Eyyyyyy! Good to see you bro! Don’t worry MoSOULey, ignore the haters. If Malone and Jenkins can get fired it’s just gonna embolden calls for coach’s head.

Paul Porter should get to leave when he wants. What an epic mistake by the magic.

the offense needs much more structure. it's pure chaos


It's how it's always looked with Cole, AB, and CoJo being our lead guards and having streaky shooters. Some days we make shots, some days we don't. There's no cure-all until we get better personnel. Wouldn't mind an offensive minded assistant if we actually get a competent lead guard that's better than CoJo and more consistent shooting.

Mosely is probably safe this season. Next year when the salaries are high he'll be expected to win. Right now, he has a lot of players on rookie contracts.

I was tired of the constant negativity more than coach stuff. Every fandom does that for their coach outside of like 1-2, which is why all of the complaints cracks me up. There are no "good" coaches apparently. Spo is a regular season fraud. Brown, Budenholzer, Malone, Nurse actually suck. My point has ALWAYS been that coaches actually have very little variance in how good a team looks outside of the playoffs, which is where you can work your magic, otherwise.. it's just grass is greener theorizing. It's mostly personnel and waiting for young players to be plus players.

I asked the same thing last night. Coach has no control of this team's offense.


I feel like alot of 3 pt shooters get their shots out of the defense reacting, more than set plays for shooters

Unless you're a Klay Thompson, but we've had 2-3 weeks of good Caleb Houstan, whose could be arguably the first volume 3 pt shooter we've had in rotation since Coach Mose came to the Magic

I'm willing to cut him some slack in this area, and the team for that matter

Cole either got fingered in the eye or hit below the belt.
