The Orlando Magic have faced lineup and rotation questions so far this season. The Orlando Magic Daily staff too kits turn trying to answer these questions.

The Orlando Magic did not waste time creating controversy and stirring debate among its fan base.

Forgetting the team’s inconsistent 6-8 record so far and the fact the team still has to come together for this year, the Magic have induced various states of panic already.

Whether it be crushing defeats — and there have been a few; an anemic offense that ranks near the bottom of the league in every major category; or the change in pushing aside of some young players to paly veterans, the Magic have left plenty for fans to ponder on as they head toward Thanksgiving and the season’s first big road trip.

The Magic are 6-8 but it does not feel that way. Statistics suggest they should have only four wins at this point. Orlando is still figuring out a lot of things still. And they have plenty of room to get better still.

Thanksgiving is a landmark on the calendar in that this is about the time teams begin to settle into who they are. There is enough of a sample size behind them that their identities are set. And the grind of the season is still ahead as teams find their pace for the marathon still to come.

And with the Magic implementing so much change already this season, there is a lot of second guesisng. We have spent a lot of time on Orlando Magic Daily discussing these changes.

There do not seem to be any clear answers. Not at least until the trade market picks up in December and the Magic can begin tinkering with personnel once again.

Orlando keeps marching on until then, trying to make the best with the roster it has.

That will not stop us from trying to break things down and where they stand right now. With the holiday coming up, the Orlando Magic Daily staff got together to answer some of the big questions facing the Magic.
