They’re much deeper and the coaching is light years ahead.

Also Mobley continues to improve while Franz has yet to become an All Star.

Magic have also fallen apart. The FO is absolutely terrible:

According to Brian Windhorst the Magic's FO do not reach out to teams at all in an attempt to make trades:

If this is true, that is straight malpractice. Unbelievable.

It hurts my soul. We had so many expirings and tons of picks to trade and instead, they did nothing.

Ah, human meat slab Jericho Sims. Forgot the Bucks picked him up.

Zion is really slow from standstill to running back.

Sochan isn't a cheetah and **** left him in the dust.

Wow.

Also looks like Windy is losing weight gradually. Good for him.

Every time I open up the box score I can't believe how bad Ja is playing. Is he just having a tough season or is this the new him unless he magically develops a jumper?

Just off to a cold start, currently leading the team in +/- despite starting 0/7. He's taken a bit of a backseat for the good of the team, doing what it take to win

Bucks Rockets game is intense, both teams full of pep, must've had their grande latte enemas

New Luka car vid is pretty spectacular.

He's taken the most shots on the team tonight if you add the ft attempts, wouldn't exactly call it taking a backseat. Overall, I don't have a problem with him being the 2nd option but he averaging career high TOs while playing the least minutes he has ever played and his efficiency hasn't gotten any better either.

Looked like a stunt double

Credit to the Celtics for winning games, but watching them launch 50+ three point shots, isn't exactly a fun game to watch.

This Raptors color man really loves Tatum

"Full tank. No mercy" while "All my exes live in Texas" plays in the background on the eve of the teams facing each other is a **** LETHAL ad.

This Cavs/Magic game is a perfect example of why national games need flex scheduling. Send two teams out before a game. One is brutal, switch to the other, or have the ability to change it up before broadcast.

Yikes

19 points on 18 shots. I don't get why Jack was slobbering all over him tonight.

I don't get what raptors are doing. Collecting the largest group of overpaid mid wings and see what happens? What is the end goal here?

Who wins?
