@cb1115 So we just gonna ignore Ware, Kas, Jaime and just focus on Herro? Lmao anything for clicks I guess. Makes sense you root for the Magic.

the Giannis/Orlando noise appears very Milwaukee-driven to me
if I was staring down the barrel of trading the best player in franchise history for Tyler Herro I’d be leaking crazy shit too lmao
English
local Milwaukee guys are also the only ones reporting Orlando interest. nothing from the national folks or Beede/Robbins
English
the Charlie Villanueva clip from a few weeks ago emblematic of this
I’m sure Milwaukee would love Paolo or Franz but Orlando and Giannis probably less interested
English
so it’s down to Donovan/JVG/Sweeney
the longer this takes the more I think it’ll be Sweeney
English
should’ve put an ETO in my lifetime fan contract
Marc Stein@TheSteinLine
Orlando had interest in Jason Kidd in the summer of 2021 when he took the Dallas job and the Magic last had a coaching vacancy. TBD whether the Magic, who are known to be seeking a coach with experience, pursue him again.

though it would be funny if this stretched out all the way to the draft and he still landed on Donovan anyway lol
English
Weltman’s extreme patience can be grating but I’m cool with it in this instance. probably the most important decision of his tenure
English
@FmrTankCommandr maybe one of these assistants is a secret genius or something

Feels like the Magic are doing their due diligence but unless they're blown away they'll end up with Billy Donovan. I guess, man.
English
Interesting way to frame it.
NBACentral@TheDunkCentral
Billy Donovan reportedly has an ‘excellent’ chance of landing the Magic head coaching job, per @JakeLFischer Orlando is also showing interest in Jeff Van Gundy. “While I always hesitate to frame any potential hire as the favorite for a job, since NBA matters can be so fluid, coaching insiders across the league's landscape are very much operating under the belief that former Bulls coach Billy Donovan has an excellent shot at landing the post. Sources confirmed that Donovan is in dialogue with Magic president Jeff Weltman and will have an in-person meeting with Orlando's lead executive in the near future…Orlando has LA Clippers assistant coach Jeff Van Gundy on its radar as well. The defensive guru on Tyronn Lue's staff is the brother, of course, of former Magic coach Stan Van Gundy.” (Via substack.com/redirect/2/eyJ…)

JVG is such an odd pull lol. makes sense if you want to go all-in on experience though I guess
English
@jespvg sure does feel like they’re waiting for him with how quiet the search has been
English
y’all know how sick it would look if the Magic could go all blue during a home playoff game or something
a shame we’ll never know
English
every team had their own accessory/sock colors too. we’re losing recipes
English
so this was the first season with Nike jerseys
am I crazy or do the jersey/accessory materials look way cheaper now
