OFFICIAL BENCH THE STARTERS THREAD!! 

Post#1 » by NEM » Sat Jan 16, 2010 4:58 am

hop on the band wagon, our starters have got to be benched (w/ the exception of barnes, he plays w/ heart). they play like they dont give a ****. jameer is getting outplayed by j will and has been all year. stan needs to send a message to these guys that they wont win because they won last year. you actually have to try and not bitch to the refs every time something doesnt go your way (see vince and dwight). if we're not making any moves, a line up shake up has got to be done until further notice. this team is too talanted to suck this bad. send a ***king message stan, stop being a bitch dwight, rashard, vince, and jameer

this team is selfish, and it starts with the players that constantly dominate the ball

In the 2nd quarter when they were making the run, I told my mom to start counting the amount of passes we had on offense. 5 straight possessions and I think it was 8 out of 10 or something like that it was either 0 with Jameer jacking up the shot or 1 with Jameer passing to Vince and Vince jacking it up.

We are not gonna make it out of the first round like this. Why even show up to the playoffs if ur gonna play like this.

This team has not heart. No cojones. We suck. We are not a team anymore.

im actually all for this. even though we're struggling to get any kind of chemistry, none of it will help unless the guys are playing with purpose. sit them until they decide they want to play again - and then make them earn their way back into the SL.

we're losing games anyway, may as well lose with guys who play with heart.

I have a better idea, let's just dissolve the Orlando Magic completely. I can play with more intensity than these losers, I'm sure the rest of you can.

i am off the gelling-chemistry band wagon, when you play with no heart, no energy, no hustle, no fire, and no emotion constantly it has nothing to do with chemistry..

i used to play a little point when i played organized ball... i love seeing my teammates score, therefore i pass first and shoot second, although my three pointer can be deadly at times....

ive been sayin this for the longest, trade lewis jameer and carter, we might b able 2 keep carter if we can get a better PG than nelson but whatever we gotta do to get better n really actually b able to contend this than do it, dwight howard redick matt barnes and j.will should be untouchable ryno b.bass n pietrus are the move if we have to guys and the rest i dnt care bring trade them for ppl who want 2 play who will make us better, im sick of freakin lewis nelson and carter playing so pathetic im hating them n i used to like those guys for the magic alot, AAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've got a good vertical, I can rebound, block shots, and hit a short jumper. My defense sucks but I'm willing to try unlike the guys on the current team. So Otis, where do I sign?

I still believe in this team, it sucks right now for us fans. When it comes down to it, it is better that the team face these issues now then later in the season. After we play LA the magic's schedule gets easier. No more west coast trips for one (besides Texas and the midwest). I really feel this team will pull it together the second half of the season. Too much talent for it not too.

We shoot way to many 3's, and that ultimately falls on the coaching staff's offensive strategy. We had plenty of good looks tonight, they just would not fall. Dwight couldn't get going, Vince still cant make a bucket, and we can go on and on and on with other issues.

If somehow we can pull out a win in LA, I think alot us willl change our opinion of this team. We need to keep playin our starters, because our bench may be good but they wont get us out of the first round. Are only chance this season is for the "4 allstars" to start playing close to that level.

I think they can go Magic.
