All things considered, maybe the best game of Terrence Ross' Magic career.

Easily Ross. 2nd place goes to the Knicks for bricking EVERYTHING

For me Victories come in the form of losses. This sickens me.

The Magic is currently 1 1/2 games outside the play-in games and 2 1/2 games to the #6-seed (to avoid the play-in all together).

GO MAGIC !

This goes to show how god awful the Eastern Conference is when you have a losing record. Yet, this team is still within striking distance to overtake a spot. Albeit it's still early.

Vest: Ross for god-mode play
Cummerbund: Fournier for efficient two-way ball
Mittens: Vučević for rebounding dominance

What good is a 6th seed for us? What is your goal?

I had hoped for positive momentum, and the 4-game streak to start the season provide evidence that Orlando was a playoff-caliber team. But now that 150+ games have been missed (about 5.5 players missed per game as an average), right now I have only one goal: no more injuries. Whether the Magic make a play-in, avoid this by being the #6 or higher or miss the playoffs entirely, right now we fans simply need injured players to improve to pre-injury levels AND no ne injuries to occur. The problem is that neither is likely.

The only goal on anyone's mind should be on figuring out the best way to get an elite talent here. ...and right now, the draft is the best opportunity for us to do so IF we land a top 5 pick. There is a huge drop off after that.

Winning right now is only sweet if you like licking sweat off the Nets balls.
