Not sure if they qualify as 'mid-range shots' but it's nice to see Franz taking those runners a bit further out when the defense collapses on him.

Franz is terrified to shoot 3s.

The hesitation is gross

Paolo playing from the post again... not sure why we ever go away from it

If we open this thing up you Jett-Huggers might see your boy tonight

Nik “do not harm” Vucevic having one of those games where I have to wonder if he still thinks he’s playing for us…

When we don't shoot 3s lead grows

He gets doubled there a lot and he's making quicker decisions. It's not exactly going away from it, teams take it away.

The Ingles complaints are the dumbest complaints we’ve had this season. The guy has the 2nd highest +/- and netrtg after Isaac. He’s pretty central to our success.

He plays a lot with Isaac.

He's been fine some games, pretty bad in others.

Great energy tonight, good bounce back

Derozan probably isn't a good idea for us in free agency because he passes on open 3s.

I would love to see the stats on 2nd quarter buzzer beating baskets by the other team going into half. It feels like it happens every game.

first in 3pt%, first in assists per 36, first in assist to tos ratio.

he has been a mixed bag, but offensively for us a mixed bag is better than almost anything we have.

I mean that's fine, but he shoots two threes a game.

He's a role player so I ain't gonna go at him too hard - he was great earlier in the season, but this whole like "we can rip on everybody but pointing out Ingles defense and bad turnovers and taunting techs is over the line" is ??? - watch him on defense and he's giving space to everybody and not running back after turnovers.

The biggest plus for him is that he activates Moe Wagner right now. I want him to shoot more though.

Since the Magic are winning I assume we will now talk about the 2nd seed instead of the play ins, right?
