The Orlando Magic sent plenty of signals they were not going to sit idly by or try a repeat of what did not work in the Rob Hennigan era.
In hiring Hennigan, the Magic bought into the idea of a process of rebuilding and a specific plan from a hot shot, young executive who believed he had the answers. By all accounts, many around the league believed Hennigan was ready for the lead chair. His work with the Oklahoma City Thunder spoke for itself.
Ultimately, though, Hennigan proved unable to adjust to the plan.
