Cole's problems are between his ears

Black has no business starting.
He is a better fit than Fultz with Paolo and Franz and just better than Cole because he plays defense. I wouldn't finish games with him though but starting games, why not.

Black is a much better fit. He doesn't need to be ball dominant to make an impact. Better on defense and when he does use a possession he's attacking the basket and getting fouled or shooting a three.

Neither does WCJ, WCJ's problem is playing too soft and missing bunnies.

Goga just seems more efficient and gives us rim protection. Suggs is leading the starters with 0.6 bpg.

Yeah, he's fed up with his role on the team.

The problem is the front office.

That's the problem right now and will continue to be the problem into the future.

I simply do not trust them to make the hard decisions when it comes to this roster.

The Magic have three, possibly four keepers. And literally every other player on the roster could go in the right deal, but they don't really see it that way.

I think the most impressive thing about SGA is how explosive he is. He really gets ahead of whoever is guarding him

Good thing Orlando didn’t move anyone in the last season and a half.

Paolo legit gets triple teamed

Suggs is the real star of this team

Cole Anthony averaging as many BPG as Wendell Carter.

Spoiler: Mosley would look better with an all-NBA guard and shooters surrounding him too.
