I feel like Ceruti hyped us up too much in the Bill Simmons podcast. Even with our recent play, I find it tough to see us actually winning a series.

Very reasonable to think we'll win a series at this point. We'll be underdogs though. Would need decent odds to put money on a win.DiplomaticMagic wrote:I feel like Ceruti hyped us up too much in the Bill Simmons podcast.

I like this guy's content, starts at about 1:10:00.
Shows so many little things that happen in the game and schemes/intentions and all the minutiae which goes overlooked in games.. which is why I get so annoyed sometimes about just little things people say who just look at the score or makes or misses and assume X Y Z.
So you are saying Fultz's changed shot is all in his head and his shoulder is structurally fine? If you do a little more research you'll see TOS doesn't always show up on an MRI, and 2nd don't you think our FO would hide Fultz's recurrence of the TOS and saying it came back could end his chances of ever getting a new contract. Look how they've handled other injuries to Magic players. They've never up front. Gary Harris for a recent example. They've been saying he's had a calf injury for the last month. Now they're saying it's plantar fasciitis?zaymon wrote:Audi wrote:zaymon wrote:This is exactly how i predicted Fultz would look like but nobody wanted to listen.
No. You didn't. You didn't believe his three point shooting was for real - along with quite a few other posters here. Congrats. Not even close to the same as predicting setbacks we've seen.zaymon wrote:Last time he was in a contract year he tore his acl after very bad start and i never saw person so happy after such awful injury.
Lol. So he was happy to tear his ACL now? Wtf is this? What's your vendetta here? Where did the bad Markelle touch you?zaymon wrote:Guy have big mental problem and that last interview said he is angry every time he hears its mental. Well thats the reaction of every person with mental problem. Guys like Suggs just mention it without problem and move forward, guys like Fultz just surrender and detach from reality.
You are so off base I honestly have to wonder if you one day decided to just troll on everything Fultz related. Are you clowning everyone? For real man - be honest.
You are the one poster here who i dont see any reason to discuss about Fultz. You are wrong every time and i see zero chance you will change your mind. We can discuss any other topic.
You read that his MRI is clear and every doctor said he is fine as proof of injury. You write nonsense about his shoulder injury this year without even team mentioning it once. You see no dissonance that team list his problem as knee tendinitis and his explosive athletecism is as good as ever. Shoulder doesnt prevent him from dunking with force but prevents him from shooting. You see no false when you hear he says he is a great creator and his shooting is fine. You dont listen when teammates say he has his own thing going on but never mention injury.
You are also living in your own world.
Also dont act like i have something against Markelle. He seems like good person, and i wish him well. Its painful to watch how he cant accept reality. If you dont see the problem you cant solve it.

Feels like they should just get rid of him.

He's definitely not playing himself into the max contract we all once thought he'd easily get. Negotiations might get contentious.

At rim
At FT line

That’s what most people mean when they talk about a three level guy, not someone who lives in the midrange.

Well, that’s good for us if he doesnt get the max

He is extension eligible this summer for what it’s worth.
Suggs is as well.
