Let’s trade Suggs. It’s like we are playing 4 on 5 out there.

Did Butler even get a shot attempt in OT? I'd be pissed too.

But I'm not Jimmy Butler, I am a Magic fan, so I am pretty pleased by this win
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

I wouldn’t have expected Butler to get to so upset about a loss to us. Dude was salty the young bucks beat him.

I'm legit wondering if he's earned back his draft prospect capital. I mean, if he's stroking the three and attacking the paint, with all NBA defense he's back to being a rising star, right?

It's funny, I remember when he had one game where he literally won us a game with defense. I said it that night, he was the first player I can remember to do that on a Magic team in god knows how many years I have been watching.

And then he came out and did it again today. His defense was just insane. Dude was a problem out there.

Play in is unlikely, but if we can lock in 2 top 10 picks this year, the future is bright. i think we have a playoff core already. Next season is going to be awesome without the 7-21 start

This year is nothing like last. We have barely been blown out and been in most games. Like Draymond green said, were a young team learning to win. Not devoid of talent.

Suggs has played well any time he has been able to stay on the court consistently. That just hasn't happened much in his career so far, but hopefully he can continue to stay healthy.

Here's a stat...

4 steals, 3 blocks and 4 three pointers made has only been done once in Orlando Magic history before Suggs did it tonight.

Nick Anderson is the only other Magician to do it. Way back in 1993.

I actually hate the foul strategy at end of games. I want to see buzzer beaters and stuff. We should definitely take advantage of it while its a thing but I think we truly kind of want to keep a 5th position right now. But there should be some rule with it in the offseason imo

Yes, we want the 5th spot
