That three being Jameer, Milicic and Dwight. All combined for 55pts.

Whats their record going to be next year? I'm thinking 45 or more wins.

Milicic should start next year and Dwight will be even better.

This teams going to be fun to watch next year.

Maybe the Suns could lend us Steve Nash. Dwight's ppg would probably be in the 30s.

3 players combining for 55 points is a mere 18.7 ppg. That's not that big of a deal. It is impressive, but until they average that, it's not incredible. I'm sure there are threesomes that do produce better numbers. Since I watch the Jazz, I can give you a stat line between Okur, Boozer and Kirilenko in a game against the Suns.

http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/boxscore?gid=2006032126

69 pts, 42 rbs, 9 asts, 7 blocks.

If you want to do a point guard, two forward equal comparison, then remove Okur and add Williams.

62 pts, 31 rbs, 16 assts, 6 blocks.

And before you go off on saying it's the Suns, the same point guard and two forward trio scored 54 against the Spurs in their last meeting, so again, one stat line means nothing.
It's one stat line. I don't think you can look at that one stat line and say, wow, the Jazz should win 50 games next year just like you can't say the Magic are going to win 45.

[rocketeer]

it's not about the stat line. it's about the players. nelson, darko, and howard forms a pretty nice core that should be easy to put other players around.

[quench23]

personally i had the orlando magic wining 40+ wins this year, and im sure they'll get 45 next year. plus they have a ALOT of cap space in 06 or 07... so there you go.

if they go for a player like kirk or bosh... they'll own

Didn't Nash say he would start his franchise with Dwight? That's really something.

Yea.

They will probably dominate like Golden State di this year...lol.

The NBA is an entirely different animal when teams take you seriously and nobody is taking the Magic seriously this year and because they are still playing hard they are winning. It is the reason why Chicago has taken a step back this season and other teams that seem poised to improve stay the same or get worse recordwise. You can win 30-35 games in the NBA simply by coming to play each and every night.

Next season they are going to have to be a lot more talented because they will be projected to be a playoff team and teams will take them seriously.

i was about to come mention golden state.


another factor is that when you get that new roster and everyone is excited to play together, your not playing for anything, you get to play loose, etc. playing a full 82 games and fighting for a playoff spot is a whole different animal.

[Dee-Zy]

and I meant this in a positive way, I am yet to see Darko get a double double.


I'm actually quite surprised he hasn't had one yet. (Or has he?)

The Magic could blossom, as can any young team w/ talent. But I'd be wary of drawing conclusions on the next season based on the end of the previous one. Time and time again, the two have little to do w/ each other.
