SMH. Seriously tot he dude that says just one game AFTER the birth of your first child?

Oh yeah not to mention the fact that it's 3-4 days after the birth wherein the mother can go home from the hospital, unless Vuc is a total A$$hat that won't even come near his baby, his body might not have adjusted to the no sleep and stress from waking up all the time from the baby's crying.

Give him this day-off. The birth of your first born is like nothing else.

( can someone give that youtube clip of an ex-NBA Euro who was interviewed why he allowed a player to see his newqborn child over playing in their playoffs )

Where is his professionalism? We should trade him ASAP for a 2nd round pick...

Whiteside missed like an entire week of games, Vuc deserves at least a day to chill with his first born. Sucks it didn't happen against the Suns or something, but thems the breaks. Next man up!

Lol at yall getting on that poster. Yeah, the adjustment when the baby wakes up during the night is tough. Nik may not get any good rest for a minute. Maybe he thinks the mother is just going to miraculously be 100% and full of energy and gusto and will do everything and Nik won't play a part at all. LOL.

I agree Nik should be given time off. But he is a millionaire who's wife just had her first baby. You know they have family over to help, since he will be going on the road soon. So let's not act like he is up all night.

Sure he will have help. He may also be the type to want to be involved in everything and could be up at night. It's the first baby, going home for the first night. Yeah this one game can take a back seat.

Not all dads are the same. Is he one of those that changes diapers in the middle of the night or does he let mom/nanny/whoever do it for him? Will he wake up to try and get the baby back to sleep or is he one to sleep in another room so his sleep won't get interrupted?

Who knows really.

Without our best scorer and passer? Yeaaaaa nooo.
His usage is 27.5% so we'll have more opportunities for the other guys. Hopefully Fournier and Simmons don't try to hijack the game with hero ball.

WEll... All I can say is this will certainly be a meaningful game.

1.) To those who wanted Vuc gone for a 2nd rounder.. we can finally see how our offense and defense will look without him. Will AG,JI and Bamba score more points or will they score below average due to Vuc not being the center of the opposing team's defense?

2.) Will we finally see Evan passing to another Magic player not named Vuc or will he chuck away knowing he doesn't have anyone he likes to pass to?

3.) Will Bamba need an oxygen mask before the 1st half is over or naaah it's all good, he's in foul trouble so he doesn't play that much.

Sad. Won't surprise me at all if they lay an egg. This is not part of the coach or front office's plan.

I hope the players show some heart. At least give us that.

He didn’t have the length WeHam want.

Remember in basketball it’s not about skill but length. Cannot teach length. At least that’s the WeHam philosophy
