Vuc with 15pts on 7/9 fg, 10 reb, 4 ast. I thought he played very well against Dwight. Didn't back down from him and forced him into numerous turnovers by poking at the ball. You could tell Vuc wanted to take on the challenge. Also made Dwight pay for leaving him open on jumpers. I wish he would have tried posting Dwight up though... see if he can finesse his way to scoring or drawing fouls on a defensive center.

Another solid game from Harkless... 15pts on 6/10 fg, 5 stl (!), 1 blk... he was very engaged on defense and aggressive on offense. I've noticed him trying to dunk it more compared to earlier in the season. Good to see him have his confidence back finally. Kind of funny to see him take a heat check 3 after making his first 3. :lol: .

O'Quinn played well defensively. 8 pts on 4/13 fg, 8 reb, 3 blk in 16 minutes. Tried too hard to force shots under the basket when he was surrounded by taller players and way too many fouls again.

A little disappointed with Harris tonight. He was settling for mid-range jumpshots from the start and seemed lazy at times on defense. Terrence Jones went for 17 pts on 8/10 fg, 11 reb. A lot of that was on Harris. Lately he seems to be giving guys too much room and he's late to put a hand up when defending outside the paint. Good to see him get a couple blocks this game though since he's come up empty the previous five games. Hopefully he goes for 20+ against the Spurs on Saturday.

I've never been so uninterested and indifferent watching a Magic game.

I actually filmed a guy infront of me telling Howard to wear a condom and him saying he has 10 kids, and Dwight replying with "I have 4,*laughs*". It went on for about 2-3mins before Amway security came to tell the guy to keep it down.

I've never uploaded a video before, but definitely will do. Isn't the best of sound quality due to it being so loud because of music etc, but will definitely post here for you guys.

What ever happened to the rule, that flopping would earn a technical foul?? :dontknow:

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.

Harkless pissing "Magic Fans" off with another good game, but yeah he isn't very good and wont get better Man you guys are going to overreact when he has a bad one. :lol:

Tough match up for Tobes although I like that he finally showed a pulse on defense with 3 blks even though he let Jones go off. He settled for jumpers a little too much imo as well. Weak overall performance.

Vuc with another solid game against D-Hoe. There isnt much more to say.

Nobody is pissed that Harkless has been having some great nights. In fact, everyone is extremely happy that the dude has decided to show some pulse. He still has a looong way to go, but at least he's showing us something.

Just too soon, it's still an open wound for most fans.

In five or ten years, maybe it would be fitting but right now, no way. Someone in the Magic promotions office needs some time away to re-think their strategy.
