Orlando Magic

January 13, 2011 – The Hoop Doctors Since the big trades that brought in Gilbert Arenas, J-Rich, and Hedo Turkoglu to the Magic they have been rolling. This week they had another strong week and enough highlights to warrant a nice mix for the Magic fans. Enjoy, and get after it Redick, young fella…. [...]

January 11, 2011 – Joshua Sexton Make no mistake, since Hedo Turkoglu left the Orlando Magic in the Summer of 2009 the team has missed his unique talents. What was not as obvious was the way Turkoglu has missed the Magic. After leading the team to the Finals in 2009, Turkoglu signed a contract with [...]

January 5, 2011 – Allen Moll Maybe Orlando Magic coach Stan Van Gundy is finally realizing that his man in the middle, Dwight Howard, is coming dangerously close to receiving a one game suspension for his alarmingly ascending total of technical fouls committed? Or maybe, just maybe, the NBA’s biggest drama queen when it comes [...]

December 28, 2010 – THD Rumor Patrol Shaquille O’Neal has been one of the most difficult players to officiate his entire career due to his sheer size and power. He is so much bigger than anyone else on the court they seemingly bounce off him making it hard for refs to determine who is being [...]

December 21, 2010 – Kevin Burke Last summer before the season began, Dwight Howard told The Hoop Doctors that despite the Miami Heat forming an Eastern Conference All-Star squad, and the Boston Celtics adding size on their front line, he felt as if his Orlando Magic were the best team in the East.

We are now hearing that the deal is done and the trade will go through as originally described. It shouldn’t be [...]

December 8, 2010 – Allen Moll To the average fan, getting enough vertical to even think about dunking a basketball is a feat that most of us will never accomplish. Even those of us fortunate enough to have played for our high school or collegiate squads have anywhere near the ups of today’s NBA stars who [...]

November 30, 2010 – THD Rumor Patrol Given that they both are either 7′ tall or close to it (Howard is 6’11”), Dirk Nowitzki and Dwight Howard play the game in a polar opposite fashion. Dirk Nowitzki likes to shoot from long range and mix up his game with catch and shoot plays, back to [...]

November 3, 2010 – THD Rumor Patrol This whole postponement due to ‘debris’ I find is more than a little ironic given Orlando Magic big man Marcin Gortat’s statements this week about the cleanliness of New York City…. Following last night’s Rangers game, during overnight maintenance of Madison Square Garden, which included cleaning asbestos-related materials [...]

November 1, 2010 – Dr. Anklesnap Orlando Magic’s back up big man Marcin Gortat had some choice words for residents of the Big Apple about the cleanliness of their city. The Orlando Magic are set to play the New York Knicks in NY on Tuesday night, and Marcin Gortat hopes his stay will be quite [...]
