The NBA season is here for the Orlando Magic. And there is one big question: Will they make the Playoffs? We answer that question in our roundtable.
The Orlando Magic season is here.
Today the Magic embark on their 28th season of basketball, taking on the Miami Heat to start the 2017 season.
It is a season of extreme pressure and expectation. The Magic want to make the Playoffs after a four-year absence. They made the moves this summer to get there.
Everyone — well, almost everyone — is 0-0 as the season starts. There is endless possibility to come in the next six months as the 82-game schedule winds its way. Every goal is in front of us.
For the Magic the goal is simple — to make the Playoffs. No one seems to have a good handle on whether the Magic can actually do this — the growing consensus is that they will not. There are just too many questions.
But nobody is willing to completely close that door. Nobody is willing to completely write this team off. They just are not ready to pull the trigger on them.
The Magic have plenty of questions to answer. And while the preseason provided some answers, it could not provide all of them. When the games count, we really learn what kind of team this is and exactly who they can be.
With the season starting Wednesday, it was time to gather the Orlando Magic Daily staff together and begin predicting the what will happen during the 2017 season. In the following roundtable, we discuss who will make the Playoffs, where the Magic will finish, who will be the team’s MVP and who wins it all.
