What happened to that poster on here that used to prop almost every game thread? Hope that person is OK.

Brooklyn's game plan was to take Paolo out of the game. They were quadruple teaming him on some possessions.

It’s all about knocking down our 3s. We have done that the 1st two games.

I knew KCP and Suggs would be great defensively but what I did not expect is their synergy. I never understood why Suggs was hyped for no reason, I now realize that KCP will add fuel to that fire. My goodness, if these two can stay healthy, we’re in for a wild ride.

Brooklyn has some good veterans and it was easy to predict Schroder will hit everything from 3 against us.
Its still very visible that we need a point guard. Our offense went too stagnant for stretches. Black is kind of going there but i worry we will have a very hard time against good defenses if we dont score much in transition like vs heat.
Great game from Franz. Paolo struggled but at least he passed the ball well out of doubles.
I would want to see more action in pick and roll involving bigs like Joe did last year.
My money is on Banchero going number 1 !

Regarding Cole.. he still has a very important role to play on the team. When he comes in the game he has to be aggressive.. if he's hitting shots and making plays he plays more minutes if he isn't he plays less minutes. That's how Mosley should handle him.

He's blocking Jett and I'm not convinced he's better.

People still wanna trade our biggest impact player for empty stats losers like Anfernee "Westcoat Zach LaVine" Simons & think he is not better than Jalen? :lol:

AB made bigger progress than I thought over the off-season.

She was in 2nd row in 1st half but was front row in 2nd half...


There was a bunch of pretty girls at our game tonight. I think that Brazilian influx is making their way into the games.


Definitely better than that Bling Bling Clown Show in the 1st row at Miami wednesday. :lol:

Box score thoughts.

The Magic won the FG% battle and won the game.

15 made three balls AND 23 made FTa. To be high volume on both is quite amazing.

Another >2 Assist/TO night, on 28 to 12.

Low rebound night, but the Magic forced 31 opponent fouls :o

After the game, there was even a hottie driving one of those smaller bicycle carriages right outside the arena. I almost wanted to ditch my ride and pretend I needed to reach my Uber pickup location :rofl:
