Franz had up and down games this season, he's young! If we had a chance to I would get a disgruntled star for him and Mo, WCJ.


I just vomited in my mouth a little. This would be the beginning of the end. Getting rid of two heart and soul players for someone who doesnt want to be here. :banghead:

I’m calling some clutch 3’s coming from Paolo, Suggs AND Franz. We will come back!

Damn it, we are 3 years into total rebuild, what kind of moves you wanted and for what??? We are not contenders yet regardless.

Oh bull. They’re not even trying. You think it takes 3 years to see where they’re weak? And then the nonsense they pulled in the lottery really screwed the franchise. As did leaving this group of bricklayers intact at the deadline. Stupid **** blind homerism drives me nuts.


The team just drafted their franchise player LAST YEAR. You think they're going to figure it all out in one offseason? Lmao.

The team likes to say they've been building this family for three seasons and continuity is best. Now I think they can say that Paolo delivered while the family failed. Could justify big changes.

This board is crazy, it literally takes one bad game for a player to get traded/released.

I hope so dude, our deficiencies are been shown up in the bright lights of the playoffs. In 4 away games we've scored over 100 ones (probably), by 3 points. That aint winning ****
I still believe in Magic! Welcome to the Franz & Paolo era

Don't complain about Fultz or Cole, Franz is 1-12 this game and shot the ball like **** the whole series.

This trade wasn't some conspiracy - it was just a GM wanting AD bad enough where in most people's eyes he overpaid by a long shot to get him.

Franz needs to get stronger, he doesnt have Banchero frame, he needs more time. Creating in late shot clock against Mobley is not easy task for lean 22 year old. His 3 point shot is dissapointing but he just changed his mechanics a little, this needs time.
My money is on Banchero going number 1 !

Suggs… so disappointing. So careless in the clutch.

I hate that Franz is going down like this. He’s better than this.

Markelle Fultz should have played more in the first half when we had the lead up to 18! Keep attacking the rim and get keys guys in foul trouble... Coach Mosley dropped the ball

I know everyone points to shooters, but I think Knightro was right - we need 1st option.

To improve our offense we need someone like Young. I dont see Garland and Mitchell totally destroying their defense we can get by with one smaller guard.

Return to Orlando Magic
