GT: Hornets @ Magic Fri Nov 28 7PM EST 

Post#1 » by fatlever » Thu Oct 27, 2022 8:43 pm

It's kind of messed up that we start our season with four of our first five games on the road. What kind of nonsense is that? It's not like the Bob Johnson circus is in town.

Lamelo is out, both Cody and Terry are once again doubtful.

Only the Orlando Magic probably have a worse injury start than us this year. We may actually get to see Bol Bol start at point guard lol.

Bol, Franz, Paolo, Bamba, Wendell
You know they want to...

Will be at this one in person with a buncha Magic fans. They're all a bit ga-ga about Bol Bol at this point.

Typical trap game.

When is the last time Jonathan Isaac played in a game? Lol I swear hit seems like he's been hurt for 5 years.

He has played 3 games since the end of 2019.
Last game was during the bubble in Aug 2020.

I never really considered RJ Hampton to be a point guard, i guess he will do in a pinch

Revenge game for Clifford. C'mon guys, do it for the BRD.

Looks like a winnable game on paper. DSJ and Maledon need to hound their guards all night and create some easy buckets for us.

FWIW, Magic rank 26th in the league in true shooting percentage and 28th in offensive rating.

Orlando is starting Franz Wagner at the point, Paolo at SF, Bol Bol at PF, and Carter Jr. at C

Terrance Ross and four PF/C's. Interesting

Dennis Smith Jr. looks like a floor leader.

Maledon doesn't seem to have the same confidence as he's shown...

Orlando's just leaving Oubre open knowing he's gonna keep shooting and keep missing

Team didn't show up for this one

We scored 30 a quarter in the first 4 games and now have 30 at halftime. #1 offense rating plummeting down every minute
