The Orlando Magic finished 8-0 this preseason. This is the first time in the Magic’s history that they have done this.
Now comes the hard part the regular season, but after watching this team meld together they look like the team to beat. Yahoo Sports has predicted that this team will go all the way and I have to concur after watching them destroy the Hawks in their last preseason game.
Redick did not shoot great, but he still averaged 10.5 points this preseason. Plus he was one of the assist leaders on the Magic in the preseason as well.
Head Coach SVG has said that JJ will be the backup to Vince Carter at SG this upcoming season. Plus Stan noted that JJ is one of the best perimeter defenders on this team along side Pietrus.
JJ has evolved into a great role player instead of just a shooter. After watching him play this preseason we here at Duke-Redick.com believe that JJ has turned the corner and should look forward to a great season and a repeat of the Magic going to the finals. This time the Magic win it all.
Basketball season is upon us and we are ready to see the Duke Blue Devils challenge the rest of the world again. This is a team that has all the pieces to get it done. Coach K just has to mesh the new pieces with the old and this will be the team to beat this year.

The Orlando Magic are ready for prime time after letting go of a couple of players who helped them get to the finals they added players who this time around should get them past everyone and win the Finals this year around. Players like Vince Carter and Ryan Anderson both traded from the Nets. They also picked up Brandon Bass from Dallas and Rick Barnes from Phoenix. Plus they added crafty veteran Jason Williams. All of these pieces equal a team that is even better then last years version.
With all of this JJ Redick is having a great pre-season averaging 12 points and several assists a game and has shown that yes he did improve his game from last year just as he had promised. JJ has worked hard on getting his shot as well as being a floor general for the Magic when on the court. We see great promise for JJ this year with hopefully added playing time as Vince Carters back up as SVG announced as pre-season began.
From the people at JJ Redick and Duke Basketball Fansite we wish the best of luck to JJ Redick and the Orlando Magic.
Best of luck as well to the Duke Blue Devils who we see playing better this year then last.
