They’re turnaround is impressive as is, but to be on a 9-game win streak without Sengun and with Jalen Green unlocking his potential is just worthy of appreciation.

And yes, FVV deserves a lot of the credit for that turnaround.


We don't play until tomorrow :) but yes.

Damn it, the NBA app showing me Australian dates. Now I don’t have a game to watch today. Lame.

Patty Mills all of a sudden a starter in Miami. Funny that. Would have been perfect here in Orlando.

Because they have a zillion injuries.

He's shooting 31/20.

The Magic can make up for not signing FVV this past summer by signing Jrue Holiday to the same contract this upcoming summer!

This is the way. The only way too (IMO). I would throw as much as possible at him. He has to be THE FIRST call. If he doesn't bite, I'd move on to IHart and Monk (or Tyus if WCJ/Picks can land us a starting guard).

Or… they can sign him next offseason 8-)

I don’t see JRue leaving a contender in Boston unless he really wants an extra bag and we’re the only ones offering. But he’d be a good addition if we can get him.

I’m betting long on Donovan Mitchell being the guy we get to lift us into contender status. I’ll be irrationally pushing the idea from now until it happens.

Massive loss for Miami as they are running out of games to catch up. We just need to beat two of Miami, Philly, Indy, NY to avoid play in.

it's crazy to me that so many other teams have multiple guards/wings that can hit open shots off the dribble but we struggle so much with it.

Klay had a big night in MIA…Back in the starting lineup too but maybe just matchup dependent.

ORL needs to beat them down tonight. Can’t count on TOR to slow NYK- going into deep tank mode to retain their top 6 protected frp…11 straight losses .
