Nineteen years ago, on this day... Orlando hires Stan Van Gundy on a four-year contract to become the franchise's new head coach. The Magic went 259-135 (.657) with Van Gundy as head coach, and won their first ever NBA finals game in 2009 with him at the helm.

The Magic not having a good guard for the entirety of the post-Dwight team is really a curse man, an entire fanbase has forgotten what a franchise changing point guard really is

There's probably like 4 losses this season you could argue was our worst of the year. But Franz's ankle injury was the most consequential moment pretty comfortably
What was the worst moment from this Magic season?

From Brooklyn to Milwaukee to Dallas, see his philosophy & how he might help lead the Knicks alongside Jason Kidd post-Thibodeau with Brunson & Towns. Full read: dav1dchabot.substack.com/p/t…

Forgot Armstrong had a case that's probably not happening. Oliver just signed to Pepperdine as an assistant coach so unlikely too

BREAKING: The Orlando Magic are finalizing the hire of San Antonio Spurs associate coach Sean Sweeney as the franchise's new head coach, sources tell ESPN. Sweeney broke into NBA coaching in 2011 and now lands the Magic head job as a top rising candidate.

Was enticed by the idea in previous years but the serious issue is: Watching Paolo these past few years, building around him absolutely requires guys who know how to play away from the basketball. If you watch the Knicks, they have four dudes that can do that around Brunson and a plethora of bench players that can. Same with OKC and Shai (although Shai is also good off-ball)
Donovan Mitchell to Orlando is a match made in heaven but y’all aren’t ready for that conversation

Always the option of moving on from Paolo but I'm well aware majority of this fanbase (myself included) would like to see how he could be more useful under a different coaching staff.
