Let's go Magic!

[Knightro]

The starting lineup has NOT been announced yet for tonight. All we know is that Harris and Carter will play.

[Kent]

Wearing white at home ♥️

Second trap game in a row. We're also re-integrating players into a lineup that has really jelled lately. It might take some time to sort things out. (Did Paolo and WCJ ever work out their spacing issues before they got injured?)

[eyriq]

The starting lineup has NOT been announced yet for tonight. All we know is that Harris and Carter will play.

I was wondering. I think we should change up the starting lineup. At least move Moe to the bench. We'll see what coach decides. Moving both Moe and Bol to the bench would be a bit extreme and potentially disruptive.

[penny_nz]

Looking forward to see how coach brings Harris and WCJ into the fold while keeping the chemistry and rhythm intact, SHOULD be a good game to do it in. Go Magic!

[RookieStar]

Im all for incorporating Harris and WCJ back to the team. Just make sure they don't hurt us too much or causes us a loss doing so.

Second trap game in a row.)

That the Magic is playing to extend their home winning streak to five game, this is truly a trap.

That said, if the Magic is learning, then this game is a critical test. This is the kind of game a mediocre team wins.



JUST WIN!

[drsd]

One thing I think we missed: Orlando has caught the Wizards, and a win here coupled to a Washington loss, Orlando will move up to the 6th worst team.

Go MAGIC!


p.s. a win here and a Bulls loss, Orlando will be tied with Chicago in the W column.

[3ddman23]

Must win game. No excuses. If they want to start taking that turn and be taken seriously, this is a must win game. The spurs are not good. Come out at home and beat a team you should beat. Plain and simple.

And please for the love of God don't let McDermott kill us.

Go magic

Wendell coming off the bench for tonight at least.

I'm interested to see how many minutes Bamba gets now. He's been pretty good lately but he's already surplus to requirements and we still have JI to come back.

Sticking it out, eh? Not a bad idea since the team has been winning. Gives us time to reintegrate WCJ and Harris. I won't be surprised if WCJ is third in minutes tonight when all is said and done.

[eyriq]

Magic win by 20

[JBSouthpaw]

I like WCJ and Harris of the bench to start. Keep the continuity for the starters.
So nice to have the depth back!

[tooler]

Yuck I forgot about that part. Watch out for the twin towers lineup. We should’ve traded him before this game.

[SOUL]

We're getting some guys back but this is the first time Spurs are full strength all year.

So weird how teams always have guys come back against us lol
