Eons ago, I mentioned how Orlando Magic was equipped with the right personnel this ‘07-’08 regular season and were destined to reach the 46-win plateau, thus ensuring them of a spot in the Playoffs. In fact, I actually said a lot of other things about the Magic, and most of them were positive (A Magical Season and Where Magic Happens).
Well, now that their season is finally over after being crushed by the Pistons, here is a short overview of what the Magic have accomplished through the year, as well as other thoughts the team could and should mull over during the off-season.
The progression of Dwight Howard. Nobody questions the fact that D12 is the anchor that mans the team. However, there were still lots of kinks in his game such as a limited offensive repertoire and free throw shooting that prevented him from totally breaking free as one of the cornerstones of the game.
As the first few months of the season took course, it was clear that Howard is ready to break out and become a bona fide star. Leading the Magic to an impressive 16-4 starts with averages of 23 points and 15 boards, Howard appears to be applying for the role of the next Shaq. He obviously prepared himself and elevated his game to a different level, something that great players do. The only problem that Howard consistently encountered during the season was a lack of another big game that somewhat debilitated his abilities because opponents had him as their target in the paint (more on this later).

Ladies and gentlemen, I have found reason to watch RAW again. The story lines that they’ve been producing now are just that good. I think another JBL-Cena rivalry can only do good for the business. And the Shawn-Jericho match up seems real tempting. That rivalry would certainly be better than the Jericho-JBL flop they had a few weeks back.
But most of all, I’m watching RAW again because they’re finally giving an underrated superstar a chance to be on top. Finally, William Regal is now on top of the WWE food chain.
Yes, I know Regal isn’t your typical superstar. He’s English for crying out loud. The only British superstar that made it big would be the British Bulldog. And he wasn’t exactly on the top back then. But Regal has been in the company for a long time. And being simply a GM isn’t gonna cut it for me.
i should’ve been writing for the Shadowmoor Sealed event yet i was late for 20 minutes(which sucked..) coz i really hate being LATE!
Launch Party.I was expecting for a LIVE BAND,Dancers???,Beer,Freaks….,Balloons,Cake..err nevermind.
Anyways,as soon as i reached the place..i didnt expect the errr.yeah,akward silence. As if there was an unidentified object that invaded their sacred sanctuary..
in short,THE GEEKS paved way and gave me a grand red-carpet entrance..(NOT!haha)
i even heard one of them saying..”wohoo,a female just landed”.Of course,i made this stinging “i shall kill you with my cuteness” look towards the guy who said that.
I was really insisting to get to the SEALED EVENT Division but the organizers told me that the game’s on its 3rd round already. Read more »
