It's the Vuc and Fournier show.

Be patient Magic fans, Ross is just getting used to this new found freedom, he's going to light it up very soon for y'all.

Magic players after the game: "wtf, we still suck?"

You can tell there tons of chemistry problems. Vuc and Evan freezing everyone out, AG got pissed and blew everyone off going on his own, etc. When things get tough everyone gets selfish. Just a mess of a team.

Avoided the honeymoon win. Nice. Now lets get a good losing streak going.

Lillard still available?

Green/Watson/DJ driving the tank. I liked what I saw in the first half though.

A rough 4th quarter but it was nice to see Terrance Ross and a lineup with a real 2 and 3 and AG at 4 tonight.

What do you expect? He can't hit a free throw and keeps turning the ball over. Vogel wants to win.

Everybody is missing free throws.

But you literally post to troll, so...

How am I trolling? Can you better explain why Vogel benched him? FYI Payton has proven he consistently shoots worse at the stripe than his teammates.

Just because you don't like me being critical of Payton (just like NBA coaches Skiles and Vogel) doesn't mean I troll.

I don't know about you guys but I think it's a small miracle Mario got the minutes he got after trading for a wing. Hoping our wing situation stabilizes in the off-season and we get a legit backup 4 for AG.

Give him a break it's one game lol.

>55% TS in 3 of the last 4 seasons, he has the body of work and large enough sample size to prove he's a shot maker. He's just sort of inconsistent

it's really very fortunate he had a good game tonight. that should encourage more minutes.

Perfect tank loss.

Decent first game from Ross other than his shooting. Hezonja was very good on both ends I thought.

One or both of them need to go ASAP. They clearly are in love with each other on the basketball court.

Because you literally just watched 4/5 players miss tons of shots, commit turnovers and miss free throws as well. I don't see how it's justified for a player that was 2-7 off the bench with 2 turnovers himself, but hey, I guess Vogel is a genius.

MagicStarwipe · Post #538 » by **MagicStarwipe** » Fri Feb 24, 2017 2:35 am

Just a few tweaks to our core of Vucevic and Fournier and we'll be ready to contend. Thanks Rob.

Lol at you changing your "Favorite team" to Orlando

I'm a Ross stan but you take it a step further :lol:

Mauro Pedrosa · Post #540 » by **Mauro Pedrosa** » Fri Feb 24, 2017 2:35 am

Payton, Fournier and Vuc can go.

Ross-Hezonja would be a nice wing tandem. Both have potential as two-way players
