Your post goes to show how horrible of a job the league has done marketing and putting together the IST.

In short, if you don't see the giant trophy logo/design on the center court, it's not an IST game. That's the easiest way to know.

Not necessarily. Just because they market it doesn’t necessarily mean people will listen.

well yeah... that's why I also added 'and putting it together'.

This whole thing where the games are within the regular season and spans months even though it's only a small handful of games is just terrible. If they wanted an IST they should have carved out 2 weeks within the season and made ALL games played during those two weeks, the IST games.

Take foul on Giddey was bs, he still had Isaac and another defender between him and the ring.

These refs are a joke.

Chicago was so uncaring it put the Magic to sleep. They should have stepped on their throats

That's literally the point of it.. so that teams play harder during the regular season. Which they have been doing for those games. Now people are trying to complain about *NEW* things while it's solved that lol.

Gosh I just feel the opposite.

And that's not me saying he's a great center either.

In what way? He rarely rim runs. Rarely plants himself in the paint. Rarely blocks any shots. The only thing C about him is his weight

Yeah.. it puts me to mind the Todd Maccolough, Oliver Miller, Sam Perkins type of Centers.

Suggs' FT routine is painfully slow now.

But it's working for him!

Team got real sloppy and lazy the moment Franz went to the bench. Moe is the biggest culprit but AB and Suggs threw some really half-arsed passes which became turnovers too.

Suggs for 40 tonight?

Only a -2 quarter in the end, but the Bulls cranked up the slop and the Magic obliged them for about 6 straight minutes.

Suggs is somewhere near career high points

Suggs took at least 9 seconds to shoot a free throw

I wish Paolo took twice as much if such a routine give such results

Another suggestion is that it could mean that the person cannot watch the game so they might be looking at the box score or listening to the radio.

Maybe an offseason buy low project

I don't know how many Magic's airballs I've witnessed during this match.

Ducklett · Post #179 » by **Ducklett** » Thu Nov 28, 2024 1:58 am

Franz forgot how to play basketball wtf.

Would 100% rather have Lonzo for 41 games at ~5mil than Cole for 82 games at 13mil.
