Reviews for "Orlando Magic's Home Court Advantage: the Amway Center"
1. John - 1/5 - I recently attended an Orlando Magic basketball game and it was a complete disappointment. The team seemed disorganized and their performance on the court was lackluster. The players lacked energy and it felt like they were just going through the motions. The atmosphere in the arena was also very dull, with minimal fan engagement.
