Knicks down 12, heat play the nuggets, hawks down 20. The magic have to win this game.

[GameOver25]

OK boys lets tighten up and put this team away.

[SOUL]

Paolo is off, but Franz is dodging some bullets here with his performance.

The shooting issue is so depressing. Watching other teams, it feels like we are WAY off from the norm... but it cuts both ways because watching the defense of most other teams is also depressing.

This halftime show ….

[KillMonger]

22% from deep and 46% from the FT line isn't going to get it done. Just shameful shooting against a porous defense.

[Knightro]

Magic were 18-26 inside the arc in the first half, that's 69.2%.

Yet they still took 18 threes and made just 4.

[Bensational]

As good as Moe's offense has been, he's been bad on defense.

So bad they built a 14 point lead? I don’t recall many mistakes from him while the lead disappeared- but I wasn’t looking for it so could’ve missed it.

He lazily walked towards Cole's man who was guarded already and JC was wide open for a three, didn't box out JC on a putback play, and stared at him with an open jumper. 7 points directly related to his man and just the overall defense seemed a bit lax.

Not all on Moe - he just needs to be a bit more focused there. Franz and Paolo are the ones that need to set the tone though.

Yeah I clearly wasn’t paying enough attention, haha.

It's certainly not your imagination. We entered tonight 30th/dead last in 3PM, 29th in 3PA, 25th in 3PT%, 28th in FT% (3rd in attempts, so we're hemorrhaging points at the line), and 24th in Turnovers (while 25th in Assists). We're absolutely putrid on the offensive side of the ball. It's hard to overstate how horrid it is. If I was trying to explain it to a non basketball fan, I feel like I'd have to grab their shoulders and violently shake them, screaming at them to understand what those numbers mean and how horrendous we are offensively.

Knew that Sexton prayer was going in

Sigh.....

[3ddman23]

U just continue to miss wide open shoots like this... it's just can't happen

[Last Guardian]

Has anyone noticed we aren't good at shooting?

[eyriq]

Keyonte is outplaying all of our guards. Dayuum

[VFX]

Why is Carter so trash? Tf

[3ddman23]

They are just absolutely killing themselves. This is purely self inflicted
