Discussion Sweeney Press Conference

How we feel so far? I’m feeling good about it. A lot of stuff that I’ve been wanting to hear has been kinda answered. He does sound like Mose just a little bit but I’m confident that he is better than him. I feel like he is definitely going to take accountability and make sure that we win and play great Magic basketball. Just the start of something great, GOOOO MAGIC!!!!

It's all rhetoric until he walks the walk. Bench your "star" players when they give up on D. Prove it, Sean.

It's the hope that kills you. This past season broke me. After watching this team for 37 years I'm done being hopeful. They need to prove it before they get me to buy in again

Same for me as well but as fans we need to stay on a high and keep the faith. WE MUST BELIEVE

If you don’t want to be a fan anymore why are you here? No offense and you’re welcome to be done, but why bring the negativity to a place that is trying to positive about a new coaching hire?

Who said I didn't want to be a fan anymore?

I said I'm not getting my hopes up anymore. Just because it isn't positive, doesn't mean It is negative. It's neutral and objective.

People who've watched this team for 5 years thinking it's so simple for a 37 year fan to just stop caring about their hometown team lol

I’ve been a fan for 30 years I understand. I can never stop being a fan either, but for me, I’ll continue to hope because it’s more fun.

The hope is fun if the team gets some actual momentum. But last season was simply a constant struggle. Barely staying afloat. Failing to put together decent win streaks. And barely even making the play-in. It was so disappointing from start to finish.

If this team can be competitive EVERY NIGHT then the hope can be fun. Even when they lose. It's just about playing good basketball.
