This feels like the first game in a while where the Magic don’t have to prove they’re for real or whatever.

It’s just a basketball game. Go try to win the game. Especially because it’s the Lakers!

Interesting point. It does feel like the Magic have done enough to ease concerns that they aren't a competitive NBA team. Identity crisis has been put on the back burner.

Thought WCJ might start for Moe this game but he'll still probably be eased in.

Beat LA!!

Does Fultz ever work his way into getting 32 mpg +? I'm angling towards him being part of the core with Franz and Paolo and if that is true than I expect him to start getting 32 mpg or more at some point soon.

Let's get this win!

Watching the pregame show and saw Banchero with his fro and got super excited. No clue why, but I think because that is how we got introduced to him.

Anyway, I am expecting a 60+ game from Bron and a 40 point game from Westbrook. I haven’t been watching the Lakers but these two players just scorch us every time we play them, regardless of team. I feel like this is going to be a hard game but hopefully Orlando step up. Good luck Magic!!!

Im pretty hype for this game, haven't felt this way in awhile.

Win by 1 or win by 50: I don't care.

JUST WIN!

Let’s beat the trash Lakers. Tank goes out the window against my least favorite team.

Very off topic, but I am so happy for Jacque Vaughn and the success he is having with the Nets. I remember when he got the job here and people were saying how bad of a coach he was and that he’ll never get a job once he was fired here. And while I understand he was a first time head coach with us, he was set up to fail because our team was just so bad. I also felt that some of our players were very disrespectful to him. Again, I am so happy for Vaughn. Good luck this season.

Please beat these bums. The one that scares me is Schroder has always seem to be a magic killer. Also the unsung magic killers ill call out one that maybe be a new one for the magic tonight is Austin reeves. Makings of a magic killer. Just get the win and I'll be happy. Go magic

Let's Go Magic!

LAL can't shoot at all. The paint needs to be locked down.

Interesting... i dunno how long it was but in the GB game threads? I was shocked that a lot of posters actually expect us to win. Lol. Wow....

Fultz looks like Hampton lol

Moe with the start over Carter huh?

Moe is a master of the screen
