What just happened? This team really need to get their emotions in check.

There's almost no scenario where the Magic are going to be all that competitive, much less actually win a game, with Paolo, Franz and Suggs out.

It sucks, but it is what it is. Rampaging about the performance without those three guys is odd.

Yeah, I really don’t think they will make trades though. If they were trying to contend I could see it but they aren’t. They are still building. I am pretty sure they would rather call this season a loss rather than make a shortsighted move that hurts their plan.


If we wanna salvage our season and get proper PO experience and wins, we need to do something about Moes ( apparent season ending injury) , bench guard help and another scorer.


Salvage the season for what reason? They aren’t trying to contend and they already have playoff experience. And they aren’t winning with this injured team. I don’t believe they think a trade is worth it. Just being honest.

Suggs might matter on defense

They aren’t nba players that are paid by the organization?

A lot of them don’t look like it at all.

If we’re going to try and do a 3 point contest with other teams, we might as well just quit.

Of course, but those 3 are on rookie contracts.
JI, KCP and Cole are paid combine over 70m for doing what? Have they managed to combine for over 30pts in one game this season? Maybe once.

Next step. Lets be honest, our lineup is still full of holes right now. We cant plug those in through the draft cuz rookies typically needs 3-4 years before they maximize their contributions.

Experience in winning a PO series? Baby steps. We never had that before since Dwight-era.

The Magic are just completely frazzled. And it's understandable

Because it is our players that are losing their emotions. Miami is happy right now, everything is going their way.

I would say this is a bad take, but I know for a fact you understand basketball at a high level and are just doing what amounts to schtick.
