The Magic could also, you know, make some shots of their own.

I'm more thinking of the Charlotte's 3 ball falling more than ours.

Lol, that hasn't really been their game even when they've been winning. They just need to make the game ugly defensively and swarm.

I know you have a hard on for the guy, but he took one shot.


Am I wrong though?

Why are our two highest paid players extremely low volume defenders? Insane.

KCP was signed to just play defense for Orlando I guess.

I know this team is all about family, well they need a serious family discussion about how they all suck at shooting.

They’re so undersized but they’ve completely taken the paint away and forced the team into taking more 3’s than usual - 19 attempts at half time is way beyond our usual rates, and Charlotte has only taken 15.

Gotta get Goga and Moe going to open things up for Franz more. Then the rest will follow.

That's all we do. It's absolutely maddening.

Not the best half but any road game that were within 10 is good so 4 ain't ish. I see us coming out better and taking that W.

We know a Mosley led team isn't going to just give up, so I expect the defense to be better in the second half but someone on this team got to step up offensively if Franz is going to have an off night.

And they've been winning games with his superb defense, lol. He'll get his shot back.

The contracts thing is just so goofy. Those two guys make what they make compared to the rest of the team because the team has mostly guys on rookie deals with big extensions that haven't even kicked in yet.

But you already know that and you're complaining because that's your thing now.

I mean this is a night we're begging for anyone to step up offensively and we're left with Cole.

We're going to have to make open shots to win tbh. We can say get in the paint all we want, but only Franz, AB (sometimes) and Cole (sometimes) can get into the paint to make anything happen regularly, and they're just not guarding us at the three to pack the paint. Scary times but winnable lol
