NBA Legend Kevin Garnett Praises Orlando Magic: 'They Will Blow Your A** Out!'

The Orlando Magic got its ninth straight win on Friday night, and as a result, the team is getting more and more publicity, this time from NBA legend Kevin Garnett.

The Orlando Magic has a 9-2 record at home this season, and is off to one of the best starts in its history, and people are starting to take notice.

In the most recent episode of Ticket and the Truth, NBA legends Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce talked about what the mentality should be like for opposing teams going to play the Magic in Orlando right now.

"Orlando's like the new Toronto," Garnett said. "You thought Toronto was sweet. You went out, had a good time, cool dinner. Next thing you know, you in a dogfight the next night... Ain't no going out, I'm going right to bed. I'm getting dinner and then right to bed!"

The Magic is making a new identity for itself right now, as it seems like a whole new team. The team is 14-5 through its first 19 games, and just last year, the team was 5-14 through the same span of games.

"You can't get a win in Orlando right now," Garnett said. "You go down to Orlando... they will blow your a** out... You go down there thinking it's going to be all rides, then you look up and you're down 40."

For the last few seasons, if a team saw the Magic on its schedule, they would look at that game as an easy win, but now, it is quite the opposite. When teams see the Magic on their schedule now, they've got to do some extra work in preparation for the battle in Orlando.
