Was a nice shot by Paolo after a horrendous shooting night.

It all depends on the Murray/Paolo thing.

If they can get along without issue, you make the trade tomorrow.

If they can't, then you don't.

Oh blah yourself. He’s not a good coach.


Magic fans wouldn't know what a good coach is tbh, they give a free pass to players and FO and blame them every time.

Replace Okeke with Franz and Houstan with Harris, and that will improve the team a lot.

That was fine defense on that last shot.

Plenty of other plays Fultz crapped the bed to use as an example, but that wasn’t one of them.

You do a defense for offense and you don't bring AB in? Especially after watching Fultz get cooked? I was sitting wondering why Fultz was in the game at that moment

You’re a Magic fan, so you wouldn’t know either.

Nah that was a big time shot and was going in regardless. Thats was the least if Fultz faults tonight

The opposition has 10 more turnovers and you have 6 more offensive rebounds you should win that game comfortably. But not this team. Too many dumb mistakes and lack of awareness, attention to detail.

No he's not lol. He gets on them hard.

Also, why do fans have such a boner for coaches that scream at their players and turn red? There's maybe 2-3 of those guys today and it's Thibs and Clifford.

We can just get off this train. I don't want Murray here.

I don't think we have enough to get Murray at this point

I'm not going to beat up on Mosley too bad, even though I don't understand his lineups right now. It's time for Weltman to join the chat. He's been hiding too long without criticism.

Paolo is also killing us with his inefficiency right now. 8-25 ain't cutting it but he's also trying to score over 2 guys every other play while players continue to brick the open looks he gets them when he does pass... frustrating for everyone...

fultz needs to go. im sorry but he is just washed.

the guy doesnt even consider shooting from outside anymore, i mean he literally almost airballed a 6 foot jumper because of the hitch.

i dont have the stats, but i would be willing to bet any time he is on the floor with Paolo, he makes his stats worse. It is literally 4 vs 5 on offense, with teams zoning up and sagging when he is in.
