Is Europe a Threat to the NBA and the Magic?

Mon, 21 Jul 2008 22:30:17 +1900

Fri, 11 Jul 2008 18:14:49 +1900

Shooting guard Mickael Pietrus was asked if co-captain Dwight Howard had reached out to him yet and welcomed him to the Orlando Magic.

He was then released to clear the way for stars Tracy McGrady and Grant Hill . On Tuesday, the Magic brought him back to be a key part of their revitalization since the T-Mac/Hill days — and help all-star Dwight Howard flourish. "You never know how it's going to go in ...

We don’t pretend to be Arena football experts here at WFNY.

Let’s Make Some Magic Discussion

Thu, 10 Jul 2008 23:14:12 +1900

A couple of weeks ago, I claimed that J.J. Redick was stuck somewhere between a rock and a hard place. After the Orlando Magic added yet another guard to their roster (Mickael Pietrus), where does that leave our main man J.J. now?

This is the end ... there is no more

Sat, 12 Jul 2008 14:07:05 +1900

How much of a drag does five games in five days become? By Friday, virtually every NBA general manager had vacated the premises at the Orlando Pro Summer League.

9.5 years later, David Stern makes the summer fun

Fri, 11 Jul 2008 13:40:19 +1900

Thank you, David Stern, for creating the 1999 Collective Bargaining Agreement. Sure, it's not the one the NBA is currently working under, and it did sort of destroy the 1998-99 season (sort of?), but let's call it - that season was going to be rubbish anyway. While we're on the subject, Steve Aschburner came through with a must-read column on the labor impasse from ten years ago . ..
