Predict the Orlando Magic's playoff seeding next year

[Jameerthefear]

I have them at 4th seed.

[Black and White]

Realistic prediction, 10th seed.

[Olacinco]

I have em at da 5 knocking off Chicago first round

[Imtheman]

Highly doubt they'll make the playoffs next year.

[Jameerthefear]

Highly doubt they'll make the playoffs next year.
Future negged. Welcome to the list.

[Real14]

Number 12

[no pun intended]

lower than the lakers

[Springsteen]

weren't you a rockets fan?

[Jameerthefear]

weren't you a rockets fan?
No. I was going for the Rockets during the playoffs.

[Jameerthefear]

Depending on the two picks and how they play in their rookie year I can see a good season.

[sammichoffate]

Most likely 10th unless they get another piece to go with Afflalo. Then I would put them 8th/9th depending on health of Jefferson and Horford.

[fpliii]

Depends on who you guys draft. :confusedshrug: Could make it, or could be one year away IMO.

[Jameerthefear]

Draft lottery couldn't come any sooner.

[Le Shaqtus]

Honestly can't say until after this draft happens.

I'm an optimist, but as a Magic fan I'm pessimistic, I have us missing the post season again.

[greymatter]

Too early to tell. Why not wait until after the draft and free agency before making such pointless predictions?

[Droid101]

Not making the playoffs.

Especially if Silver changes it to 1-16 rather than top 8 per conference. Then the Magic might not see the playoffs ever again.

Honestly... I think we could make the playoffs with our current roster + Oladipo improving :confusedshrug:

[Lebronxrings]

irrelevant. Who cares? :lol

Silver changes it then LA is f*cked for 10 years :roll: Have fun losing.

Got no confidence in Dipo, turnover prone and no jump shot.

That being said he has lots of room to improve and is a hard worker, it really depends if we get a stud out of this draft. If we miss out on Wiggins or even Parker or Randle we're probably screwed.

I don't see any potential in Smart or Exum.

[TheMagicMan]

Won't make it as long as they keep being the Lakers b*tch and sending their franchise Centers our way :roll: :roll: :roll:

[Trentknicks]

They will need to add around 15-20 wins to this seasons total to even make it in the east, good luck.

He's turnover prone now, but it's mostly because he isn't a point guard and was being treated like he was when he's never played that position. I can definitely see his jumpshot improving since his 3-pointer took such a massive jump from the beginning of the season. I agree about Exum especially since we'd have a really poor shooting backcourt if we drafted him, but I trust Hennigan to make the right call.

[TheMagicMan]

25 wins will get them a top 5 seed in the Least.

[Legends66NBA7]

Depends on the standings.

Indiana - Might be vulnerable; probably looking to trade for pieces and Stephenson's RFA decision.
Miami - Depends of James's decision, what happens to Bosh and Wade ?
Toronto - Do they continue to develop ? Lowry's FA decision.
Chicago - Depends of Derrick Rose and Joakim Noah's health.
Washington - Outside of Beal and Wall, it's a veteran group. Could have a downside.
Brooklyn - Might need to make some moves for it work again.
Charlotte - Depends on Jefferson's health.
Atlanta - Depends on Horford's health.

New York - Depends on Melo's decision and might need to swing moves.
Cleveland - Should develop younger talent, don't see them getting much better.
Detroit - Horrible situation with contracts, but maybe Drummond takes the next step ? What happens to Monroe ?
Boston - Rondo getting traded ? Should be better, lot of young players
Orlando - Same as Boston, might look to shop Afflalo.
Philadelphia - See above.

The bottom 3 probably miss the playoffs again. Charlotte isn't a sure thing to make the playoffs, but will probably be better than the bottom 3. I don't know how much Phil can change the New York lineup, but they could be back if Melo stays. Atlanta should be healthy and make the playoffs as a higher seed.

[Relinquish]

weren't you a rockets fan?

No he's a Dwight stan though because of his Magic days.

[Black Mamba's B]

Still not making the playoffs even in the east

[Jameerthefear]

Damn. Lot of mad Lakers fans :oldlol: Just shows you how mad they are :roll:

[Doctor Rivers]

Damn. Lot of mad Lakers fans :oldlol: Just shows you how mad they are :roll:

Worthless

Nice try.
The Magic are a crappy franchise. Unfortunately for the true fans of that team, they will continue to be mediocre

[alenleomessi]

i forgot they exist

[MrC1991]

Don't think they'll make the playoffs. Sorry n shit. If it all pans out they'll be there in a couple years though.

[mattvNJ]

not in the playoffs yet, maybe the following year. They do show a lot of promise with what theyve done how ever. 9-11 place next season.

[COnDEMnED]

Anywhere between 12-10th

[JellyBean]

This one is easy, no playoffs. They will finish as the 13th seed.

[Mr. Jabbar]

lol who the f cares :roll:

[reppy]

I wouldn't be super eager to get back in the playoffs.

Your ideal next year would include developing your new talent, improving, but missing the playoffs. Acquire some decent picks and use them to fill your weaknesses or trade them for veterans.

[Le Shaqtus]

Magic fans and fans of basketball in general.

This is what I want to happen. Rebuilding is a process, it's not gonna happen over night

[Jameerthefear]

Can't lose forever. Players are going to get unhappy, fan attendance will keep declining, and free agents will find Orlando less attractive. It's time to start winning imo.

[Real14]

lol who the f cares :roll:
:applause:

[JohnFreeman]

Not sure, depends on draft and other scenarios.

[BlackVVaves]

Really can't tell right now

[JUDGE WITNESS]

12 seed

[Brokenbeat]

They're probably my favorite team in the east (mostly because I have Oladipo/Harris/Vuc on my fantasy teams), but I think it will be another season or two before they make the playoffs. They're gonna be ridiculous if they get Exum too.

Shame about that fanbase though. :( :D

You could say the same for the Heat and Laker fanbases, don't let a few people determine your attitude on a teams fans.
