Column: The Orlando Magic are stuck in NBA purgatory
The Orlando Magic have an angel on one shoulder and a devil on the other.
One is telling the Magic to try to make the playoffs, the other is saying to tank for the draft lottery. Problem is, we don’t really know which one is telling them to do what, because no one seems to know with certainty the best and safest course for the perpetually rebuilding franchise to take.
The Magic are stuck in NBA purgatory. Too good to be bad enough, too bad to be good enough.
The Orlando Magic are 41 games into the season. They are 2.5 games out of the eighth spot. They have the seventh best draft lottery odds.
