Osceola Magic 2025 Game Thread

[CZ Eddie]

Btw, Oscola Stuff is yellow.

FYI Osceola won Game 1 of the G League Finals against the Stockton Kings Tuesday night - Myron Gardner went for a game-high 30pts and McClung had 29 and 7 assists.

It's a three game series, so they can close it out with one more win - Game 2 is tonight in Stockton at 10pm on ESPNNews or ESPN+ for anybody that wants to check it out.

Let's get this going.

Magic looking good with a few seconds left in the first half.

[CZ Eddie]

Good first half - it's staying a close game and keeping things interesting!

McClung already with 20 points in the first half lol

yeah they turned up the intensity on both ends the last 7-8 minutes of Q2. Glad there wasn't a fourth on Morales there, gonna need him.

So with game 3... means Mac wont be available for the 1st ATL game...

[mccluskey]

yeah would've been nice to see Osceola win so Mac and Thompson could get some PT Sunday.

losing Castleton to a 10-day right before the playoffs (and Robert Baker to Euroleague earlier in the reg szn) took out most of Osceola's size and interior defense. Stockton took advantage of that in a major way last night, gonna be interesting to see if the Magic can counter Monday and hold on for the chip.

thanks for the heads-up, I hadn't seen that news

[CZ Eddie]

Yeah, good for Colin. I guess the ten-day contracts worked well for him.

So with game 3... means Mac wont be available for the 1st ATL game...

Our first play-in game is on Tuesday.
The NBA will let the Magic call him up for our play-in and playoff run, won't they?

You cant be in a PO roster if you dont have a NBA contract right?

IDK? But this is the time of year when unguaranteed two-year contracts are handed out left and right.

I know if a player is not on your team, you can't sign them this close to the playoffs.
But not sure how that works if they're on your team as a two-way player.
If not, then the NBA *should* allow it.
