I still think we need to really focus on getting Paolo and Franz initiating closer to the basket

He will be fine I am not worried about him at all. He was icing his lower body. If you go back and look at his box scores he does have tough game stretches but he will be fine. Bensastional made a great point last night. Magic don’t always throw great kickout passes to shooters. Need to be better and he will adjust
Fine print disclaimer for Fultz:
I am high on Markelle Fultz. Yes I understand he is not perfect and needs to shoot more and better and turn the ball over less. I would really like to see him play one more year… and I did and he sucks time to move on.

Bane isn't playing well, but he really isn't being used well either.

Not been on here recently as don't have the mental fortitude for the type of posts I guess are being posted regularly atm. But thought it was worth popping into the game thread to note that seeing Miles Bridges on the court is always upsetting.

Nothing is easy when you're struggling, but we're not exactly helping ourselves.

If we lose from up 20 under 7 minutes, somebody's head has to roll.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

Bane still finding 7 assists on a bad shooting night is helpful.

Really, physically, I'm not sure there would be a better archetype to guard LaMelo.
