Its gonna be tough. If we can win in Port it would be a real solid road trip.

Yeah honestly If we can go .500 on this road trip it would be very successful in my opinion.


As far as I'm concerned they're gonna go 4-0 on the road trip until they lose.

I just don't like chalking up games as losses until they happen :lol:

Denver will be interesting.

Vuc V Jokic
AG V Millsap
Fournier V Chandler
Ross V Ross
Payton V Murray

Simmons V Barton

They match up similarly to us. Any one of them or us could be the hot hand tomorrow night.

All road wins are great wins.

Orlando won this by stifling defense of the Phoenix 3-ball. Friggen incredible to get a team shoot 24 three-balls when most are bricks!
(5-24 at 20.8%).

Let's think about Orlando's three-ball as an outcome: Orlando shot for 3 basically at the same clip at Phoenix' overall shooting percentage.

Yet another game won by taking control of the FG% battle!

GO MAGIC !

Nothing like three coaches and four different positions and like 30 minutes a season to really get the most out of a young player.

The excuses are strong. The coaches aren’t out there missing the shots for him or dribbling off their feet every play.

I wanted him to succeed so bad but he sucks. Only way I see him sticking it out is in a spot up shooter off the bench type of role for a team.

It's kind of insane to me he's not getting more looks at this point. Don't want to force it, but would love to see him get a few more plays run for him.

To be fair, he had a decent rookie year.

tell you what, Chad Forcier deserves a gigantic raise. he has helped AG build some very good muscle memory and work on that shot. I would be happy with him shooting 38% for the year, ecstatic at 40%. let alone the near 60% he is still at for the year.

He needs to be our Danny Green. A defined role where once he gets it, if open he shoots. None of this horrible dribbling. Mario dribbles way too high.

I'm still fired up by Isaac's second half last night. That guy played so well and stayed within himself. He cooled off Jackson and then swatted him at the rim. It was just a beautiful thing. I can't wait until his offense develops.I think that will click in to full gear in 1-2 more seasons. By his 3rd year, he could be a dominant 2 way force in this league

They took away one of his baskets for basket interference which was probably the wrong call.

I was at the game last night sitting 4 rows behind the magic bench.

Because of all the talk of AG vs Evan around here I kept a close eye on them and I saw......... Absolutely nothing.

That "fued" is non existent. They were joking together on the bench for like the whole 4th quarter.

yeah, i think this whole "fued" things is fans reading to much into teammates holding each other accountable.
