I like Banchero, but if he wants to become an elite player he needs to recognize that after being forced to pick up his dribble it isn't the moment for spins and fade aways when guarded by Mobley.

Going to be difficult to hold the lead if Cleveland keeps missing shots at the rate that they are.

The Magic just need 1 guy that can do something off the dribble and shoot.

Whoever their shooting coach is, they probably need to be replaced. Gary Harris wasn't this poor of an outside shooter in Denver.

Don't judge the East because of our offense. We're 22 in offense for a reason this season.
