Today, EA Sports announced that it will be developing NBA Jam - a game that's an oldie but a goodie - for the Nintendo Wii. For old school gamers, this announcement should be exciting news.
To help promote the iconic franchise, NBA Jam's official website allows fans the opportunity to vote for the players (three for each team in the NBA) they want to see in the game.
So, for fun (and before the official poll is up), I wanted to see which individuals the community would select for the Orlando Magic.
Would it be Dwight Howard, Rashard Lewis, and Jameer Nelson?
Feel free to chime in with your choices.

Because EA Sports hates us :P

Nelson, Howard, and Carter
Lewis maybe instead of Nelson, but Carter and Howard are so popular/mainstream that they’re givens.
Agree about VC
It’ll come down to Jameer or Rashard. Probably Rashard.
And isn’t NBA Jam just 2 players on a team?
Agreed with Howard - Lewis - Nelson
Gives you that side combo of big man – versatile guy – point man. But yeah if they are trying to sell more product Carter probably gets subbed for Nelson.
BOOM SHAKKA LAKKA!
Dwight - JJ - Otis Smith
rebounds/dunks, 3’s/hustle, smarts/straight gangsta

HE'S ON FIRE!!!
Howard – Lewis – and Turkoglu…errr I mean Nelson.
Spreading that Calgary Flames, Montreal Expos, The U, and Orlando Magic love.
Nelson, Lewis and Howard.
Covers all three aspects one needs in an NBA Jam roster. Speed, 3 point shooting, and dunking/blocking.
IS IT THE SHOES?!
Whatever happened to Blue Edwards?
I used to use that Edwards/Lohaus Bucks team cause they were so bad and I became so good at that game.
Spreading that Calgary Flames, Montreal Expos, The U, and Orlando Magic love.
I'm assuming Carter is going to bump one of those three just on name alone.
I wouldnt be suprised if he bumped Jameer.
Same feeling here as most have said...
D12- lock.
Carter- big name gets him over the line.
Shard- next biggest ‘star’ on the team.
EA will look at it like "yes, meer is an all-star, but carter fills the ‘guard spot’ and nelson didn’t actually play in the ASG (yet).

Going with the traditional NBA Jam style of a sniper, a big guy, and a versatility guy...
Cuttino Mobley, Bo Outlaw, and Nick Anderson.
"When you make your final stand

If we're going old-school...
I’ll go with Reggie Theus, Tree Rollins, and Jeryl Sasser.
I would go with
D12, Carter (Barely), Shard.
Really OT: Of the 4 orlando magic (keepers), i started with on fantasy- I have only 2 left- D12 and Lewis.
I flipped Nelson for J. Crawford- which in turn i flipped with Casspi for Westbrook (and harden).
I gave Carter + Billups for Monta. Note, this was a keeper league.
Desean Jackson is one hell of a guy.
Buc'em- Your source for everything buccaneer.
Dwight and VC will probably be the ones in the game..though Shard is an Alt choice
If I had to make an all-time team I guess I had to go with Penny 95 and T-Mac 02

No Reece Gaines?
