It's been depressing to see a team 23rd in defense this year, it just takes away the whole point of scoring better than previous Magic teams.

Nothing but happiness and joy for JI the team and fans for him being back on the court. I've been 1 of the few that haven't given up on him and have been mostly patient while awaiting his return. But let's not sell the rest of the team short. This is the same Celtics team we just beat 2 games in a row in BOSTON on the same weekend so no reason we couldn't beat them at home in January. JIs 10 minutes were great but the rest of the team played well also.

It was a different team. Bol and Moe starting, Kevon and Admiral off the bench. The Celtics were different too and had more/different injuries.

Every game is different, and beating a team before doesn't always impact the next game. The difference in this game, in my opinion, was the buzz and energy from Isaac's return.

Also, I'm seeing a lot of Paulos in the thread. It's Paolo. Let's spread the word.
