What would make YOU happy? 

Post#1 » by mattdelray1220 » Fri Mar 22, 2024 8:36 pm

Lifelong Magic fan. Obviously last decade has been rough. This season has been so much fun. Wow. It seems like the fanbase is split on the potential of the current team this year. Most discussions tend to be about the future. I get it. It is bright. But would would make you happy this year? We know we arent winning the ship. But could we surprise a team? Surprise 2 teams? Every game I am anxiously waiting for them to crumble and they just don't! Coach says this is a special group and I believe him.

I would be happy with a series win. After that just a hard fought series in the 2nd round. I truly believe they are hitting their stride and can potentially make the ECF. Super excited for the next few weeks to close out the season.

Man, I am happy they got this far. They were expected to be a borderline play in team. So any success in the playoffs is just icing on the cake. With that being said I would like our chances against a team like NY.

We somehow traded Coles backup spot for Keyonte..


Seriously though, im already happy because we have exceeded all expectations. Post RS is just icing on the cake already.

Getting to game 6 or 7 of a first round series would be a giant accomplishment. Now if they actually win a series that’s would be insane.

I would be happy if you could fix Fultz’s broken wings.

don't expect to win a series but winning a couple of games would be pretty exciting considering my expectations for the team this season at the beginning

Making playoffs and being competetive in the first round. Seeing Franz, Paolo and Jalen wanting more after they are eliminated in whatever round. I want to see them.not satisfied.

Being the 4th or even 3rd seed would be amazing...even better would be expected to beat any other team in the playoffs - and, basically, be taken as a serious playoff team - in line with our seeding. I don't think we're there.

Also, utilizing the tremendous situation our FO created for improvement this summer...rather than just pay up to the minimum payroll and hope for miracles.

I'd like the team to make the playoffs completely healthy and then not embarrass themselves.
