    Fact , not many other rookies besides Emeka [​IMG] if you have to take 3..it'll be Okafor , Dwight and any of the other guys that had a good year..

    F/F Magic will make the playoffs and maybe go all the way to the semifinals this season? (remember Shaq,Payton and Pierce,and of course Pistons and Pacers)

    Fiction. Magic has a young team and hardly any veteranship. They'll reach the playoffs I believe. Hope they surprise me. [​IMG]

    F/F Jameer Nelson will exceed expectations and will likely be traded after this season.

    Fiction. The Magic got him as a steal in the draft and are looking to keep him. Unless we get some great players or a great deal in return I don't see it happening.

    F/F The Magic will make it to the finals in the next 5-10 Years

    Fact.

    The youth on the team will be probably glowing by then.

    Fact. Although I predict that he will be better than DA in a few more years.

    F/F: Everytime the Magic play the Rockets they will win.

    Fiction, there is no way that you are going to be able to beat a combination of T-Mac and Yao every time you play them, especially when you're the Magic. I don't think that there is a team out there right now that will be the Rockets every time they play them next season.

    Fact or Fiction: Steve Francis is a better fit for the Magic at the 2 spot instead of at point guard.

    Fact he should play 2 and Nelson should play point for a better running game.

    Fact or Fiction: Hill should start at SF.

    Fact: thats the position he's been playing his entire carrer and he was pretty darn good at it until he got injured.

    F/F: Dwight Howard says his game is a mix bewteen Kevin Garnett and Dirk Nowitzki. Do you think he'll live up to his own expectations (Rookie of the Year, MVP in a few years, getting his team to the Eastern Conference finals, leading his team to the top of their conference, etc.)

    Fiction. He's still a kid. Only 17/18. He has a lot of time left, no stress. He has barealy any experience now but I think he'll be a star in 5-10 years.

    F/F After the first Magic - Houston game T-mac will say something along these lines : "They were good. Defense has improved...I'm impressed."

    NOTE:

    After a discussion between the JBB moderators and administrators, we have decided to keep these 'fact or fiction' threads, as they are a handy way to discuss the team during the offseason in a light-hearted manner. Please <u>make sure</u> they stay on topic though, any off topic posts will be deleted immediately. In other words, if you don't want to talk about the team in question, don't post. Thanks and happy discussing!

    Regards,
    Supersonic

    Fact: Tmac will have the courtesy to compliment his former team even if he doesn't mean it.

    F/F Tmac will score 50 on the magic during one of their games in the preseason/offseason.

    Fiction-
    Tracy won't be able to put up those kind of numbers unless Yao has fouled out early. He will share the ball with YAo alot and unless Yao fouls out early there's no way he'll do this IMO.

    F/F
    Grant Hill is overrated with his final(so to speak)comeback

    Fact I think the magic's system will let him do that.

    F/F dwight will be a starter at the rookie allstar game.

    Fact: I don't see New Orleans or Boston putting up as much as a fight this time around and the Magic will get out of the first round.

    F/F: The Magic will finish at/better than a .600 record.

    Fact but barely IMO. We're a good and team and have the potential and youth to be great. We lack chemistry right now and in a year or two we should look more like a great team seeing what we do during those off seasons. It really could go either way IMO.

    F/F
    Francis can/will lead this team
