Fultz is our starting garbage time man.

Suggs with 5 assists and 1 TO? Didn't seem like it but nice.

[ChosenSavior]

Good stuff from Markelle

playing very well tonight minus the pass on the open 3 to force WCJ into a bad 3

I've given up on him in terms of shooting cause it's mentally exhausting. He is hustling out there though.

Fultz heard we weren't happy with his play so he's balling tonight lol

Markelle looks better tonight, tics under control in his interview at halftime. Nice performance so far scoring around the rim and hustling on offensive rebounds. He just needs to add some hard screens and rim runs, next to maybe some shot blocking on defensive end and we are set at 5.

This is very cool. Also got Suggs super hyped

I liked the team starting AB and Goga better. This team isn't as good.

We had to change that lineup because it was starting to suck.

Actually, our starting lineups in general have been just average at best. This current starting lineup I think has okay numbers.

Our real drop off has been the bench. Cole, Ingles and Moe were all top 20 in bench player production during our streak, and near unplayable lately.

Fultz is playing fine by his standards, but that final possession is truly a microcosm of why it is just never going to work with him.

Any other NBA gets that pass and is taking that wide open 3PT from the corner. It's one of the easiest and most common shots in all of basketball at this point.

Fultz never even considers it and instead dribbles into a much tougher contested double clutch middy that misses and the Suns get a runout the other way off it.

You can only get away basically playing a vulture at point guard for so long. Can you imagine how bad this offense would look in a playoff series where the other team is A. giving max effort defensively and B. actually has a locked in game plan defensively rather than just winging it in the midst of a long late January road trip?

Spoiler: it will be a disaster

I miss Goga

Me too. I like WCJ too but the FO needs to figure it out.

[ChosenSavior]

I've really been liking how Isaac has been looking these past few games. We're so much better defensively with him on the floor.

[eyriq]

JI with 12 mins already. Is it happening?

[Rainwater]

Considering they are only down 5 against the suns and the 3 point shooting and bench has been bad, the Magic should be happy.

[basketballRob]

I miss Goga

Me too. I like WCJ too but the FO needs to figure it out.

AB and Goga take fewer shots and have low usage, but Franz and Paolo started to look like stars. Now we have too many mouths to feed, and it doesn't look good.

Fultz looks good until you realize he's getting cooked on defense and suffocating the rest of our offense.

Isaac's last and only season he actually was on the floor in more than 34 games was 2018/19.
