And at this point there is zero reason Cole should be playing over AB. Cole doesn't even provide offense anymore.

Stop turning it over. Stop giving up offensive rebounds. Stop missing free throws. Just do those three things in the 2nd half and this game is infinitely winnable.

theyre also trying to incorporate Rozier to their team so if anything they should struggle more

it takes time finding the right rhythm for new additions who have a good usage, we've seen it with Harden & Siakam this season

OG was alor easier to incorporate because he's low usage

I disagree, AB navigates screens better than anyone on the team it's one of his strengths.

I think you guys are actually in agreement.

The Magic didn't play the Suggs-Franz-Paolo-Isaac-Carter lineup at all in the first half, did they?

Wcj offers no rim protection man, it's like vuc all over again.... He's fine 1 on 1(except vs jaren Jackson) but he can't protect the rim.... Everybody is driving with no fear

Like atleast we know what Goga and JI are. Their role is clear as day.

possesses a 7'3" wingspan and occasionally shoots some 3's lol

Highlighting trade bait

Paolo is such a lazy defender off the ball. Like that was just such a poor effort on that Martin shot.

Bam and Jimmy are too quiet for my liking.

Paolo just needs to hustle

Everyone seemingly breaks out of a shooting slump against Orlando.

That Paolo fast break 3 was impressive.

Post #337 » by **Knightro** » Wed Feb 7, 2024 2:02 am

Transition defense has just absolutely **** sucked.

Two 3PA for Fultz

The halfcourt defense has been pretty good. The transition defense has just been so bad.
