He can score but he's one of the worst defensive players in the NBA.

How many bucket getters are good defenders, I would think not manyibraheim718 wrote:ORLMagicGirl15 wrote:Can't watch this game right now, but what does everyone think of Cam Thomas. Is he any good and would we need a shooter like him?

False hope for what? A single win in a playoff exit?
I thought we were playing for playoff glory where moral victories still count and we can figure out if we should grossly overpay for Suggs.

false hope that we still dont have significant roster issues. and it isnt the fans that wont recognize it, its the front office

Eh... Young team... if they're not beating teamms that are better than them or as good next year or the year after that then we have a problem.

1) Franz, Paolo or Suggs get hurt
2) Fultz plays well enough in the playoffs to make the Magic think he is worth resigning
As crazy as number 2 may sound, it is not out of the realm of possibility that our young players come out anxious/flat and Fultz winds up (almost by default) one of the lone bright spots. Pretty much anything besides these two scenarios I can live with as this has been such a fun, wonderful season to be a Magic fan.

That's a .485 TS%, with the team overall shooting .645, and well below his own average.JBSouthpaw wrote:eyriq wrote:Another stinker of a shooting night from Franz. Good lord.
6-14 a stinker??
Not sure I agree. Plus he played Bridges pretty tough, especially in the 1st half.
