The Orlando Magic roster in 2009 was composed of a talented group of players led by head coach Stan Van Gundy. At that time, the team was considered one of the top contenders in the Eastern Conference. One of the key players on the roster was center Dwight Howard. Known for his dominant presence in the paint, Howard was a force to be reckoned with on both ends of the court. His shot-blocking ability and rebounding prowess made him one of the top centers in the league. The Magic also had a strong backcourt led by Jameer Nelson and Courtney Lee.

Amish Witches, Fact or Fiction?

You wouldn't think that the topic of Amish and witches would have much in common. But, surprisingly, Amish Witches are a thing. And least in legend and lore, the reality is a bit shakier.

The Magic also had a strong backcourt led by Jameer Nelson and Courtney Lee. Nelson, the starting point guard, was known for his playmaking ability and three-point shooting. Lee, on the other hand, provided a solid shooting guard presence and was a reliable scorer.

🧙‍♀️ Are There Amish Witches?

Well, Wiccan is the official religion of witchery, and I think it is pretty safe to say that in reality, there are no Amish witches. But fiction, pop culture, and Hollywood seems to have latched onto this topic of confection.

A few years ago there was even a show on TV called Amish Witches: The True Story of Holmes County. The show purported to be "true," but it sounds like a bunch of scraps put into a sausage grinder, and out came the gunk that made up the show.

Scene from "Amish Witches"

From Lifetime’s press release about the movie at the time:

When a reality TV crew moves into Holmes County. Ohio to document the lives of an isolated sect of Swartzentruber Amish, production is halted by the death of Brauchau, an Amish witch. Following her unconsecrated funeral, a small group of young Amish women solicit the TV crew’s help in an attempt to document the inexplicable events plaguing them.But as everyone soon discovers the powerful malevolent force haunting them has deadly intentions.

The movie was produced by Hot Snakes Media, the Hollywood production company that has brought us other cultural gems like “Amish Mafia", Amish Haunting, and Breaking Amish. Sorry to be cynical, but I think the executives at Hot Snakes know very little about the Amish, but they have obviously found a profit-center for their storytelling and trying to delve into the Amish and witches was something they thought would be a winner.

Additionally, the Magic had a number of other key contributors on their roster. Rashard Lewis, a versatile forward, provided a scoring punch on the perimeter. Hedo Turkoglu, an experienced veteran, added playmaking and shooting from the small forward position. And Ryan Anderson, a young power forward, provided valuable scoring off the bench. With this talented roster, the Magic had a successful season in 2009. They finished with a record of 59 wins and 23 losses, securing the second seed in the Eastern Conference. In the playoffs, they went on a deep run, eventually reaching the NBA Finals where they faced off against the Los Angeles Lakers. Unfortunately, the Magic fell short in the Finals, losing to the Lakers in five games. Despite this disappointment, the 2009 Orlando Magic roster remains one of the most memorable in franchise history..
