What about Raps vs Hawks? Just in case...
I'm not worried about them. I think we're 6 games up on Atlanta, and we have an 8 game home stand coming up soon. It might be our longest home stand ever.

I mean... in case at the end we end up 7th or 8th, meaning we face the 9th or 10th. One or both of them might be it. Who do we want to fall out or face?

Yeah so far Pelicans and Cavs are failing us. Sheeeesh.

Pelicans are huge compared to MIA and they should on paper steamroll them.

Cavs cant put away PHI?

They're both on B2B while the others are fresh.

Actually sorry, I think only Heat are fresh. PHI is frisky team for some reason.

Yeah.. both teams without their stars but somehow PHI is easily taking care of the Cavs.

Well... NOP tied it after being down 15

AB may help the Magic have one of the biggest jumps in team record for a rookie. Last season, we lost a bunch of games when all the guards were injured. This season, we went on a 9 game win streak.

Fultz will probably be ready tomorrow night against Atlanta. He's already come back from injury twice against Atlanta this season.

We had a 15-game jump in Shaq and Dwight's rookie seasons. We had a 12-game jump in Paolo's rookie season. We'll have to finish the season 19-7 for AB to break the record.
