..actions speal louder than words, Rashard.

I hope VC remembers that he’s (kinda) on a contract year and he plays like he needs the money.

Check out ESPN's poll of who's more likely to win an NBA Championship

The Magic is credited with 4% as of this time, behind the Lakers, Celtics, Heat and Thunder.

Can you say underrated?

The Thunder have more than the Magic!? If thats the case, its absolutely crazy.

Well, my point exactly

The general consensus, it appears, is that the Magic are a second-tier team or something, at least in the fight for a championship.

Actually, I couldn’t care less, these are just words and opinions from people who don’t know any better and words don’t matter. Facts do.

Which ring motivated him? The one in won in Orlando or the last one? He has options for motivation.

I hope that motivation involves beating the Celtics. Before we beat LA, we got to beat those guys.

Sorry, Rashard

If seeing ring ceremonies for the last 12 seasons hasn’t motivated you, I’m going to go ahead and figure this one won’t either.

Well put. Perfect example of why I think Twitter is becoming more and more just internet pollution. If it isn’t breaking news or an interesting article, I don’t want to read or receive the Tweet.

Sadly, I agree with this

Then again, I think Rashard started his twitter account last year, so maybe he always felt like this bu this was his first actual opportunity to tweet about being motivated by a ring ceremony.

I guess most (if not all) players are motivated and want to win. But it’s easier said than done. Hope the whole team is more prepared and focused this year when it comes playoff time and have some luck.

I'd just shut up if I were on a losing team (one of the 29 that didn't win the championship)

And let my play talk. If I have the balls and I’m willing to do that. It’s so easy to talk only to come up short. How about I talk after I actually win the title?

Then it’s OK to say “in the beginning of the season, seeing the Lakers get their rings really motivated me”. It’s OK because you won.
