That bench rotation we put out there completely disjointed the game.

Also I can't stand Trae Young or Murray.

I completely agree. He doesn’t look done, he just can’t shot or make a free throws and thar killed the magic. Left 4 points off the board. But other than that he was ok. He has a pass that led to a dunk and drove to basket pretty easily. He just can’t shot.
yeah, he’s not done playing in the local rec league.

Guy is done in the nba. Lol

Fultz defenders like yoyojw make it sound like Fultz’ situation is easy to manage lol we’re lucky his tos is acting up again early in the season, not in thenplayoffs. At least now, we still have time to adjust.

Trae was foul baiting early in the game to stop Suggs’ harassment tbh.

Hawks made a comeback when we brought bench in and it left us a bit of shell shocked, going away from what works and back to Paolo iso. Mosley needs to do his job and get the trust back.

Garbage 2nd quarter. We aren't getting anything from our bench and their guards are getting into the teeth of our defense at will.

I mean we can bitch about rotations but he only has guards available. Literally. Queen/Fultz/Cole/Black are all guards, unless we're clamoring for Schofield lol.

It's that the 3 guard lineup gets exposed, and it would require not playing one of Cole, Black or Fultz which just opens another can of worms.

People have swore to me up and down for months and months that it isn't a big deal that the Magic have 3 point guards and 3 centers that all deserve minutes because inevitably there will be injuries.

And while there's certainly an element of truth to that, you're seeing tonight (and in the Miami and Milwaukee losses last month when Goga lost his spot) what happens when all these guys actually are healthy.

There's not enough room and trying to just play mismatched combinations to get everybody minutes just ain't it.

Gonna lose this one by 10 or more. Team has no interest in this game, so I don’t see why I should.

I don’t know about Jamahl sometimes.

Trae's flopping neutered Suggs aggressiveness a bit. NBA officiating needs to be the top priority whenever Silver is replaced.
