Franz needs to skip the Olympics this year but he won't. He needs rest and to work on his shooting.

This series was over in game 5 unfortunately. They had the chance to take it and couldn’t.

It’s whatever. At least this front office will be forced to actually do something for once now.

If our defense keeps letting Mitchell get help from Garland and Mobley we lose.

If our offense can’t get help from Franz and Suggs we lose.

They live for big moments. Can’t get any bigger than this right now. Let’s see some Magic!

You’d think we were due for some 3s and could get this back to 5 before the 3 minute mark but idk

He is.

He just isn’t mentally built to be an option.

Been saying since last year.

Its like the Sixers with Iguodala.

Yeah Paolo also played poorly, but we don't have any other options or scheme to fall back on when he goes cold. It's unfortunate.

Outside of Paulo a no show from this team. Suggs played high level defence, the rest have been missing

I was never comfy with the lead. At home we knew the run was coming.

Welt slept through draft night and the trade deadline. Just think what this team could’ve been with a GM that acknowledged this backcourt is simply not good enough to compete.

No reliable outside shooting, continued 3pt shooting even when it's not going in, and a SG that averages around 5 ppg in the playoffs. All needs to be fixed.

Franz doesn't even want the ball anymore
I still believe in Magic! Welcome to the Franz & Paolo era

Return to Orlando Magic
