They had a chance to take a 10 plus point lead in that quarter...

Not a great end to the quarter, but not disastrous. Those Markelle buckets were big, shoutout to him.

I didn’t love Fultz taking that last shot, but he’s doing well creating good looks for himself and converting them.

Gotta give Fultz credit on offense this series, he’s found a way to play within his abilities within the team. Defense leaves a lot to be desired but offensively he has worked with what he’s got.

JI hasn't looked the same for a little while now. Wonder if he's battling some kind of injury.

No engine to run the 2nd lineup except Fultz.

We need to get an engine this sunmer.

Despite how the quarter ended, GREAT scoreline to finish the Q, we'd all have taken that at the start of the game

Fultz just scored our last two buckets no problem with that last shot. They tried to get it to Franz but couldn’t. Cavs doing a good job denying Franz much space.

I'm counting on Cole Anthony for some scoring in the 2nd Quarter. The Magic have got to stretch this lead out to the point where Cleveland does not want to get on a plane to Boston.

There is just something off with issac when he doesn't have a sure fire superstar to guard. He kinda just looks lost when he doesn't have a specific person to focus on.

Fultz bailing us out TBH, we couldn't score to save our lives

two tough shots made over JI

All things considered, solid quarter. Need to establish more ball movement and rebound better on the defensive end.

I was fine with Fultz taking that shot tbh. Apparently Mitchell went to the locker room, but then again he did that last game

Yeah it's unfortunate, near the end of the season I thought he was playing like our best player for stretches, but he's been disappointing on both ends this series overall. I wonder what's going on. Could just be fatigue from playing so much after playing so little for so long.

Yeah he's been pretty ineffective on defense this series which was a big surprise. Just struggling with the pace

Looked like Mitchell ran straight to the locker room after the end of the 1st.
