  • 138. Suggs Extension; Season Predictions; Make it Magic or Tragic?

    22/10/2024 Duración: 01h47s

    We made it through preseason 1-2. The real deal starts Wednesday in Miami. Which means, this is our 2024-2025 Orlando Magic season predictions episode. We also finally got the news about Jalen Suggs’ contract extension. Happy New Year, Magic fans. Orlando will have more than 1.5 All-Stars? Orlando will have more than 1.5 All-Defense guys? Paolo makes an All-NBA Team? Magic will win more than 47.5 games? Orlando will have home court advantage in the first round of the playoffs? Orlando will win its first playoff series since 2010? All of that and more! #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language

  • 137. Iron Sharpens Iron

    17/10/2024 Duración: 30min

    We got through Hurricane Milton. Some more unscathed than others. Wendell Carter Jr. got his contract extension. Still waiting to see if Jalen Suggs gets his. And considering the Magic have had one preseason game canceled, and this final prep game against the Sixers coming up on Friday won’t have Joel Embiid or Paul George, it really feels like we haven’t had a true exhibition season. That’s where that ‘iron sharpen iron’ phrase gets thrown around. Because we’re hoping these internal Magic practices will be enough to have us ready opening night in Miami. Vince Carter got inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. All of that and more! #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language

  • 136. Pelicans and Hurricanes

    08/10/2024 Duración: 40min

    We’ve got Hurricane Milton approaching to heavily impact central Florida. For Orlando, this might be worse than Charley in 2004. This coming shortly after Helene wrecked the west coast of Florida, the Big Bend, Georgia and the western Carolinas. Orlando Magic Media Day was last Monday, got through a week of training camp healthy, and this afternoon the Magic were in New Orleans for the first of their 4 preseason games. Wendell Carter Jr. sprained his ankle. Jalen Suggs struggled at point guard. Anthony Black, Cole Anthony and the rest of the bench were very uplifting. Paolo Banchero is still looking like our star. All of that and more! #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language

  • 135. Training Camp Concerns

    29/09/2024 Duración: 45min

    Been away for over a month and a half. In that time: Germany lost the Olympic semifinal and bronze medal games, the NBA schedule dropped, there’s a new ‘Make It Magic’ team slogan, our new and bad city jersey was leaked, and we’ve signed some guys to Exhibit 10 training camp deals. The offseason is over. Media day is Monday September 30th, training camp is Tuesday October 1st. With expectations come some concerns entering this 2024-2025 Orlando Magic campaign. What does Franz Wagner’s 3-pointer look like with 6 weeks off? Can he continue to be better even if his 3 is still not falling? Can Moritz Wagner still be a consistent double digit scorer without Joe Ingles? Is Jalen Suggs going to get his contract extension? How will he play without it? Can he play PG? Will KCP’s shooting carry over to Orlando? Who are the 9th and 10th guys on the team? Will there be that moment in preseason, where we watch this team and go: ‘We’re going to be better than expected’? Who gets the two remaining 2-way spots? All of th

  • 134. Wagner Brothers into the Semifinals

    06/08/2024 Duración: 34min

    Germany got off to a rough start in their 2024 Paris Olympics quarterfinal matchup with Greece. They don’t win that game without Moritz Wagner’s bench energy and Franz Wagner’s great second half. Germany are on their way to Thursday’s semifinals to face FIBA Evan Fournier, Victor Wembanyama and a rejuvenated France team. All of that and more! #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language

  • 133. Wagner Brothers into the Olympic Quarterfinals

    04/08/2024 Duración: 40min

    We’re into the month of August. Magic training camp is September 30th, so we’re not too far away from that. Hopefully you’re watching and enjoying these Paris Olympics to help make the time pass. A lot of electric events already. We are of course on Wagner Watch. Germany went 3-0 in Group B play, taking down Japan, Brazil, and the hyped up hosts France. Franz Wagner is the second highest scorer behind only Giannis Antetokounmpo in this tournament so far. Germany are into the knockout stage now with a Tuesday quarterfinal meeting with Greece. A EuroBasket 2022 rematch. Tyus Jones, Anfernee Simons trade rumors, Chuma Okeke finds a new team, the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics, how Franz and Mo Wagner have performed so far. All of that and more! #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language

  • 132. Wagner Watch: Olympic Medal Hunting

    26/07/2024 Duración: 33min

    Wagner Watch 2024. Franz and Mo are again with the German men’s basketball national team. This time at the Paris Olympics. They’re our only current 2 Magic players participating in this two-week tourney. Two years ago Germany won bronze at EuroBasket in Germany. Last year they upset the U.S. on their way to winning gold in the Philippines at the World Cup. Now, they’re looking for more hardware at these summer Olympic games in France. All of that and more! #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language

  • 131. Weltman Stays Conservative; Pat Williams Passes Away

    23/07/2024 Duración: 01h32min

    A lot has happened over the past month. The Magic drafted Tristan da Silva who looked great at Vegas Summer League. Orlando signed Kentavious Caldwell-Pope from the Nuggets. We re-signed a lot of our own guys, but we sadly let Joe Ingles and Markelle Fultz go. Franz Wagner rightfully got a max rookie contract extension. With that said, Jeff Weltman has been very conservative this summer. We didn’t address two of our 3 needs (we’ve got more shooting, but we don’t have a point guard, and we don’t have a rim running shot blocking center or a better rebounder). There is valid concern that there’s a possibility the Magic take a step back. Other teams in the East got better, while it’s not certain that Orlando did as well. It’s likely, but it’s not certain that the Magic are better. Once Boston kept everyone to try and repeat as champs, it became evident that Jeff Weltman was probably going to slow-play this coming 2024-2025 season and depend on internal growth again. But we have flaws, and after winning 47 games

  • 130. Draft Week, One Week Until Free Agency

    24/06/2024 Duración: 37min

    It’s Draft week. June 26th and 27th. Then on June 30th free agency begins. As expected, there’s a lot of chatter but no certainty about what’s going to happen from an Orlando Magic perspective. Could Goga Bitadze be returning? Could the Magic actually use both of their draft picks? Klay Thompson, Paul George, Malik Monk, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Brook Lopez get discussed. All of that and more! #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language

  • 129. Magic Summer Trade & Free Agency Targets and Rumors

    16/06/2024 Duración: 01h54min

    This episode is dedicated to looking at the 29 other NBA teams’ rosters. Who the Magic have been linked to via rumors (newsflash: it’s already a lot, agents are using the Magic as negotiation leverage). Which players should be talked about more as a potential Orlando summer trade or free agency targets, and putting together realistic acquisition possibilities and how we want to fill up this 2024-2025 Magic roster. It’s time to go shopping. Klay Thompson, Paul George, Anfernee Simons, Malcolm Brogdon, Trae Young, Dejounte Murray, Nic Claxton, Mikal Bridges, Isaiah Hartenstein, Buddy Hield, Gary Trent Jr., Tyus Jones, are among the many players discussed. All of that and more! #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language

  • 128. Performance Review of the 2023-2024 Roster; Who Goes?

    06/06/2024 Duración: 01h18min

    We hope Magic fans have been able to decompress since the Magic’s 2023-2024 campaign concluded. This episode is about discussing all the players on the roster. How they did. Which players will be back next season? Who do we and don’t want back? Because to bring in players via trade and free agency, we’re going to have to say goodbye to some. All of that and more! #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language

  • 127. Magic Lose Game 7 in Cleveland; Awesome 35th Season Ends

    06/05/2024 Duración: 01h02min

    It was a very fun ride. But the ride ended Sunday as the Orlando Magic lost Game 7 in Cleveland. Yes the Magic were up 18 in the second period and it went bad from there with the Cavs making a historic comeback. But our young core got some massive experience moving forward. This 35th Magic season all-time is going to rank highly. Could easily argue it’s top-5, and that’s without winning a playoff series. Cleveland wanted us. They purposely tanked to get the Magic as their playoff matchup. They ended up getting a whole lot of us. They ended barely survived a 7-game series through hell. Paolo Banchero is a star. Franz Wagner and Jalen Suggs struggled shooting in Game 7 but that doesn’t define their seasons and impact in the years ahead. Donovan Mitchell showed again why he is one of the NBA’s best players. All of that and more! #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language

  • 126. Hocus Pocus; Magic Win to Force Game 7

    04/05/2024 Duración: 49min

    Powered by 20+ points each from Paolo Banchero, Franz Wagner, and Jalen Suggs, Orlando’s young core held off a 50-point deluge from Donovan Mitchell and defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers inside Kia Center 103-96 in Game 6. Mitchell apparently scored the Cavs’ final 22 points in the contest. It doesn’t matter because the Magic have forced a Game 7 up in Cleveland on Sunday at 1 pm on ABC. It’ll be the first ABC televised game for the franchise since 2012. Speaking of 2012, Dwight Howard made his first return to a Magic game as a spectator since he left the team in 2012. Time can heal a lot of wounds over the course of a dozen years. Game 7 preview. Rashard Lewis and Mike Miller were also there. Despite it being scary in the third and early fourth periods, the Magic found a way and continue its rapid growth of development with every playoff game that passes. The Magic had previously not experienced a Game 6 since 2011. Next the Magic will play in its fourth Game 7 in franchise history. All of that and more! #

  • 125. Magic Lose Cleveland Thriller, Trail Series 3-2; Game 6 Orlando Preview

    01/05/2024 Duración: 58min

    We finally got a close game in this series. Unfortunately, the Magic lost Game 5 in Cleveland 104-103 on Tuesday night. Paolo Banchero had another absurd superstar performance. Orlando is learning some great lessons from this Cavaliers series. Now it’s win or go home on Friday. The Magic are down 3-2 in the series. Bring it, Orlando. Why Jarrett Allen sitting out injured ended up helping Cleveland. Guard shooting struggles. Gary Harris’ injury. Game 6 preview. What adjustments Jamahl Mosley should make? Who starts in place of Gary Harris if he’s out? Cole Anthony’s effectiveness. All of that and more! #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language

  • 124. There’s a Spirit in Orlando; 2-2 as Magic Return to Cleveland for Game 5

    29/04/2024 Duración: 57min

    There is a spirit in Orlando, and Magic in our town. It’s a 2-2 series, as the Magic win these past two home games by 60+ points combined. And now the pressure is back on Cleveland to hold serve for Game 5. But this young Magic team is doing things it hasn’t done in over a dozen years. Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner are breaking NBA records one game at a time. And it’s been a very fun past few days. Now we’ll see if the Magic get greedy and take Game 5 from the Cavs. We can break Cleveland’s spirit if we push them past their mental limit. Jamahl Mosley finished second in NBA Coach of the Year voting. The Magic are the first team to hold their opponent to less than 100 PTS in 4 consecutive playoff games since the Raptors in 2019. It marks the first time in franchise history that Orlando has won consecutive playoff games by 20+ points. Also, the Magic became the first team in NBA History to trail a series 0-2 and then win Games 3 and 4 by a combined 60+ points. Previewing Game 5. All of that and more! #Le

  • 123. Magic Lose Game 2 in Cleveland; 0-2 Coming Back to Orlando

    23/04/2024 Duración: 50min

    The Orlando Magic lost Game 2 in Cleveland 96-86. Cavs hold a 2-0 series lead. Both losses had similar problems: bad first quarter starts, bad 3-point shooting, not enough guard scoring contributions, some shaky coaching player rotation choices, our guards leaving our bigs hanging out to dry defending the paint, and not being able to score enough in the paint or rebound. And yet both games Orlando still could’ve won. Donovan Mitchell and Jarrett Allen have been outstanding. On top of all of this, there are Cavs fans on social media and also inside RocketMortgage Fieldhouse calling the Wagner brothers Nazis. In no world is that OK or acceptable. One Cleveland fan got kicked out for spewing insults in Franz Wagner’s face, but it’s more than just one person doing the same. Basketball karma is going to come for Cleveland, it may or may not be the Magic that delivers it, but it’s going to hit something fierce. We’re back home in Orlando with 2 full days off to prepare for a massive Game 3 Thursday night. The s

  • 122. Magic Drop Game 1 in Cleveland

    21/04/2024 Duración: 49min

    The Orlando Magic dropped Game 1 of their Eastern Conference first round playoff series in Cleveland against the Cavaliers. There were some first game postseason jitters, but the Magic had chances to win the game. Just need to hit shots. Other than Paolo Banchero, Franz Wagner, and Moritz Wagner, the rest of Jamahl Mosley’s 10-man rotation didn’t do nearly enough offensively. The guards in particular. A lot of mistakes are very fixable. Also discussing the Wall Street fan watch party experience. There are some potential decisions the coaching staff have to make going into Game 2. Does someone else start in place of Gary Harris? Should Anthony Black play? Should Mosley shorten his rotation by excluding players like Markelle Fultz? Either way, with nerves out of the way, the Magic should be better offensively in Game 2. All of that and more! #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language

  • 121. Magic-Cavaliers Playoff Series Preview

    18/04/2024 Duración: 50min

    It’s here. Cleveland Cavaliers-Orlando Magic. Playoff series preview. We’re looking for our first series win since 2010. Cavs are looking to get to the second round for the first time since 2018. It’s the second time they’re facing each other ever in the postseason (2009 Eastern Conference Finals being the other). Reviewing the 2-2 regular season meetings between the two squads. Discussing various series questions: How healthy is Donovan Mitchell? Does Jonathan Isaac start? Can Franz Wagner hit 3s? Can Orlando score in the paint? What are the player rotations: Who is in/out? Is this Paolo Banchero’s coming out party? Can Jamahl Mosley bury his friend JB Bickerstaff? Final predictions. All of that and more! #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language

  • 120. Reviewing Season Predictions; Playoff Schedule Released

    17/04/2024 Duración: 39min

    As the Orlando Magic prepare for their first-round playoff series against the Cleveland Cavaliers, we look back on the October predictions we made for the 2023-2024 NBA regular season. Awards, playoffs or not, team MVP, trades, over/under guesses, and beyond. Orlando’s team slogan for the postseason is #EverybodyIn. The NBA finally released the Magic-Cavs playoff schedule. Despite the play-in performance, why Klay Thompson would be a better Magic addition than Malik Monk. Why it’s ridiculous that Team USA already finalized its 12-man roster for the Summer Olympics before the playoffs conclude. And how Paolo Banchero could still end up on that roster. All of that and more! #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language

  • 119. …and NEW Southeast Division Champions; Orlando Clinches 5th Seed; Magic 47-35

    15/04/2024 Duración: 56min

    The Orlando Magic are playoffs bound for the first time since 2020! The Magic concluded the 2023-2024 regular season 47-35. They will face the 4th seed Cleveland Cavaliers in the first round of the postseason. As the 5th seed, this is the highest playoff seed the Magic have been since 2011. Orlando now seeks to win its first playoff series since 2010, which is the franchise’s longest drought. It took game #82 to lock up a playoff spot, but it was well worth it considering how much the team struggled on their 3-game road trip in Houston, Milwaukee, and Philadelphia. Never underestimate the power of a Fan Appreciate Day. It’s the seventh time in team history the Magic have won the division title. Paolo Banchero concluded a historic sophomore NBA season becoming the youngest player in league history to lead a team in points, rebounds, and assists in a single season. Franz Wagner’s value continues to remain sky high considering how much the team struggled with him out. Head Coach Jamahl Mosley is relying on J
