Great win tonight for The Magic. You had to love this blowout other than the long delays and free shooting shooting though the later did not matter much.

How bad has Bol been that he couldn’t get in this game?

Forgot this game happened.

Good to see Orlando beat Detroits 3rd string.

Shout out to Paolo for improving on his rebounding over the last two months.

Taking the shout back for not improving his FT shooting the last two months :lol:

(nah, he hits them when they count at least but he splits so many.. I think he'll work on it a lot this offseason though)

For sure. His focus should just be improving as a shooter this summer. FTs, off the bounce, from distance, etc. That’ll be the key to becoming a superstar for him.

Great game aside from Paolo’s foul shooting and the delays. Everyone had moments in the game. As mentioned by another poster, what’s the story with Bol? DNP’s are starting to stack up. Maybe the tunnel vision stuff finally got him benched.
You look confused...let me fill you in.

Goga appears to be a great backup big. I like having Mo as the 3rd stringer for a different look as well.

Paolo is close to 40% from 3 in the last 15 games.

Dallas lost again. I am wondering if the domino is gonna fall and Kyrie won't resign with them. Or Doncic wants out. Let's do some work Coach Mosley!

Crazy how bad the east was and how much better the parity is now when we made the playoffs at 33-40 in 2019 and people thought that was a decent team.

9th and 10th best teams were 23-42 and 25-47.

Absolutely love what Q Rich says about wanting our players to play to win games down the stretch.
