This is going to be a grind. Hoping for a Paolo bounce back game.

This is going to be a glorious train wreck and God willing, I’m going to watch every minute of it.

I don’t think the career high is coming from our team.

I bet at least one Magic player sets their season high in points tonight.

Somebody's got to score!

Banchero I guess is the defensive Center in this game.

I'm not confident of any career highs on our side, but my three candidates would be Houstan, Harris, or Bol. In that order.

I don't necessarily think this is an automatic loss either. I don't favor us, but I don't see why we can't "upset" the Wizards. They're not very good. But Kyle " I would rather lose in LA than win in Orlando" Kuzma is a Magic Killer, and I loathe watching him play against us.

I'd like to win one of the next two

If Fultz has his jumper falling, this is his night for a career night, no need to be unselfish today for once.

I also expect a big game from Paolo as I am assuming he is going to have main responsibility in setting picks for Fultz today, so he should be getting all those easy buckets that usually go to Moe.

I remember many years ago after the fight at the Palace between The Pistons and Pacers, The Magic played The Pacers that next game.

The Placers only had 6-7 players that were able to play. Everyone thought it would be a blowout but The Pacers stayed in the game against all odds.

Don't count out The Magic tonight!

Lolz at those players...

If i were the coach i would stagger... probably put Ross at the bench and Kevon as thr starter. Have Houstan play the backup PF and Admiral as the C.

Fultz has owned DC. Let’s see if he can make things happen with this rag tag bunch

The Magic need the benchers to step up majorly tonight.

Let's Go Magic!

Watching Porzingis grab that rebound for a put back, that is going to be easy for Wizards.
