Will the Magic make the playoffs?

Point blank, with the team they have now, will they make the playoffs?

Pistons, Pacers, Heat, Bucks, Knicks, Cavs, 76ers all seem like considerably better candidates.

I think the Magic are in the class with the Bulls, Wizards, Celtics and Raptors who will at best be a 7th or 8th seed, and could possibly be at the bottom of the east.

Thats just me though, post your opinions.

Whens the last time francis/cato/mobely missed the playoffs?


The team is solid at all positions..there is no reason why they should miss the playoffs..

they have one of the best pg's in the league in Francis

an underrated sg in mobely

cato (a solid center good in the east)

sf (glu/garrity/hill)

pf gooden/dwight


Lets break it down a bit

CENTER: Cato/Declerq
PF: Gooden/Dwight
SF: Hill/Glu/Garrity
SG: Mobely/Deshawn
PG: Franchise/Nelson


If you take anyone out and replace them with another player on the roster...the team will still be good or decent.

Yes, I think the only teams as of right now, that are significantly better than the Magic are the Pistons, Pacers, Nets(with or without KMart), and Heat.

I think they can go anywhere from 5-8, especially with the Hawks, Bobcats, and Wizards in their division. I think this team finishes in the 7th seed. I think Stevie gets back to his old numbers as well.

as in crispy to the 3rd degree.

Magic will make the playoffs, but if they face the Knicks there they will get burned.

Am I the only person who has seen Gooden play? He sucks.

No, the Magic are in the company of Atlanta and Charlotte as the worst teams in the east, maybe the nba.

Take a look at the rosters of those three teams and think about what you just said. It doesn't matter that you don't like Gooden, he probably won't be on the team opening day. This team will be a 4-8 seed. If Shaq gets injured, they may even win their crappy division.
