I am over this season with these 3s.

The Magic's luck has unfortunately normalized in a big way since the all-star break.

They've conceded a lot of open threes all year, but the last 6 weeks or so teams have been making them at a much higher rate.

Kevon Harris is a great chaos agent.

Paolo needs to sleep in the gym this offseason practicing shooting 3s and free throws.

Loving new Cole. He is off on his shot tonight but making things happen on defense. Previous Cole would have been a complete negative.

Kevon is the type of SG we need.

The Magic concede the 3rd most wide open 3s per game.

But teams have only made 38.9% of them coming into tonight, which is just 17th in the league.

That percentage keeps going up though...

I actually have no issue playing Kevon the rest of the season. He's a try hard (this is a compliment) and will give good minutes.

Banchero locks in and plays better in games that he feels are bigger. My opinion

I do think we learned something during the win streak with Admiral and Kevon getting big minutes. We need Paolo and Franz to be who we hope they will become and then put dogs and shooters around them. Admiral and Kevon were built in the heart&hustle mold.

I do like that idea for the build around Paulo and Franz. Surround them with dogs

I'm hoping we don't and finish with the 5th worst record. Lillard is going to get shut down soon and we don't have much wiggle room.
