The future is now. :banghead:

Please be a blowout loss. We don't need a victory to mess up the tank and we don't need a moral victory to tempt our management into making a delusional hail mary trade.

This is a loss, 2nd game of B2B, beat a top tier EC playoff team in game one...

if we were actually competing for PO spot this would be the classic "Let Down" game.

Just don't embarrass us.

Sentiment here is tank at all costs so.....I'm thinking we're going on a 5 game win streak until the Houston game.

OrlandO · Post #12 » by **OrlandO** » Mon Jan 30, 2017 4:56 pm

Wolves, Sixers, Heat all ahead of us in the tank race and all playing in very winnable games tonight. Suns and Mavs also ahead of us but have to upset.

Just saw this on hoopshype:

However, Fournier felt lingering soreness in his foot on Saturday night and Sunday morning, causing him to be scratched from the game against the Raptors. Fournier, who missed five games at the end of December and the beginning of January before returning for five mostly hobbled games, is walking the fine line of wanting to be back as soon as possible and not wanting to return too soon as to re-aggravate the injury. “I definitely don’t want to do the same thing that I did two or three weeks ago and if I’m going to come back, I want to come for good and not just for a week or two,’’ said Fournier, whose foot was wrapped in ice following Saturday’s two-hour practice. “To be honest, it’s not that complicated because I just have to listen to my body. If I’m sore I’ll tell the training staff and we’ll go from there. It’s all about listening to my body.’’ 8 hours ago – via NBA.com

Hmmm sounds like he is going to wait til he is 100%. Fine with me. CJ tank commander Watson will fill the role.

Build around this two stars and next year Magic will fight for top 3 on East.
