*sits at the table on turkey day... I'm thankful for Frans Wagner and the Magic for believing in him.

Yep…. But this is not the Franz that we were seeing the last few years. That Paolo injury was a blessing in disguise for real.

Yes, I would like to apologize to Franz Wagner and Magic fans everywhere for stating that I wasn't comfortable paying him the max last summer. I'm a dunce.

I CANNOT believe I turned off the game after Davis put them up 4. I had to go back and rewind and watch the last couple of plays. Franz is definitely an allstar this year, if he doesn't make it, I will be shocked.
Not changing this Sig until the Orlando Magic win a championship (Technically Started 1-30-08)

Suggs played solid. Jett getting some quality minutes.
Franz punking 2 top 75 players all time.

I agree.
Happy to see Franz proving me wrong about him not deserving a max deal.
As one of his critics this offseason, I was one of his defenders when people were hating on the Franz pick then his poor summer league performance.
Happy to see Franz take his game to another level. Hopefully, he can do this consistently when Paolo comes back. I’d hate it for him to defer again.

Shout out to Mose for ramping up the minutes for Franz and Suggs. You don’t want to see it every game but in close ones, it’s needed. Especially while being down 3 starters.

How about the faith in Jett Howard to have him out there in the closing minutes?
FRANZ! ZOMG
Glad I stayed up for this one
