Not at all, I watched the whole 4th quarter, man.

Now it's 8:35pm here in Brazil, I'm gonna prepare me some "baurus".

French bread, mozzarella, ham, sliced tomatoes, all grilled.

Magic just tired from that winning streak, i guess? Mired so much in mediocrity they can't handle a 10 game win streak?

Back2back and a haed fought wiz game less than 24hrs ago? Lacking 2 starters in Fultz and WCJ plus a vital bench piece in JI? Not to mention Suggs getting banged up?

Yup a lot of us expected this loss.

For Orlando, Nets is a prime Warriors

Anybody else is Wizards

Cole's ugly selfish ass right on cue looked Franz off on that fast break just to chuck a pullup from the elbow to shoot it short.

This guy gets under my skin when he's the primary decision maker. Put Paolo or Black or Suggs back in.

In general, isolation late in a game against Kawhi is not really a high success play, unless you're some player that has some specific physical advantage over him you can use.


Like speed? Prime Curry was crossing up Prime Leonard when Leonard had way better defensive instincts and focus

Leonard was holding on his hip for dear life that play. Also the whole court was small, no way Curry couldn't have done his signature tear drop layups on post-prime WESTBROOK doing rim protection duties.

That was a good take by Jalen Duren

Edit: and good to see Bogdanovic is back for DET
