That's, i belive, biggest Magic playoff win ever ( vs Atlanta, whooping 114-71), that's also one of biggest playoff margin of victories in history all together.


May 8th, 2010 - April 25th 2024- second and third time in past 14 years that we blew up somebody by 30+.

I seem to remember us dominating the hawks that series, so I was likely at home watching on some computer.

It's been a while since we had a home playoff win in general, right?


August 18, 2020.

Bucks 110- Magic 122

Vuc 35 points, 14 rebounds, 4 assists.

Giannis 31, 17, 7

I thought it was interesting how Brian Hill pointed out when the Magic had that record blowout game in 1995 that the other team came back to win the next game. I'm curious to see how the team plays on Saturday.

Got to point out that in Shaq and Penny's first playoff series they got swept as did Dwight and Jameer in their first playoff series.

Been waiting for the Magic to play with this level of urgency/desperation. Gotta continue with the body blows in Game 4.

We can talk about themes like "desperation", "urgency" and "playing harder" all day but it just helps when shots go down.

Basketball really is that simple at the end of the day. How you get to those shots is the key.

Such a bi-polar flip in the offense from nothing going down to almost everything. I’m still buzzing with how good I feel from that win. Super proud of these guys and what they’re doing.

We have enough other assets to get another starter.

Scheduling is so weird for these playoffs. If we lost last tonight and tomorrow, (or if we won both in Cleveland and won both at home), we would've seen a sweep in our series before Heat-Celtics play their 3rd game.

Not many things to complain about on Game 3 but I really didn't like we did an all bench lineup in first half.

It didnt bite us but it shouldnt happen. We have to be the only teak doing this.
