I think he struggles due to Dunn more than anything.

Depends what camp you’re in.

We are already 6.5 games ahead of the Bulls. If we’re tanking then this is a must lose game to make up some ground while we still can.

Magic dominating on the interior early. Gordon and Vucevic punishing some mismatches in the post on switches.

True.

I'm in the see where we're at come deadline and then decide camp.

Is there a good reason why, after the 1st quarter, we stop utilizing Gordon and Vucevic in the post? Do other teams adjust to it better or do we just get lazy and go away from it?

Are those flashing lights supposed to be there? They’re annoying, I can only imagine trying to play with them.

The odds of Orlando catching Chicago seem remarkably slim to me.

When is Bamba going to learn how to stick his arms straight up when someone is driving at him?

It doesn't seem that difficult to learn....

About as good of a quarter as you can get on the road. Pretty much everyone contributed in those 12 minutes.

Would be nice to have a game where we just beat up on a bad team and don’t let up. I hope this is that game for us.

I can't believe we are doubling Lopez....

Bamba could be blocking 4 shots per game and altering if he actually tried but he plays like he is 6'7.
