2024-2025 NBA Playoffs Round 1, Game 2: (7) Orlando Magic at (2) Boston Celtics - 7pm ET

There’s only 2 who’s for sure the core. Paolo/Franz.

I don’t trust Wepark to biodiesel this roster.

[DiplomaticMagic]

That was such a bad watch, that game was very winnable but we have too much garbage players.

My keepers are

Paolo
Franz
Suggs
Moritz
Isaac (I believe he can get to his form last year)

Everybody else can kick rocks.

[IllMagic04]

The adjustments within this series are pretty meaningless. The Magic are getting swept or maybe snaking one of the two upcoming home games.

The bigger question is who are the for sure keepers moving forward?

I have a bad feeling the Magic's front office feels much more strongly about certain guys than they should as long-term pieces.

For sure:
P5
Wagners
Suggs
Black
Houstan
Goga
TDS

I’m sorry. I’d move Black. He’s has upside but he’s just not the right fit.

I’d move Goga and TDS as well for the right deal

I actually thought we played most of this game decently. They got to the line more and hit a bunch of threes early in the third while we bricked.

[ogmagicfan]

Paolo & Franz are my only keepers, everyone else is available for the right price

I'd preferiably like to keep Suggs, but if we have to move him to make that big upgrade at guard I'll do it

[KillMonger]

Since you're doing hockey-like substitutions, next game no Cole or Gary..... AB Caleb gets those minutes

I missed the post game presser. Anyone see it and was there anything noteworthy from it?

AB draws fouls at a higher rate than Franz for 2 consecutive years.

i think management sees suggs and black as backcourt tandem after kcp’s last guaranteed year next year.

Black needs another year to be reliable, his body still isnt mature.

I’d move TDS first than AB. Tds is pretty disappointing for a senior rookie.

Goga is ok, good 3rd string.

Definitely have to move WCJ for a rim defending big to complement Paolo.



For sure:
P5
Wagners
Suggs
Black
Houstan
Goga
TDS

Another game with poor defense

[eyriq]

I'd play

CoJo/KCP/AB
Paolo/Franz/JI
WCJ/Goga

That's it

[Cammo101]

This game further clarified two things for me…

1. KCP got that Jokic bump and used it to get overpaid by a dumb front office.

2. The modern NBA is so much harder if you can’t shoot. Watching Boston move the ball crisply while we played iso ball to get contested mid-range shots was painful to watch.

[OrlandoDream]

What an absolute putrid performance from the supporting cast. Like its embarrassing how little they help. KCP is a bonafide bum. Complete miss of a signing and awful fit for this team. The offseason cant come soon enough. Thank God this only two more games of watching this atrocious roster.

[Skin]

Are we done with Jeff Weltman's incompetancies yet?

[RichCollab]

Paolo shows up every game in the playoffs. Also, Franz is pretty solid too. I feel great about both of them.

Franz needs to figure out his 3 and I feel he will.

Suggs seems like a safe 3rd core member for at least another season or two.

After that, pretty sure everyone and all draft capital is on the table. AB started to show a little something in his 2nd playoff game. I hope we keep him but understand if we have to move him to get the right pieces around Paolo, Franz, and Suggs.

I watch a guy like Dillon Brooks actually contributing to his team and can't help but think 'why can't Weltman bring in a vet like that?'. The bar is really low and it's beyond frustrating at this point. And yeah, yeah... 'that's what KCP was supposed to be'... but he's not and that's all that matters. It's his job to bring in the right guys and he has failed outside of a few draft picks. Where is our Pritchard (26th pick and now 6MOTY)? Where is our Lu Dort (undrafted starter)? Where is our Desmond Bane (30th pick)? Outside of a few lotto picks, what has he really added???

Instead of overpaying a statistical stud like Hartenstein, he instead went with KCP and resigning a bunch of guys who didn't deserve extensions. Just disgusting. I'd be pissed if I was Paolo, Franz, and Suggs.

[SHAQ32]

Anthony Black played 23 minutes and didn't record a single assist or three.

Meanwhile, he didn't slow down any of Boston's guards. What is he out there for again?

"Bbbbut he's getting solid playoff experience!"
