He was actually statistically quite a bit worse through his first 8 games than has been Suggs.

Man if teams can just turn up the defense some and we can't match it, we're in for a long year.

We really do give up a lot of offensive boards

Can't force turnovers, can't box out for rebounds, and can't consistently hit shots in a half court setting.

Just don't get blown out. Tired of us playing with subpar energy at home.

The offense just died. We aren't even generating decent looks.

Ball movement was so much better in the first half.

The Chuma call? I honestly did see some arm, so I think it was a legit call.

This guard play has been abysmal. Very disappointed in Suggs and Cole tonight. They are missing shots and I can live with that but they are doing a horrible job initiating the offense and getting in the paint. This is where Markelle is missed.

Thought he got top of the ball and they called the body but you're probably right.

2 FGs in the quarter, yuck.

Led by two to start the half and trail by 20 entering the 4th.

Yeah it was pretty bad. I can't remember seeing an uglier quarter than that. Just sad.

Other than the occasional lucky win like they got in Minnesota, this team is going to get blown out most nights. Not just beat but destroyed. It's impossible to compete when at least 40% of your playing rotation sits out every game with "injuries".

Boston's veteran talent far exceeds ours along with them having two legit shot makers however I haven't been impressed with a single thing they've done tonight which makes me a tad angry cause I felt Orlando could've been more competitive if we just had played with the same level of energy that we played with in the 1st half.

We've played a lot of games bunched together so this is probably fatigue. Feel sorry for any of y'all who went to watch this live tonight.
