That's so weird, back-to-back away games against the same team...

[cedric76]

Easy win

Love the ESPN quote on this game:

Orlando travels to Washington for a Southeast Division matchup.

Travel from where? Their hotel rooms? The gym that was rented today to work-out? Where?

Orlando is -2 for this game. It is a "road" game and is the back end of a road-road BtB, but the bookies clearly like Orlando to only have a small line like this.

Beal goes for 30 in his third straight game; Westbrook goes for his third-straight triple-double; and the Magic win taking the wizards to 0-3.

[basketballRob]

Westbrook is out.

This should be a win, but when was the last time we were 3-0?

Wow.. RW is resting? Easy win for the Wiz now that they don't have to deal with their walking turnover "get his" machine.

Seriously though, I think they play better without RW one-man performance.

[RookieStar]

Any of our guys " load managing" as well?

P.S. great time to play Bamba and limit Vuc's PT

[pepe1991]

Am i seein something wrong? Dallas- Clippers, half time 77-27?

what a ****

[JasonBlanchard]

As long as we put up a better performance than the Clippers tonight, I am good

I do want to see Fultz have another good game. Start stringing some stuff together. He has looked legit to start the season

[JasonBlanchard]

Oh, and let Bamba see the court tonight. We don't need a heavy dose of Birch again

[SOUL]

Might be more scared of Neto than Westbrook.

[JasonBlanchard]

Might be more scared of Neto than Westbrook.

I'll be pretty disappointed if our perimeter D is not much improved tonight. Way too many open 3's for him and the big ugly
