Aaron Gordon Is A Nasty In-Game Dunker Too
If the first time you really noticed Aaron Gordon was when he was jumping over a dragon on a hoverboard during the dunk contest, that’s okay! The Orlando Magic aren’t very good, and Gordon hasn’t quite managed to consistently put together his elite potential (though he’s close). The important thing ...


Nikola Vucevic Hits Another Game-Winning Turnaround Buzzer-Beater
The Orlando Magic downed the Atlanta Hawks at home today thanks to this wild turnaround buzzer-beater from Nikola Vucevic. This is eerily similar to a game Vucevic hit back in November against the Lakers. Maybe the Magic should make their whole offense out of Nik Vucevic turnaround jumpers?...

Magic Beat Lakers On Nikola Vucevic Buzzer-Beating Turnaround Jumper
I don’t think this is what the Magic drew up—and if it was, really?—but it was good enough to beat the Lakers, and advance to 4-5....

Thunder And Magic Trade Crazy Buzzer-Beaters
The Thunder and the Magic played out a crazy-ass game down in Orlando last night, one that featured about as many would-be daggers and big threes as you’ll see in a regular season game. ...

Aaron Gordon Embarrassed A Series Of Wizards
The story of a Blake Griffinish start to Young Cock Aaron Gordon’s season, and a bunch of dunked-on Wizards, in three short videos....

Luke Ridnour Was Probably Traded Again In The Time It Took To Write This
Before yesterday, I wouldn’t have known where Luke Ridnour played last season. My best guess would have been, “Is he still in Minnesota?” The guard was actually with the Magic, until he was traded to the Grizzlies Wednesday, but his journey didn’t end there. Ridnour got shipped around two more times...

You Must See The Worst Quarter In NBA History
The time has come for you to bear witness: tonight the Knicks and Magic combined for 15 total points in the second quarter of their “battle” in Orlando. So that this may never be forgotten, we provide you here the entire 12 minutes, set to the proper accompaniment. ...

Victor Oladipo Sings Horribly, Throws Down Tremendous Dunk
Victor Oladipo, the living and sole justification for the existence of the Orlando Magic, entered tonight's slam dunk contest in Brooklyn to a hilariously off-key rendition of the theme to "New York, New York" before throwing down what turned out to be a pretty damn good dunk in the opening round of...

Orlando Magic Decide Jacque Vaughn To Blame For Their Season, Fire Him
The rumors have been bouncing around for awhile, but it finally came to pass. The Orlando Magic officially announced—Woj had it first, natch—that they fired head coach Jacque Vaughn. ...

Basketball Hangs On Rim Forever, Delights Jeremy Lamb
Given how fast-paced and fluid basketball can be, it's always funny when some unexpected shit happens and throws off the entire rhythm of the game. That's exactly what went down during last night's game between the Thunder and Magic, when the ball just refused to let go of the rim....

Nikola Vucevic Whomps On Pau Gasol's Head With Dunk
Pau Gasol is having his best season in a couple of years, suggesting that his recent demise wasn't about physical ability but the psychic torture that the Mike D'Antoni-Dwight Howard-Old Kobe Bryant-Nick Young Los Angeles Lakers imposed upon him. But one of the cool things about the NBA is that almo...

Wizards Win On Bradley Beal Alley-Oop Layup With 0.8 Seconds Left
Bradley Beal still looks a bit off after missing the first three weeks of the season with a fractured wrist, but this is sure to raise his spirits. The Wizards entered the fourth quarter down eight to the Magic, but a furious rally led by John Wall tied the game on Rasual Butler's free throw with 16...

Stephen Curry, Three Pointer, For The Win, Without A Doubt
How very Orlando Magic to have the ball and a two-point lead with ten seconds left and lose. How very Stephen Curry to be the reason why....

Aaron Gordon Crosses A Little Girl To The Ground, Flees The Scene
If there's one thing we love, it's people running away from awesome things that happen on a basketball court. If there's another thing we love, it's small children getting their shit wrecked by a sweet crossover. So this Vine, featuring Magic rookie Aaron Gordon, is essentially the perfect Vine....

Jameer Nelson Did The Big Balls Dance
Last night's Bulls-Magic game was a three-overtime thriller marked by plenty of big shots, but it would just have been a standard 101-99 Bulls win if not for Jameer Nelson and his big balls. Here we see Nelson tying the game with a jumper in the closing seconds of the fourth quarter, and then hitti...

"David Lee, Bodied By Big Dick Baby"
I'm trying real hard to come up with possible words Bob Fitzgerald, the Warriors play-by-play man for CSN Bay Area, could have said instead of "Big Dick Baby" and I'm coming up short. ...

Glen Davis Carves Turkey With Only His Hands
After Wednesday's win against the 76ers, Glen Davis and Nikola Vucevic carved a postgame turkey to maintain the Magic's tradition. Well, actually, Glen Davis ripped off one of the legs with his bare hands while Vucevic cut off a small piece to white meat to nibble on. Big Baby loves his turkey (and...

Here's Victor Oladipo Crooning A Bill Withers Song
This is from back in April, but the internet just discovered it because it was tweeted out last night by Shelby Gogreve, the woman on stage with Magic rookie Victor Oladipo, who fancies himself as a singer. The video above is from Indiana University's Spirit of Indiana Showcase. It's Oladipo and G...
