If we can stay at 4 then unless the lotto just screws us, we have a shot at picking higher.

Huge game. Will be very very tough to lose this. I will be incredibly impressed if we are able to pull this L off. My only hope is tired legs from a back to back on a travel day.

Great effort by Dallas tho.
Why Magic don't start Birch- Biyombo-Vuc- Purvis and Artis with Speights as backup PG and Iwundu at SG-SF and Afflallo at PF-C backup? Good old 8 men rotation , Vuc at PG

Powell, Dirk, and Barnes all not playing. 25-year-old Harrison Barnes sitting out for "rest'. Mavs tank isn't messing around.

Should just tell our team to take a minimum of 50 threes.... would put us in an early hole on offense and destroy any chance of playing solid defense.

Its disgusting but what can Silver do? Give them the win to punish them? So awkward. Best would be losing ping pong balls

Finish 0-5! Pray for a top 3!

DSJ out as well. We got this in the bag!

We will win.

Salah Mejri (knee) questionable
Dwight Powell (knee) out
Harrison Barnes (rest) out
Dirk Nowitzki (ankle) out
Dennis Smith (rest) out
JJ Barea (rest) probable
Noel (suspension) out

Goodness that's insane. Silver can't/won't do anything to investigate though.

hezonja will lead orlando to new win

If they don't get fined for this.... DSJ too? gtfo. What are any of them resting for? Obviously not a playoff run. There is literally 5 games left in the season. This is too obvious. If Chicago got fined then they definitely should.

I don't think any team got fined for tanking. Cuban got fined for talking about tanking (not from actually doing it) and Chicago just got a warning for resting starters (and then went back to doing it the last couple weeks). You also got memphis pulling gasol in 4th quarters. Silver is all talk... he isn't going to do crap at this point of the season.

The Chicago warning should have been a warning for everyone, at this point with 4-5 games left warnings should be off the table and fines should be handed out for pulling stuff this obvious. Having injuries is one thing but resting two guys in their early 20's with 4 games left is too blatant.

Vucevic out tonight the tank is strong

Should have started resting Vuc last night since he always has a good game in NY. But it's good to see management willing to pull some tanking strings. Hopefully AG and Biz implode like they did in January.

Doesn’t more Birch over Vucevic mean a greater chance of winning anyway?

WeHam putting their stamp on the tank.

WeHam (on the line together): Calling Vogel.

Ring.....
Ring.....

Vogel: Hello

Hammond: Nukkoli Voochaitch sit him out for rest tonight.

Vogel: You guys are kidding, right? Where's my offense going to come from?

Hammond: Well you got Frogdan, Fiddleton, Focker, and my #1 unicorn Fiannis.

Weltman: John, John, put the Long Island down, you're Orlando GM now.

Hammond: hiccup, hiccup, sorry well wait what (clears throat), what about Rashad Vaughn? Oooh crap he's gone. Sorry long season haven't been paying much attention to the team.

Weltman: Don't worry I got this, just do as I say Vogel.

Vogel: Ok can you promise me, you'll give me a chance next year, first?

Weltman: Oh no can do Vogel, how can I say this nicely........ You suck

Vogel: I'm a winner coach, check my Indiana days, I don't do tanks.

Weltman: Yada yada yada, your days here are numbered. I already got your replacement.
Hammond sober up now, we've got a meeting in 30 minutes.


Call end.
