2024 NBA Playoffs - East 1st Round: #4 Cleveland Cavaliers vs. #5 Orlando Magic (CLE WINS 4-3)

[Jeremy Lin 7]

Not sure if this makes me sexist but I feel the commentators are putting me to sleep. Anyone else find something that's making this game not seem super entertaining or is it just me? Lol

Feels like a regular season game

[UcanUwill]

What happened to Franz's shot? The Cavs aren't guarding him when he doesn't have the ball.

18% from 3 since all star break.

[CalOrl11]

Not sure how we are only down 12, feels like it should be 20. If we could actually make a shot it could make the game more interesting

[iggymcfrack]

This is a hell no from the Magic. They want no part of a Trae. And Trae is not a #1 option lol.

If Atlanta adds 5 first round picks which they don't have, maybe then Magic could at least do a helicopter dick in their face before saying no still.

Banchero is like 21, 6'10 versatile defender, lead his team in all 3 main statistical categories and his team fought for play off hone court all year. Nah, let's trade him legit #1 Trae Young, astonishing proposal, Morey school.

Worst on/off on the team, incredibly inefficient scorer, probably as bad of a defender as Trae without the scoring and passing. I’m not convinced he’ll ever be a top 30 player.

Magic guards finished the half shooting 1-17. Ridiculous.

[ORL_on_FIRE]

Slowly turning into a just dog the **** out of Orlando thread.

The Magic are very uh, adept at drawing fouls. Part of me wonders if we just get out of the way if they'd miss most of them just going for the foul

No, they are terrible, period.

Need exciting commentators, not this dull, listless duo.

Its as bad as you think.

in their defense the game and the home crowd have not been anything to get fired up about.

This was a problem last year with espn. So many of them sound so low energy including JJ Reddick. I didn’t care to listen to him either. He had no enthusiasm when it’s the playoffs.

I just recently discovered the world of JJ podcasts, and I love the guy, but he has that very calm slow voice, I can not picture him hyped up much. If I wouldn't know, I would guess he was rather psychiatrist than a former pro athlete. The guy could voice over those relaxation tracks or smth.

They are just a bad pairing energy-wise. Both are doing their job fine, but they need a high energy 'co-caster' to keep things exciting.

Krispy Kreme is too good. The glazed donut just melts in your hand and mouth. So warm

Worst on/off on the team

Tatum also has a bad on/off. Wonder if that has to do with a great bench...

incredibly inefficient scorer

True, but he's literally 21.

probably as bad of a defender as Trae without the scoring and passing

This is just factually incorrect. If you're using on/off numbers as advanced metrics, this should be verifiable.

[JujitsuFlip]

Both teams need to take better care of the ball and foul less.

The Cavs starting 5 having a really good game but the bench hasn't hit a FG yet.

What happened to Franz's shot? The Cavs aren't guarding him when he doesn't have the ball.

Hes shooting 28% this season. No clue how he went so backwards on his 3 point shot.

He might be one of those guys who plateaus in his second year.....good complimentary player for his career and that is something.

41 in the half, back to 00' nice..

The thing is that he is only 21 and has massive upside I would give him time.

[ORL_on_FIRE]

Everyone keeps hyping up Isaac as some generational defender but I haven't seen anything special from him this game.

Prolly why you shouldn't base everything off one game. One half of basketball at that.

I just wouldn't make that comment when I like the rest of his game lol

[Tor_Raps]

What a jokic commercial... man can do no wrong lol.

[Dubnation]

Love the Jokic commercial

[Chuck Everett]

Jokic/minions commercial made me laugh. Good job.
