what the difference is. You watch the games. If guys don’t want to play, they need to sit down. We can’t just have guys or anybody out there not playing hard. We’re professional athletes. This is what we do for a living. If you can’t go out there and go hard for two hours, then you shouldn’t be pla...

Posted on 17 Feb 2011 by Warren Shaw.
Time is of the essence in Orlando. The Magic head into the break with a record of 36-21 good for 4th place in the Eastern Conference. The excuse of not having enough time to gel has since passed and this Orlando Magic team needs to realize its full potential. The schedule in terms of competition is a little more favorable with only 11 of the 25 remaining games against opponents with records cur...

A Memo to the Elite
Posted on 14 Feb 2011 by Warren Shaw.
On the eve of Valentine's Day there was no love lost between the Los Angeles Lakers and Orlando Magic. It almost seems like a decade has past since these two teams met in the 2009 NBA Finals. The Magic are a completely different team while the Lakers by and large remain the same. While L.A. vs. Orlando doesn't scream rivalry, this game clearly meant a great deal to the Magic.Orlando saught ano...

Steady Clippin
Posted on 8 Feb 2011 by Warren Shaw.
Many times throughout an NBA season the final score of game does not convey the full story. This ladies and gentleman was one of those times. Orlando defeated the traveling road show that is Blake Griffin and the Los Angeles Clippers 101-85 on Tuesday night, but it was the 35-20 4th quarter that made the difference for the Magic men. Both teams struggled throughout committing 16 turnovers each...

Statement made
Posted on 4 Feb 2011 by Warren Shaw.
“Can just sit here and say it's any old game, because it's not.” Those were the words of Lebron James Tuesday night in reference to the upcoming game against instate rival Orlando. His words proved to be prophetic. James had a NBA season high 51 points combined with 11 assists, and 8 rebounds to send the Magic to a disappointing 104-100 loss at home. A masterful performance by one ...

Magic comeback falls short in Memphis
Posted on 1 Feb 2011 by Warren Shaw.
The Orlando Magic were fresh off their drubbing of the Cavaliers Sunday night to face a suddenly hot Memphis Grizzlies team in the land of Elvis Monday night. Watching this game from start to finish showed how good Orlando can be when they play defense and how bad they can be when they don't. The Magic cut a 12 point deficit in the fourth quarter to tie the game at 96-96 but ultimately came u...

Bullied
Posted on 29 Jan 2011 by Warren Shaw.
It happened again. The Orlando Magic once again failed to back Dwight Howard up with a consistent second scoring option and fell to the Chicago Bulls 99-90. Howard was masterful with a season high 40 points coupled with 15 rebounds. He did everything in his power to keep the team within shouting distance making 14-20 from the floor and a very respectable 12-16 from the free throw line. He was h...

Friend turned Foe
Posted on 26 Jan 2011 by Warren Shaw.
On Monday night the Magic were bested by an old friend turned foe. Tracy McGrady jumped into the “hot tub time machine” showing flashes of his former self with a 20pt, 7reb, and 5ast performance in Detroit's 103-96 victory over Orlando. Most of his damage was done in the first half (17pts), and Quentin Richardson wiped the dust of his sneakers to provide a defensive spark that helpe...

On the offensive
Posted on 23 Jan 2011 by Warren Shaw.
For all intense and purposes the last two games for the Orlando Magic have been snoozers, much to the chagrin of the Toronto Raptors and Houston Rockets who were the Magic opponents. The team has exhibited masterful offensive ball movement and chemistry finally showing team balance and consistency…at least for these two games. On Friday the Toronto Raptors came to Orlando in the midst of ...

Power Plays
Posted on 20 Jan 2011 by Warren Shaw.
Sometimes its better to be lucky than good. In a somewhat unexpected battle with the Philadelphia 76′ers the Orlando Magic escaped with a 99-98 victory in OT keyed by two wild & rare 4 point plays. This was a game that once again showed the team's resilient nature because quite frankly many times throughout the game they looked dead in the water. In the closing minute of regulation...

Close and not that far
Posted on 14 Jan 2011 by Warren Shaw.
After nearly setting a franchise record 10 straight wins the Magic have suffered two straight losses on the road. On Wednesday the team lost in OT to the Hornets 92-89. On the second night of a back to back on Thursday they fell to the Thunder 125-124. The Magic remain a good team still finding its way. Good but not elite. There are signs that indicate the team is moving in the right direction ...
