Also for the record, I didn't have Garland in my top 15 of the 2019 draft.

Franz's +/- is always pretty good because he gets less minutes with Fultz, Harris and Banchero who are lousy as a trio (-2.1 NET).

Fultz/Banchero as a pairing has been really poor.


So you’re saying that Franz’s numbers benefit because he plays more minutes against bench players?

His dunk last game vs Detroit and the one he got against Pelicans one season before are ones of the best ingame dunks I have seen by a Magic player

Yes, that’s part of it.

But also because he’s simply away from Fultz and Banchero as neither one of them have had a tremendously positively impact when they’re on the court this season.

Nothing to be ashamed of. The first part of the season was unfortunate with injuries but since then this has been a legitimately decent team.

Shoot.... Definitely nothing to be ashamed of. Unless something brain numbingly obvious come along.... There is no rush. Our team with... A stud sophomore... Rehabbing his game sophomore.... Stud rookie... Reclamation project C.... Reclamation injured PG....and a bunch of other hopeful talents... There is no reason to believe that things can't get better. Finishing the season strong proves the possibility of success and we won't have to start making wholesale deals where we may or may not fix the problem. Like... Serge ibaka. Haha.

We are not in a mode of desperation ... So... We should make sure we make choices that will allow growth... Manage salaries.... And everything else in between.

Add the best talent that we can with the available draft picks ... Find talents on FA that fills gaps... And see what a possible healthy season can result in. And yes.... Why not see if JI can make a comeback before cutting ties. We never know. Haha

From the look of the ... Playoff window starts next season.... With hopefully opening for contention shortly afterwards.

For as much as this young team has been competing after the crazy injuries we had, some of the discussions lately have been mind-numbingly tiring.

I’m getting the feeling that Cavs are going to turn it up in the 2nd half. If Banchero wants to average 20 points, he might want to step up and be more efficient. But man, this team plays really hard.

The backcourt battle is fun tonight.

I think Franz is moving towards Tim Duncan mastery of the backboard, but in a totally different way

It’s absolutely brutal.

I can handle the tanking debates but the nonstop Fultz stuff is starting to get to me a bit.
