Wow, Udonis Haarlem played, and started, tonight. Never thought I’d see that again. Also, Orlando Robinson looking good in limited minutes.

If Kawhi is healthy the Clips are going to easily waltz in the West.

It's so weird watching games from 10 or 20 years ago and seeing all the players either having shaved heads or buzzed haircuts. Now almost every player in the league grows their hair out.

I feel like Fultz and Nerlens are having the same hair journey just different timelines.

So the current odds for Orlando to win the Southeast division are 1 to 150 ;)

It's because the Magic have the length and athleticism to bother Tatum and Brown defensively. Take the hint, Daryl!

Celtics were launching and making mad threes earlier in the season. That's hard to sustain and they're predictably coming back to earth.

Worrisome for us on both ends. We're not taking nearly as many, but we're 3rd in percentage (one spot above them), and #1 in percentage against.

Yeah, our differential is +6%, the celtics were second with +4%. Basically we're getting like 1 or 2 free points in comparison to the rest of the league and our net rating is +3.6.

I think our shooting is sustainable, but our opponents aren't hitting open shots against us.

Which why i think our defense is also gonna fall eventually, how much our offense improves in comparison with how our defense gets worse it's the issue.

Fultz was never going to do anything here, with Ben.

Here's what I take from it though: Back to back #1 overall picks. 5 years later, neither one still plays for the team.

No, washed Harden and defensive liability Maxey don't make up for the asset squandering.

Just lends itself even further to the idea that we shouldn't GAF about this team.

Fultz is really that guy who will score in single digits the next 3 games.

Fultz was a victim of that first season run accelerating the timeline in the eyes of the FO.

Team went win now and he had no place here after that. He's still not shooting 3s and the jumper is still jank so I think for him leaving still was the best for him.

Bustelle is just at 53% TS though, one good game doesn't change nothing.
