In all fairness, didn't WAS also just played 8 guys seeing as we played only that many as well? lol

Rj is out sick but he literally just played a minute yesterday? Poor kid i wish we got to see more of him this year he was finally shooting decent from the 3 and his drives were under control.

I like the Washington big three of Porzingis, Beal, and Kuzma a lot. I like our depth more than their depth though. We'll see how it goes but I'd love a win tonight. This team is directly above us in the rankings and if we are serious about a play-in push this is a game we need to win.

I remember Porzingod just swatting Paolo and Franz drives in the beginning of the game and it really set a tone. We were timid every time we saw him lurking in the game. I hope they don't get scared this game.

I have no expectations for this one. Just play.

That was their normal rotation, besides Beal being out. They had healthy bodies but the coach only plays about 8 guys. I can’t even imagine how the others feel with no playing time.

I want us to blow them out just because I don't like Kuzma.

Washington needs wins to kick Chicago out of the play-in. Just saying

Hear hear!

The only thing I want in this game besides a win, is for us to protect the paint and rebound. Last game I feel like Washington was just playing us. It was ridiculous how easy the game was for them against us because we had no inside presence.

Let's Go Magic!

Paolo’s role in the offense continues to shrink

The Magic have got to run more plays for Paolo.

Dont think this jsgonna go well for us. This is a game they shouldn't be switching everything. They kill every time they we switch.

They don't even look for him.

Interesting start... They play us differently than most teams

Paolo is kinda..... not visible? timid? forgettable?

Has he even taken a shot?

Just came to post that it’s odd they aren’t making an effort to look for Paolo after a quiet night.
