New Magic Fans Check-In Thread

[*Superman*]

^ I remember you said you got to fly on the plane before. That is awesome.

@Trav. Ah. You beat me by 5 years, so you remember more then me. I just remember watching a few games with my dad, but it was until later that I realized we were up 3-1 and needed one more win and blew it.

Your Intro to the Magic:
Ha! Must’ve been ’92 or ’93 and the whole basketball card fad was sweeping Australia. I remember the first card I pulled out my first ever pack was Nick Anderson with his flat top in a cool black and white jersey (all the sports teams I follow are black and white) so I said, yup, Orlando’s my team. Pretty sure that just happened to be the same year we drafted Shaq so not a bad time to hop on board!

Your Favorite Current Magician:
Has to be Dwight... this whole situation with him just sucks.

Your Favorite Former Magician:
T-mac or Penny... both unbelievable players and great to watch. I’ve been relieving that T-mac (when he was at Houston) 13pts in 33 secs clip a fair bit lately ... just crazy.

Positive Thoughts About Our Magic:
Hoping we get some nice pieces and a couple of first rounders out of this Dwight deal. It’s always exciting to have a couple of good rookies coming up and be able to see their development. Through all our ‘success’ over the past few years, that’s one thing that I’ve missed. Not that I’d trade being a contender to watch rookies!

I remembering watching that game live, it was something else. And TMac's dunk over Bradley..OMG.

Been a fan since Penny and Shaq. When Shaq left, I was devastated...Then when Tmac came here, he instantly became my favorite player, and will always be my favorite player.

My favorite current player is Redick.

Tmac of course.

My favorite memory was when Tmac passed to himself off the back board in an actual game. Loved it

I think it is safe to say that we all miss a explosive, game-changing SG. T-Mac was the last one we had. I hope we can get one through the draft after Dwight leaves. Maybe Rivers.

Can't say I like you, because you're a Yankee, but welcome anyway! Any Magic fans are ok in my book

Hello 2 all. I'm a long time magic fan living in New Jersey. Don't really have a current favorite player, just love the team. My favorite player was Nick Anderson #25 back in the day when players used to remain with one team. I like the Knicks only when they're not facing the magic. I am also a Jets fan and a Yankee fan.
