36 second chance points I believe ties the team record. And against Anthony Davis.

It looks like we closed down the Locked-on Lakers podcast for the day. I was looking forward to their post-game recap.

DLo dominated in LA. Last night, he was 4-17 and 1-10 from 3.

Those two guys have to be our best players every night and we have to play through them to be successful in any real way. We go as far as those two guys want to take us. Loved their aggression last night. Great minutes from Bitadze and Black. Those guys stepped up and came through in their roles. Fun night in Orlando. Love seeing the sad wave of yellow leave the arena early.
We are legit positioning Franz to be our first option. Really interesting.


I don’t necessarily agree with this. I feel like Paolo is the first option. Yes, Franz is taking more shots but not only is Paolo taking shots, he is getting to the line, getting others involved and taking the last shot in a game. These are the characteristics of a first option.

Remember, when some of you were all down on The Magic earlier this week?


Don't fret. They will be down on The Magic next week.

Had to work saw it just now.

my takes:

-people asked how we can win 38-41 games?outplaying opposite teams like we did,especially contenders who thought they could come here playing 50% of their strenght and would be enough.

-mvp have been the refs,cause with the usual way they threat the lakers this would have been a close game and you know what happens against lbj in those cases.

i mean,everyone basically played awesome for us,but if they not give the fouls to davis and they start to collegiate as usual with 12 Ft vs 42 we are not gonna get a W,so kudos to them

I think the starting job will be here for WCJ when he comes back

Our defense was ranked 3rd with him starting, and he has more a 3 pt jumper, the expectation is that WCJ doesnt play as poorly offensively as he did to start the season


It depends what the record is when the time comes. If the Magic are doing fantastic, how do you justify making any changes?

You forget... in the 21 draft we have a #8 pick who in a redraft a lot are picking at #1.


Facts! I remember realgm pooping all over that pick too but now I'm hindsight now we all love it.

I can't remember who called it but when we first got Mo off the streets after being thrown away by the celtics someone on here said good hopefully it's bc we're being his brother later in that year's draft. Whomever that was you deserve your roses homie!
