KCP having a baby roughly the same time as Jokic...

[VFX]

Can’t believe I’m gonna stay up to watch this.

Can’t believe I’m gonna stay up to watch this.

Why is that?

[RookieStar]

You guys think we let our rookie guard Bron or sic our best wing defender on him but gonna make our offense more anemic than ever

Can’t believe I’m gonna stay up to watch this.

We are suckers for pain

as expected.....need to keep missing threes from the SG position

[msmoore66]

While I can sympathize with that lingering feeling of doom (I get up in the middle of the night to watch Arsenal after all), I mean, shoot, if it's really that unenjoyable, just don't watch? We aren't that bad are we?

I'd love to be able to watch, unfortunately games are often during the work day / kids dinner time etc.

[SOUL]

No good choices outside of AB who forces us to play Cole as backup PG. Gary can't hit anything and defends decently while Jett is streaky and can't defend. KCP not hitting anything but defends well.

[Bensational]

Jett off the bench to replace Harris, or does Cole get the call?

[ogmagicfan]

Regardless of whichever of Cole or Jett plays with the bench, what we need dearly is them to step up offensively

[ogmagicfan]

WCJ just announced OUT for tonight

[RookieStar]

No good choices outside of AB who forces us to play Cole as backup PG. Gary can't hit anything and defends decently while Jett is streaky and can't defend. KCP not hitting anything but defends well.

Why not start Jett and let him go ham? Then 2nd half we clamp down the defense.

[Orlando Dawg]

The Magic will loose again because 45% of their shots are 3 pt attempts and they only shoot 30%

[SOUL]

The Magic will loose again because 45% of their shots are 3 pt attempts and they only shoot 30%

We don't have guys that score well inside of the paint with regularity active without Paolo (and WCJ a bit).

They literally need to just hit open shots. Really hard to expect a team to barrel into the paint without being great finishers outside of the Wagners and also ask them to play elite hounding defense. This isn't 2004.

[thelead]

There’s a reason why we get so many open 3’s. It’s a solid defensive game plan to pack the paint and take your chances against our shooting from deep.

[eyriq]

Hold down the turnovers, Lakers defense isn't good
