Option 1 PA guy is terrible.

Wendell is absolutely balling

It's incredible that the NBA has allowed preseason games to be cut from ~8 to ~4 and then players still don't play... It's rampant throughout the league too.

Think it has more to do with gamesmanship since we’re facing Miami opening night.

The Miami announcer just said Wendell sets at least one dirty screen per game.

We got “Wen Da Hell - Did He Get So Good” tonight. Dell in beast mode!

How can we get Paul Porter back? Also, love the redesign. The best jerseys since the originals.

Beede reported that there are two finalists.
One guy is calling this game, and the other guy is calling Thursday’s game. They’ll decide who gets it after Thursday.
Option 1’s voice is awful. Like nails to a chalkboard.

That was beautiful Franz

Franz showing Jaques that there is levels to this!

Franz looks almost as big as Paolo now

Can we inbound the ball?

It’s just preseason but JI getting scored on isn’t a good sign. Before last season he didn’t let that stuff happen

Darth Magic · Post #37 » by **Darth Magic** » Sun Oct 12, 2025 10:25 pm

I've seen guys finish 4-5 shots over JI in the first quarter. I see no lift. No explosiveness defensively. I don't see it!

We’re trying out a new ‘Let’s Go Magic’ beat?
No, thank you.

I’m not seeing many/any new wrinkles in the offense from Tyus’ passing yet, but maybe I’m missing where he’s helping stretch the margins because we are scoring better in general this preseason.

Penda looks ready to take over Isaac’s role. I’m ready to embrace that transition.
