GT: Magic (20-26) @ Nets (25-23)

Russell played the role of superman last game with a 40-spot helping to erase a 21 point deficit. This one is in our building where we have won 10 of our last 11 games and 6 straight.

Hopefully we can keep the train moving... we have been juggernauts at home recently. I'm sure the Magic will be looking to attone for blowing that big lead and REALLY need this win to stay playoff relevant.

Lets get a balanced performance across the board and a win. I want to see 7 players in double figures today.

Tickets were so cheap for this game, I decided to go. Hopefully it's a good one.

Kinda sorta hoping for a blowout so I can get home early but the Magic are decent, so doubt that happens.

Another slow start, but we've recovered quickly.

nah what did he do?

Decent start so far but we're honestly squandering some good fortune, Orlando can't buy a bucket on offense.

Tre Graham continues to be a beast. Dude is quickly becoming one of my favorite players on the roster, he's all lunch pail and hard hat, meat and potatoes and is consistently a plus player on the floor.

I love that Russell short jumper from the foul line, seems like it's money every time. Dude needs to start finishing his layups though.

After Rodions huge dunk, when the timeout was called, he gave him a big wink and dap as he met him walking to the bench.

not surprising, this roster doesn't get through what they've been through early on this season without pulling for each other. goof stuff

good finish to the quarter, we need to really go on a run in the 2nd though to get some separation.

Oladipo down with a nasty knee injury, terrible stuff. Looked bad. Not career ending, but definitely season ending.

Damn. I’m extremely saddened for Indiana and Oladipo.

Wasn't Oladipo already hurt? That's awful news, dude is one of my favorite guys to watch when he's not playing against us.

Kurucs is killing it right now. he just needs to watch his fouls, he already has 3.

Rodi fastbreak off a miss and then a backdoor dunk. Creating offense out of smarts and hustle. Love it.

Oladipo looks like he dislocated his knee. From the footage it looked like his knee just gave out, that was a non contact injury and he didn't even jump, his leg just buckled. Dude was clearly not healthy. Horrible injury.

Yeah, definitely looked like a dislocation, patellar tendon type of deal. Sad.

I'm pretty sure Dinwiddie gets fouled on 85+% of his drives, but he bitches the refs out so much they only call about 40% of that 85+.

Refs only givin it up now because they got a sideways glance at the foul differential.
