He has for sure. No doubt. Plus he averages 21 ppg this season. But many people would argue those are empty stats if we were talking about one of our own.

For example, the same guys who complain about Ross being inefficient would really rage if they saw Bookers attempted shots per game.

If we force feed Mario the same shots that Booker takes I don't think he can match Booker.

Btw seems to me Booker is injured, he seems to be dragging his leg.

I don't know. I haven't given up on Mario yet. Give him that many shots and worse case we LOSE this game like we should have.

David Steele: Much needed victory for the ball club.

Really? Magic must be paying him his salary x 3.

What does that have to do with anything? We don't play either teams again. Both the kings and Knicks have brutal schedules left. We still have Brooklyn twice and Philly.

Bkln has a better offense than we do and Philly has been playing relatively well. They can actually beat us twice with how awful this team is.

Nice win for The Magic although it hurts in the tank standings. You do need lotto luck regardless though.

Replay center staff went home for the evening. They had to call the on-call. Besides us poor fans, no one else in the world cares about Magic/Suns game.

They weren't going to lose every game for the remainder of the season. And for the games they do win, it's naturally going to be more likely that it's against similarly bad teams like the Suns. These reactions I'm reading are just over the top and silly. I'm not anti-tank, I'm just saying. Let's get real. This will almost certainly not be their last win of the season either, so brace yourself for the next one.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.
