This is without question winnable. This is a game where if the magic lose its all on them and nothing to do with Portland.

Both by Fultz…
Fine print disclaimer for Fultz:
I am high on Markelle Fultz. Yes I understand he is not perfect and needs to shoot more and better and turn the ball over less. I would really like to see him play one more year… and I did and he sucks time to move on.

I'd rather see them dunk than brick 3-pointers.

He’s also a faster decision maker. He’s not pounding the air out of the ball.


He's always going to play good on this side of the country but physically he looks great. That Paolo/Jalen fastbreak is going to be an issue for teams. Two brutes, no fear going straight downhill.

It doesn't really matter against a bad team like this... So the Magic can experiment.

hopefully we run with our starting lineup longer in this game than the rockets game before it got blown out

portland has a good home crowd, they've managed to stick around, & have good enough depth

Anthony is a crazy rebounder.

cole anthony is so much better and more confident with picking his shots, you can tell he practices the shots he takes

edit: my stream is behind and of course he takes an ill-advised shot, atleast he got his own board

That should have easily been a 10 point plus quarter lead.
