The Orlando Magic’s official Twitter account decided it would be a fun idea to ask their fans to describe the Magic’s offseason in three words. They wanted fans to tweet the team’s twitter account with the hashtag #2016in3words and the results were absolutely disastrous.
Unsurprisingly, many fans are none too pleased with the bizarre offseason the Magic have had thus far, considering they traded their shooting guard of the future and surrounded their two most valuable players remaining on the roster (Aaron Gordon and Nikola Vucevic) with three other front court players who will make a combined salary of $45 million this year.
Enjoy…

Any time you participate in any sort of social media engagement like this there will be trolls that will try and ruin the exercise for their own humor, but it is clear the Magic are a little tone deaf to the perception of their recent personnel moves in the eyes of their fan base.
Makes for great summer entertainment though…
