With JI having a few extra days off, I'm hoping he can log some extra minutes and give Lauri fits.

Vegas thinks we have a decent chance in this one, so I'll trust their judgement.

Let's go Magic!

I have a bad feeling about this game. Utah is solid and the Magic are lacking confidence. They've been on the road awhile too. Hoping for a bounce-back game, but my prediction will be a loss. Hoping to see them win though, obviously.

Who here remembers that JI always make Collins have his worst game ever?

Lineup wise, they match us size for size having 6'9 , 7'0 and 7'0 frontcourt

Kessler has been mostly ineffective so far this season… which means he’ll get 6+ blocks tonight and dominate the boards. Bank on it.

I get the idea, Cole is a scoring guard while Fultz is a slasher. It just is terrible on defense.

It’s terrible on offense too. Both players need the ball to be effective but Cole IS the offense when he’s in. What is Fultz supposed to do? Be a spot up shooter? :lol: :cry: :nonono:

Let's have a bounce back game. We should be able to beat Utah if we have any hopes of making play in or better.

Fultz out tonight Gary starting instead I feel bad but I kinda like that starting lineup more
Fine print disclaimer for Fultz:
I am high on Markelle Fultz. Yes I understand he is not perfect and needs to shoot more and better and turn the ball over less. I would really like to see him play one more year… and I did and he sucks time to move on.

I am intrigued to see Suggs run the point

Suggs / Harris backcourt be interesting to see if it does help spacing, and how Suggs handles the main PG duties
I still believe in Magic! Welcome to the Franz & Paolo era

What happened to Fultz?

Does that mean we get to see Black in significant minutes?
