Id appreciate more than 2 points from WCJ… wonder if he’s pouting a little for coming off of the bench.

Our fans have not been good enough this month.
Going to take a lot of will to take the game tonight.

Agreed. The home crowds have been lame. I blame sales and marketing though, we've priced out local fans.

KCP is good to go, right? We'd have won if he could've played second half vs Bucks. Hopefully P5 will play a bit more tonight as well.

Hope so. He was on the bench 2nd half so doesn’t seem very serious.

You just hinted at an underlying issue not many people take notice of and might be part of the bigger issue. Basketball in the Orlando market will never fail regardless of the product ownership and management put on the floor. With the success of the NBA and other teams super stars there will always be someone exciting to watch, add the fact Orlando is a MAJOR tourist destination for theme, parks, and cruises along with a major International Airport you’ll always have out of town visitors with spare time on their hand to do stuff and see stuff. If you only have to fill your stadium halfway with local fans you don’t necessarily listen to local fans competing about prices and honestly even the success or failure of your team. It’s a perfect recipe for owners to make money and not worry about failure because you never can fail.

Not expecting Paolo to have a good game while he’s trying to get his legs back. We need others to step up offensively.

It's the same phenomena happening around the NBA and other sports.

Sporting events are becoming outings only more well off folks can enjoy regularly. Thus a good amount of the most die hard fans cant go anymore, and a good amount of fans at the game now arent close to as passionate in their fandom of the team.

Whenever I go to bball games the past 4-5 years it catches me off guard how weak the fans are, even at intense moments in the game.

It sucks, knowing that the experience at a game is alot better when 1. you can afford to go to more games 2. there are other passionate fans at the game and yall can feed off of each others energy

This stretch is a pretty rough stretch of games to have Paolo come back for.

Potentially the Minny game against Gobert and guarding bully ball Randle. Bucks against Lopez & Giannis. Then the 76ers against Embiid.
