The Orlando Magic makes another trip to the NBA playoffs this year.

The Orlando Magic makes another trip to the NBA playoffs this year. At last year’s NBA playoffs, Orlando thrashed the Atlanta hawks in a 4-0 second round sweep. It was the most lopsided in history. This year, the two teams are match in the first round but don’t expect the same results as in the 2010 nba playoff. The Atlanta Hawks are determined to seek revenge this time.

Earlier in the season, Orlando made a blockbuster trade deal with the Phoenix Suns and the Washington Wizards. They traded Vince Carter, Marcin Gortat and Mickaël Piétrus to Phoenix for Hedo Türko?lus, Jason Richardson and Earl Clark. Rashard Lewis was traded to Washington for the 3 time All-Star Gilbert Arenas. That is now proven to be a very wise move. The Magic were losing earlier in the season before the trade but look where they are right now.
