The magic have now watched the path be laid right in front of them. The magic have seen recipe be together by someone else and really it doesn’t seem that hard. If the magic can just find a superstar in the draft (even though they draft shitty), then get said superstar to fall in love with the city all while developing them properly (even though every player gets out of Orlando as fast as they can and they always turn into a more polished player elsewhere), and commit to a coach who they can trust and have everyone buy into (even though everyone has a short leash not making the playoffs is grounds for losing your head). Suddenly you will have a culture that will allow you to have some solid players who can have big roles want to commit to your city. As much as this was an incredibly wacky playoffs all together, at the end of the day someone like Weltman should be able to learn from this. Although someone like the Bucks as much as it gives you hope, will also completely tear you down for the fact they went over 40 years without winning it. That is a fate I do not need to see come to life with the magic.
