I missed the game live but watching on replay and JB has been playing the right way these past two games. Movinh the ball earlier and getting it back late. More people are involved and he still gets his numbers. Much better.

The basketball gods clearly agree with you because we should’ve lost the game on that play or Cade’s jumper or Cade’s jumper the trip before.

I think we gotta close out the series first before we discuss anything. I don't think we're good enough as a team to overlook anyone, unfortunately.

That is true but the Magic can't hit the broad side of a barn the shooting is G-League ish.

Our bench has been absolute trash this series except for game one Payne. Mitch and Deuce, in particular, have been pretty invisible. It's surprising and disappointing. Not sure what's going on with them.

Wright and Precious would have probably given us more, in hindsight.

So 3-1 lead - Am i on the only watching the other playoff series looking at the TV crazy. There is not 1 series as physical as this one. Not sure if the NBA wants this or what. But this is straight football both ways. My My...back to the 90's what a day to be alive.

Buddy I was joking around with you. But the magic have played defense at a much higher level then us all damn season. Comparing our defense vs the pistons against the magic vs Celtics is **** hilarious though. You’ve got to be more drunk than me.


Tha Magic are a much better team than the Pistons. Think about that: Banchero missed 40 games, Wagner missed 20 games, Suggs missed like 50 games and Mo Wagner missed half the season. Imagine your stars missing so many games and you best complementary players out for season and yet they finished just 3 wins below the Pistons. If the Magic and Pistons played each other all healthy, the Pistons would struggle to win a single game. The Magic are being led by 2 6'10 all-star forwards that are very difficult to stop and they have the second best defense in the entire NBA. That is despite their best defender missing like 50games and their best bench player as well.

Magic >>>> Pistons

And while the Boston-Magic game was close througout, the Celtics were really leading the entire way more or less. Magic did a good job keeping it close but one never had the impression they could win. I know some are dreaming up scenarios were we go 7 with the Celtics are take the series....you are all setting yourself up for a big dissapointment. The Magic stay home on every possession, letting Boston go 1 on 1 each time--very good strategy but only applicable because almost their entire team consists of good defenders. We on the other side will be helping out left and right letting White, Porzingis, Pritchard rain down open 3-pointers on us all game long.


brother why u watching the playoffs if you have this defeated mindset? If you don't think the Knicks are playing different defensively in the playoffs then they were in the reg season, idk what to tell you.

I feel like Harris got away with some garbage in the first half but the 2nd half made up for it.

I don't mind the violence at all. They wanna chirp and play physical that's cool it's a two way street.

They're lucky that there aren't any goons in this group because someone would have gotten clubbed already for all that jawing with KAT.
