Franz gave Beverly the too small to guard me sign after a bucket. I bet he saw that clip.

Thoroughly enjoyed that.

I'm thankful for everything.

Thankfull for where we are. We are far ahead of schedule. We were counting ping pong balls last year. This season is a massive success. Gonna be so exciting to see this team in the playoffs

Watching Paolo's and Jalen's growth and having a healthy JI has been the awesome. But honestly, I'm proud of how much these players banned together and played for each other. It's been awesome to watch.

Before this season started.

I'm grateful for:
- the continued growth of Paolo, Franz, and Suggs.
- the improved availability of JI
- Mosley coaching this team to a top 5 defense
- Weltman for drafting AB

I'm thankful for the spark they were able to light in me to come back and follow the team closely again. The League Pass investment has paid off. I had lots of fun and this last game of the regular season felt a bit like beating the Cavs back in 2009 play-offs.

Now, I'm prepared to get our asses kicked by the Cavs. But at the same time I'm gonna enjoy the **** out of every positove outcome - the same way as I celebrated the DJ Augustin's game one of the Raptors series 5 years ago.

I'm not getting my hopes up this season. But if Weltman and his crew don't screw this off-season up, we are in for the long haul. Just make some right decisions.

I’m grateful for the team giving us the most entertaining season of basketball since we went to the finals in ‘09 - and this is just the beginning for this squad.

We’ve got a stud core in Paolo, Franz, Suggs and JI. We’ve got more studs in the wings. We’ve got great veterans in MoJo and Harris. We had Goga and Black step up when we lost 2 starters to injury early in the season. We had a 15-deep team and every one of them contributed to the W’s through the season.

Very grateful to have a competitive team once again, and a bright future to look forward to.

Finally JI has shown the world..

For them never giving up. Theyre a cool bunch that way. Wired to compete.

I second Pepe I'm thankful we finally had a mostly healthy season with no season ending injuries. Having JI back even if wasn't enough minutes was amazing. And the blue classic jersey was the cherry on top.

I'm thankful for the great team chemistry and the overall character of the gentlemen wearing the magic uniform. I'm thankful for a winning record, making the playoffs especially bypassing the playin. The overall health has been great as well. I'm super thankful that for the first time in a long time I didn't look at any mock drafts or tankathon all season! I'm stoked for the first round of the playoffs...I completely believe that we can beat the cavs in this series or the alternative is we don't and go home hungrier for next year. Mostly I'm thankful that for the first time in a long time I don't really give a crap about the draft lottery and I'm more excited about free agency than the draft!

getting lucky by hitting the #1 pick

The free throw line

The emergence of Jalen freaking Suggs! The health of Jonathan Isaac! And Paolo for putting his stamp on the NBA this season! Shoutout to Coach Mose and Mo Wagner this year as well! Loving this season!

Jalen Suggs finishes the year at 39.9% from 3 and 1.4stls (top 10).

The growth of the players... 47 wins was not in the bingo cards. But this team was able to do it together and without much ego. I'm proud of these guys.
