Thursday night, I should have been heading to the Amway Center to get Orlando Magic lineup confirmations from coach Steve Clifford and whatever little question we might have. I should have been getting ready to see Aaron Gordon and Nikola Vucevic and Markelle Fultz warm-up on the Amway Center floor, adorned in its City Edition anthracite.
Fans should have been getting ready to line into the Amway Center and collect their Jonathan Isaac bobblehead dolls. They should have been gearing up for the first game of an important 10-game stretch with eight at home that would very well make or break their playoff positioning.
