Whatever reason, hope we see that lineup some posters were clamoring for.

I feel like i usually take it for granted but thank you for the game thread.

Last game before the break, hopefully Jalen will abuse Young or at least force him to try and play big down low.

More likely scenario is Jalen gets 3 fouls playing great, aggressive defense and then gets switched off of Trae when he returns.

They may not have told David Steele because I think he just said Cole was out.

Nice pass from Cole to Franz

Cole has had a great start so far

This Hawks lineup is a bad matchup for Orlando's current starting lineup.

Neither Carter nor Bamba are comfortable chasing a true stretch 4 like Gallinari beyond the 3PT line.

The defense is so bad when Suggs is out

I really despise the long 3.

I’m not so sure about Harris and Cole as the guards together. That combo really needs to score or we go down by a lot.

Cole just hangs out under the basket.

If the Hawks make 7 threes every quarter, I don't think the Magic are gonna take this one

Ball movement is not necessarily terrible but it doesn't help that we can't shot worth a Damm since 2010

Can we get the Suggs-Harris-Wagner-Okeke-Carter lineup or what?

Different night, same story.

No one is defending too well tonight for the Magic. Suggs has been way too aggressive on Young and has gotten fooled badly on fakes like 3-4 times already.
