Man, watching Cole play shows how good a Simons could be for the Magic.

Playing well though! Paolo, Franz and Goga going well. God I wish we had some better guards though...


It's very slow. Works on Chrome barely but not on Firefox.
The app is humming on Android
Not on mine

Paolo has created like the last five possessions for the Magic he draws so much attention

This trade wasn't some conspiracy - it was just a GM wanting AD bad enough where in most people's eyes he overpaid by a long shot to get him.

The flow looks better when Paolo isn't taking 20 bad shots.

Having someone who could spread the floor around Franz and Paolo but be able to create their own shots when need be would do wonders for the offense. It is so clear to see.

This Kings lineup is going to have a lot of problems defensively.

Every single guy in their starting lineup is pretty much a negative defender.

This is the Paolo we need. He needs to be more LeBron than Carmelo

Paolo playing superb, and what a difference when we make open shots.

Best they've looked since Paolo / Franz return?

Kings have like no identity Derozan and Lavine just take turns trying to score
