Bring back Donte and sign another center

and a combo forward off the waivers if an older star becomes available

Towns / Kessler / Hukporti
Anunoby / Achiuwa / Warren
Bridges / Hart / McCullar
McBride / Donte / Shamet
Brunson / Payne / Kolek
Strength and Honour!

Not impressed TBH. Beat MIN, and Beat OKC in a couple weeks and I'll feel good.

Ugly wins are still wins that get added to the left column and it's a game that gets them past these very same Magic by percentage points for 3rd in the east.

On to the next game.

Melo still misses the pre OG trade team who piled up losses with over 30 pts of margins

SO the Magic are #3 in defense in the league:
https://www.statmuse.com/nba/ask?q=2024-2025+nba+team+defensive+rating+rankings

Dont care that they dont have Paulo or Franz...This is a big win -not to mention we held them to 91 points...And we dont have Mitch either...

They’re way more shorthanded than we are but they’re still competing. They nearly had the bucks beat in that nba cup game and that was on the road. So I’m not overlooking them at all. I very much hope they go on a losing streak so we can pass them in the standings

Yeah, I wasn't calling it a lucky game and I like the Knicks' defensive effort for much of the game but the Magic obviously lack shooting and Suggs being forced into the #1 option role has its limitations. I'm curious how the teams will matchup at full strength.

I think we stomp them at full strength. I think healthy Mitch would single-handedly cancel out many of their advantages (size rebounding). We dismantled them at the Garden and we also took everything they could throw at us on defense tonight.
