Klay's 5th good quarter in a row, FWIW. And unlike yesterday, he's actually been good defensively too. Hasnt quit on a single play so far that Ive seen either

Warriors look good but what in the heck are the Magic even doing on offense? They look like crap.

If Dray played defense like Looney, the refs would foul Dray out in 6 minutes.

Magic seem really rusty with all that time off.

They are desperate for a shooter, they're gonna overpay at least one this offseason

Also believe they had big expectations for Jett, but those fell flat. Between that and Franz losing his 3pt mojo, team is really rough from outside. Even their 2 starting guards are bust-adjacent guards with questionable shooting strokes

Can Moody shoot, or not? I can never figure out the answer to that question.

I get it but they were in the bonus midway through the quarter and they just settled for bad shot after bad shot.

oh yeah that? really young team and aside from ingles, vets arent exactly sharpest tools in the shed

I'm still dying that the Magic have guards drafted at 1, 4, 6, 15 in the past 5 years and only one of them is a really credible 3pt shooter (and only this year, before this year Suggs was a 30% 3pt shooter) When they drafted Black was especially hilarious... they really are leaning into their weakness

I think they might tbh, its one team where it might actually make sense. Warriors wont let it happen, but if S&T is an option (never know with the damn 2nd apron).. they have some pieces that could be useful here

After some defensive rotations there was a hilarious moment when Klay was the center, CP was one forward and Podz was the other.

If Kerr would treat CP3 like a vet min contract instead of a 30m guy, we'd be a lot better
