“If you're getting stops and you're making threes and the other team's not scoring, that's when you're going to see a huge point difference there,” coach Billy Donovan said.

Hope no more Magic players out tomorrow. We can't win against bad teams playing with their G league players.

So does Abrines suit up for this game or are they going to just mothball him until he gets traded?
If Nader is still out, then either Schroder has to go supernova or Russell has to play a great floor game since the bench will struggle to have production just like the Boston game.

From this point on, there should really be no letdowns anymore. Team really has to make a push to try to get that 2nd seed. I don't want to face the Nuggets in the second round without the homecourt advantage.

I'm fine with finishing 3rd. We are closer to finish 4th or 5th considering Blazers/Rockets are playing well and our schedule is brutal

We're finishing 2nd. Schroder is about the beat the snot out of Orlando.

Hope the players mindset isn't like mine thinking about the trade deadline and almost forgot that we have a game tonight :)

The only thing more frustrating than russ’ poor shooting is him constantly screaming “and oooonnne” after every brick and then getting a technical.

By the way, there have been multiple times that I’ve heard russ yell “short” during a free throw and it actually goes in. He just did it now. He’s just lost on any feel for his shot.

It's one game suspension after each tech when he reaches 16 right?

Our defense has sucked long enough that it’s time to be concerned. These guys are just lazy the last few weeks.

Abrines relapsed. They should say what he has...don't get the point of hiding this
