Team needs to take its frustrations out tonight. Calling 20 point win for the good guys.

Paolo needs to score more than 8 points. And he needs to not dribble the ball into the defense several times when the game is on the line.

We should have a chip on our shoulder after getting our a**es handed to us at home and spank the tanking trailblazers on their home court and gain some confidence for this West coast trip. We're getting healthy and it's time to go on a run. Time to get back to winning basketball games

I'll be at the game wearing my Magic gear. Look for the good looking 6'4 black dude if they show anybody in Magic gear in the Great Northwest. My son works for the Blazers but this is the one game I don't miss. Let's go!

Since I'm in the west I'll get to watch the whole game.. hopefully Suggs can go. Dude will eventually calm down and understand he can't help the team if he's always banged up.

Just watch. Gary plays amazing defense and makes 4 of out 7 3pt shots and the narrative here will change.

I was going to call this a night and just see the box score tomorrow but now, I want to see what a pissed off Franz look like. He has to be mad that he didn’t make the all star team.

Go Magic, Go Dwight, Go Vuc, Go Paolo, Go Keegan :)

0 allstars on the Magic means we shouldnt be a playoff team logically. ZZZ taking it away from fan vote is a disaster.

By that logic... the Mavs shouldnt be a PO team as well since Luka and Kyrie didnt get in...

What kind of conclusion is no all-star = no playoffs?

You all let me down last game, so please beat the Blazers tonight... They've won 5-6 of their last games and that's entirely wayyyy to much for a team that should be playing for ping-pong odds.
