Cle bench hollering in our home court. Guess that grease blocked Martins ears.

If you’re Jeff, How can you watch these games and look at these stat sheets night after night and defend your utter lack of effort to improve this roster over the past few years.

Paolo and Franz played okay tonight. Everyone else just showed up for some cardio.
Goga hasn't been good for a while now, although has last game was pretty decent.
Disagree. He has been pretty good lately. He did have a rough stretch recently though.
It could be the injury, but he has been struggling for the last two months or so. There is a reason he lost his starting spot.

May need?
Dude this team has needed serious moves for 2.5 years. This is the last summer we won’t be locked into our tax’d roster.
I don’t trust the FO to even know what is needed which is sad at this point.
Their bench outscored us 53 to 9 in the 4th Q. Remember that number. 53 to 9! Many people argues our core of Paolo and Franz are not efficient enough or star powered enough. But the problem I think that is more critical for us to contention is our role players surrounding. We do not have shooting and we do not have enough scoring, and those attributes are actually the key component for those guys, (3 and D) But this Magic team does not have it. Cleveland was in a Game 7 with the Magic last season. But this season? Cleveland is a Championship contender while this Magic team is more likely in the play in. We regressed. This is not a good trajectory

The role players are definitely the problem.

Nobody is beating an insane shooting performance like that, so simply losing this game isn't necessarily the issue. That's the nature of the NBA, sometimes a team goes off and you just auto-lose even if you play a good game. It's our own futility in comparison, on national tv no less, that's the salt in the wound.
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.
