Taking Orlando in this one. Milwaukee is on a back-to-back and we are notorious giant killers

Is Isaac playing? That's going to be my joke on whether or not we should deploy "tanking memes".

FYI there is no reason tanking should be tied to Isaac playing, the absurdity of that statement alone shouldn't have to be followed up with any decorum of seriousness.

In other words, if he sits, I sarcastically welcome all the tank memes.

Looking for a Cole Anthony scoring bounce back game. We will need his bench scoring.

For Orlando to win, either the Magic bench dominates the Bucks bench (possible), or M-Wagner goes full OG and body slams Antetokounmpo.

It's why I like Moe Wagner. He isn't afraid to give the opponent the ol razzle dazzle.

Isaac has a hamstring pull, which is very common for players coming back from injury.

Gary Harris was out with a knee injury at the beginning of the season. He came back and injured his hamstring. Then he missed 11 more games.

Silver lining of Isaac being out is that we might see a 9 man rotation.

Why didn't Paolo hustle for that rebound and then just let him shoot a three?

You can't win with that effort.

I mean, I don't even understand what he was thinking. Just pathetic. I've seen him do that before too
