<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">5) Orlando Magic While some feel that drafting Darko Milicic was one of Joe Dumars?s biggest mistakes, trading him may end up being a worse one. With Darko?s stellar development when given minutes by the Magic, they may have scored an ideal candidate for serving as Dwight Howard?s future frontcourt running mate. Heck, Milicic could one day be at Howard?s level if his development was any indication. The Magic?s talent does not stop at its frontcourt, with Grant Hill?s massive expiring contract coming off the books after this coming season, the drafting of marksman Wooden Award winner J.J. Redick and the development of former Wooden Award winner point guard Jameer Nelson, the Magic?s future is as bright as any. </div> http://realgm.com/src_feature/620/20060706...ms_on_the_rise/
It's great for the to be mentioning us but I think putting us at #5 is an insult. We are better than the Hornets, Bobcats, and most of all the Raptors. We should be #2 on that list behind the Bulls and even that is arguable. Did this writer see our late season run that almost pushed us into the playoffs? Teams like the Bobcats, Hornets, and Raptors don't have the chemistry we do either because the reason they are ahead of us is because of offseason players they have brought in. I like the idea for the article but we should definently be higher. This is just an example of how Dwight Howard doesn't get enough respect.
Yea, well I guess they are looking from that fact that there is no where to go but up for the Raptors and Bobcats... I do feel as if we got shafted, I mean the Bulls did well this offseason and deserve the one spot and Raptors also mixed it up so I see them doing good things in the future. But I do not see the Raptors or Bobcats anywhere near us next season. Hornets are going to be a very good team, I just dont see that out of the Raptors and Bobcats just yet.

Raptors and Bobcats should improve at least 10-15 games next year, while we'll probably improve 7-10.
I think Gators is right.. And I don't see how the Bobcats or Raptors can get any worse than they did last year.
