And most of those plays looked like they were off the Skiles script.

It's clear that Skiles doesn't run a system that gets the most out of Elf. And given that we're a losing team, it's a fair question to ask who exactly we are getting the most out of?

Fournier? Honestly the only person that has an improved role. Jason Smith.

in a league that is shifting to the 2/3/and 4 being interchangeable.

Skiles is old school and is unwilling to change what he does. Man, I would take Luke Walton over him.

Would you take Jacque Vaughn over him?

I can't figure out how this team couldn't recognised when someone is hot in the team

The Magic are definitely not making the playoffs. Definitely not with losses like this one on their own damn home court.

Who knows? Maybe The Magic win the Lottery the year they are not supposed too.

Blow this team up, like i said last month we got too many soft losers on this team that can't play with toughness aside from some lil spurts. But oh wait we already blew it up, oh well happy birthday RDV!

I have high expectations for this Skiles press conference. Better have guns blazing tonight.

Skiles had Tobias traded for two of his former starters.

I don't want to overreact to one game but actually the last heat game i saw whiteside had some offensive chops. It might be worth it.

I'm glad that we're getting frequent outsiders coming in and saying the same thing. I'm sick of the guys around here that grew up loving Skiles play in a Magic jersey that now think he does no wrong.

where are these guys you speak of?

No joke, give me JV back.

Shabazz Napier.

Skiles has got to go if we plan on making a splash this fa. I mean who is really looking forward to play for him?

Yeah but think about what you're saying -- you're actually making a strong argument for Skiles' offense. The team has been pretty good offensively lately, very good at times. Tongiht, Elf had a good game and people are like "See this is what Elf can do without Skiles limiting him." But how did the team do?!? The offense was horrendous tonight, and when that happens, Elf is able to free-style, and we lose by double digits. Looks a lot like last year under JV. Woo hoo.

This team look sad without AG and Oladipo and only one of them was actually dressed and played in the game.

Napier must have been wearing 4 inch heels when they measured him cuz that dude is no taller than 5'7". Seriously. He is Spud Webbs or Barea's height.

This was a classic Vuc-a-bitch game. Man that was awful. One of the worst games I've ever seen him play. This team without Dipo looks like a trainwreck most of the time.
