I hope someone sees Lowry taking a charge and doesn't even jump, just run right through his weak ass and check him like it's hockey. He's a perfect embodiment of a flaw in the game certain players have chosen to take advantage of over the last 20 years and it's ruining the game

Kawhi is prone to hit some of those shots, but he's making him work hard.

Nice to see Fournier return to his early season form shooting wise

I hope he does it before then, im seriously sick of that guy

Forget T-Mac. There is a free throw shooting Dwight mocking him.

Still, that isn’t what we brought him in for and overall I can’t be anything but happy with MCW.

That's all we can hope for. I'm very excited for AG's defensive potential going forward.

Come on man. It’s okay to have personal favorites but you can’t defend what we have seen for this nearly 2.5 playoff games.


You can’t deny the defensive scheme against him either. Can’t have it both ways.

This is the playoffs. You have to expect that and do better than this if you want the long term mega contract everyone wants to give him.

Vuc is so scared out there. It’s like he forgot how to play basketball.

Iwundu is such a pro. Still arguing a call with a ref from two plays ago.

I don’t think he’s scared. He just can’t do anything in this matchup.

It's crazy that it's our bench that's keeping us in this game

And this is the Magic, who weren’t supposed to be here with this roster and it’s current development. If we had shooters around Vuc they would pay a big price. We don’t.

What does that have to do with his poor passing?
