Stat Line of the Night — 4/10/2013 — Nikola Vucevic and Tobias Harris
The last time two players on the same team recorded at least 30 points and 19 rebounds was on March 15, 1967, when Willis Reed and Walt Bellamy did it while playing for the New York Kicks. So, it goes without saying that this is quite the rare feat, and it was accomplished once again [...]

Dude Proposes to Girlfriend at Halftime of Orlando Magic Game (Video)
A lot of guys propose to their girlfriends at sporting events and, frankly, I’m not sure why. Even if the woman in question happens to be a huge sports nut, the odds that she wants to get engaged in front of 20,000 drunk basketball fans seems pretty slim. Chicks want rose petals and gondola rides [...]

Stat Line of the Night — 3/12/2013 — Dwight Howard
Nothing seems to motivate a basketball player quite like playing on the road against their previous team in front of the fans that they used to call their own. We’ve seen Vince Carter do it to the Toronto Raptors. We’ve seen LeBron James do it to the Cleveland Cavaliers. And last night, it was the [...]

Check Out the Orlando Magic Dancing Dads (Video)
Cheerleaders have always been a great way for basketball teams to entertain their fans during timeouts, between quarters and at halftime of home games. And it makes perfectly good sense, as gorgeous women dancing in short skirts has always been a great way to attract a large male fan base. But in Orlando, they like [...]

Orlando Magic Mascot and Fans Do the Harlem Shake (Video)
Brace yourselves: a tidal wave of Harlem Shake videos are coming. This latest internet meme is somewhere between 9 and 14 days old, depending on which YouTube video you want to pinpoint as the originator. However, in that short amount of time, the trend is already everywhere, including the newsroom at TSN’s SportsCentre. Now it’s [...]

Magic’s Jameer Nelson Nails a Bounce Shot Against the Knicks (Video)
Athletes vent their frustration in a lot of different ways. Sometimes they’ll snap a bat over their knee. Sometimes they’ll beat the crap out of a Gatorade cooler. Or sometimes they’ll just turn and give their opponent a vicious elbow to the kisser. Judging by the way Jameer Nelson took out his frustration last night [...]

Glen “Big Baby” Davis Catches Gerald Wallace and Carries Him Like a Baby (Video)
I have no idea whether Glen “Big Baby” Davis really is a nice guy. But with a nickname like that you certainly would assume so. And the play you’re about to see would certainly suggest as much, also. Last night, you see, Davis’ Orlando Magic were in Brooklyn to take on the Nets. About halfway [...]

John Wall Broke Ish Smith's Ankles With This Crossover (Video)
how to win back your ex The Washington Wizards may be the worst team in the entire NBA at the moment, but they have been able to string together a season-high, three-game winning streak, with their latest victory coming last night against the Orlando Magic. And highlighting the Wizards' 120-91 beatdown of the Magic was [...]

Orlando Magic Cheerleaders Takes Nasty Spill During Stunt, Gets Carted Off Court on a Stretcher (Videos)
We are all somewhat used to seeing athletes carted off the field on stretchers. It doesn’t happen everyday, but it happens often enough that we all know the drill: everyone stands around silently watching, waiting for a positive sign, and then, more often than not, the player gives a thumbs up to let us know [...]

Shaq’s One-Sided Feud With Dwight Howard Just Got Weirder: The Big Aristotle Is Rapping Again (Video)
Shaquille O’Neal definitely has a major inferiority complex when it comes to new Lakers center Dwight Howard. After the trade between the Lakers and Magic was finalized back in August, Shaq said Howard had some big shoes to fill, and that in terms of becoming a true “big man,” Howard was “off pace.” Then, earlier [...]

This Interview With Stan Van Gundy And Dwight Howard Was Just Awkward (Video)
A strong sense of awkwardness probably already existed in the Orlando Magic locker room after rumors spread yesterday that Dwight Howard had asked management to fire head coach Stan Van Gundy. Today, the level of awkwardness hit its peak when Howard interrupted an interview between Van Gundy and the media, only seconds after the Magic [...]

Glen “Big Baby” Davis Nearly Squashed Some Knicks Fans Last Night (Video)
While sitting courtside at an NBA game, perhaps the worst thing that you could have happen to you is being seated in Glen “Big Baby” Davis’ landing spot while the Orlando Magic forward chases down a loose ball. A couple of Knicks fans were forced to sit through that nightmarish scene during last night’s game [...]

Stan Van Gundy Was Confused When The Raptors Fans Cheered For Free Pizza (Videos)
With the Orlando Magic leading the Toronto Raptors by a score of 117-98, Ed Davis received the ball in the key and drained a hook shot over the head of a Magic defender, cutting the Raptors’ deficit to 17 with just 2.1 seconds remaining in the game. Doesn’t seem like much to cheer about, does [...]

Stat Line Of The Night — 3/13/12 — Dwight Howard
Dwight Howard may want out of Orlando, but he certainly hasn’t packed his bags and quit on the Magic just yet. That was evident last night, as D-12 was a key catalyst during the Magic’s second quarter comeback against the Miami Heat in what may have very well been his last home game as a [...]

Dwight Howard Does A Great Charles Barkley Impersonation (Video)
It may be time to start calling Dwight Howard the Derek Holland of the NBA, as he demonstrated some of his own talents when it comes to impersonations prior to the Magic’s Thursday night game against the Bulls in Chicago. During what appeared to be a welcome change from answering the usual questions regarding his [...]
