This one is hard pass for me, it starts at almost 5 am in Europe.
Even if it starts earlier it's probably better to pass. Back to back against defending champions sounds brutal.

no Curry or Draymond Green? We can take this game. Stick Isaac on Durant, AG on Klay, and let Vucevic do his thing

For the Magic to win, I reckon Simmons, Ross and Fournier to dedicate their motivation to wing defense instead of offense.

Golden State has been pretty middling since Curry went down. Just 4-5 in the 9 games he's missed.

Obviously it's certainly possible that they could blow the doors off the Magic tonight, but I think the Magic have a good chance to keep it very competitive.

Iwundu officially out of the rotation. Simmons into the starting lineup.

Yuck. Iwundu is actually a better shooter than Simmons. Just let that sink in for a minute.

I’ll be at the game tonight rooting for our boys, keep an eye out for me courtside right next to the Magic bench in an annoying lime green hoodie.

I'll eat crow if this starting lineup works out, but I hate it at first glance.

Courtside at a Warriors game? I shudder to think how much that set you back. I'm absolutely jealous though.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

It’s like everyone was saying no way Simmons can play hero ball with the starters

Simmons on Klay and AG/Isaac taking turns on Durant is my guess.

His 3rd string demotion magically healed his wrist and now he's gonna do better, he swears.

I would love to get this one, especially with the injuries the Warriors have. Stealing one here would be great for the road trip since the Blazers always have our number and that very well could be a loss. So a win here and in Phoenix would allow the Magic to have a winning record on the road trip and overall.

Is this the quickest rise from 3rd string to starter or a trade showcase?
