Paolo gave the most uninspiring answer ever in that pregame interview when asked about what he likes in Orlando lol.

Once the guards came back last year, everything was fine.

We all know and feel that this season is different and am excited.

My Prediction: The Magic win 47 Games and get the 6th Seed.

this place is going to be unbearable if we lose and Jabari outplays Paolo.. I mean, it hasn't happened and it's almost there already :lol:


It's always usually the people who celebrate which rookie is the best the quickest too. All 3 look pretty promising to be honest.


I just want to be clear for the record that I was entirely tongue in cheek and mocking of the likely overreactions :lol:

I like it. I'd say this would be in the 97th percentile of likely outcomes. Bold

They asked him if he has any spots in the city he likes and he said no he just likes staying inside.

No big deal obviously, but it was still so uninspiring to hear lol.

I just worry they'll make crazy bad shots all game long. I'm not at all worried about Jabari being better than Paolo. Dude is a shooter and thats it. Doesn't do anything else offensively. If he starts crossing people and dunking and draining 3's and dropping dimes then I'll worry he's better than Paolo.

47 wins only happens if we stay healthy and:
Paolo improves a bit
Franz improves a bit
Suggs hits 35% of his 3's
And JI plays 65+ games at ~20mpg

That last one is the biggest question mark obviously

It's possible but not sure how likely...
