Now that O'Neal is on the Heat, do the Magic still have a shot at the division title, or playoffs? <font color="Blue"><font size="1"> Edited by Ice</font></font>

maybe Playoffs yes...title no. Heat, Pistons, Pacers cant forget them. Magic have a whole bunch of young talent right now but in 2-3 years I see the rookies getting better and Francis leading the way.
Of course we do. It ain't like Shaq is going to make much of a difference IMO. We're a great team and we're improving every chance we get. Can't no one man make that much difference as far as the playoffs IMO.
5 players can beat 1, the only other supporting player he has is wade and the over the jones, yea of course they will do good but the pacers and pistons will still be better prolly. As for the magic, i dont think they will be in the lottery for a while
I think Shaq is the exception. He can make any team into a contender because nobody can guard him. The problem with the Lakers was that they didn't give it ENOUGH to Shaq. Kobe always tried to be the hero. I don't see any problem with Wade giving the ball to shaq 50x's a night. Especially a now motivated Shaq. With that said, I still think we got a chance to win the division. It all depends if we pull that J-Rich/Dampier deal though.

I don't know why people dont want to see J-Rich on this team. It's gonna be a dunk fest with him. I bet he even does the off the backboard dunk just off T-Mac. PLus, with the hate toward Boozer screwing the Cavs, it'd be great to have the guy who bounced a ball off his head during the Rook All-Star game! Let's have a rally for, "J-Rich to the Magic!!" :dancepart
