Good example of the confidence I have in the team now, when we went down at halftime and I stopped watching, I felt like there was a good chance we would win the game still

This is different than our previous early good starts in previous years, this is for real and it feels amazing.

We've gone through so much the past 10 years, I'm happy for all of us. This is so rewarding

IF and its a big IF.. we can beat or even just battle it out with BOS then maybe a lot more teams will sit up and notice.

Is it a mental thing? Dude was hitting 3s despite in your face defense. Yet in garbage time he cant hit it at all.

Final thoughts before I hit the sack. It legit looked like Denver had more energy than us. They were getting to lose balls faster and just obviously had an advantage in the energy department. AND WE STILL WON

Bucks, Heat, 76ers, us. Well... nice company to be with.

Strange... in the DEN forum they complain that it was us diving for loose balls despite us being the ones playing a b2b.

How did that meme go: "One team is not like the others...."

Man how about Goga and Jalen making those clutch free throws? Unfazed.

Also why was AG inbounding on that last pass? We know better….

feels good, great W. nice to see the crowd in the arena finally bring the same energy at the end that a lot of us bring to our living rooms.

also I've been waiting so long to have an aussie to cheer for on the team and I'm glad Joe is playing great right now.

Does anyone what that was in the 4th Quarter when it looked like one of DEN's assistant coaches just got to pow-wow in a meeting with the refs for 5 minutes? That was when Jokic trolled into Mosely's team huddle too.

Box score thoughts:

The Magic won the FG% battle (how?!?!?), and won the game !

Some mind boggling stats:
Denver took 12 more FGs
Denver made 5 more 3-balls
Denver has less TOs
Denver had more rebounds
Denver had many more offensive rebounds.
And yet the Magic won. Why?

Free Throws. The Magic DOMINATED made FTs this game. Orlando was fantastic at making their bevy of attempts. The 26-30 FT line is a thing of beauty!

Oh: and the Magic was 65% with their 2-ball. That didn't "hurt".
