This team stinks and it might get a little better when Franz/Suggs come back. Our bench still will be booty but hey they play defense hard


It will be a LOT better when Goga/Franz/Suggs are back. Doesn't mean things are perfect but people are really understating this, considering we were on a higher win pace than last year until the last few games with way worse injury luck.

we had 25 more shots than the Nuggets :lol:

partly due to the FT disparity (31 to 16) but still

maybe you didnt mean it LITERALLY but they have a top 5 pace in the league, so thought that's what you're referring to.

Magic attempted 103 FG Attempt today. WOW. Denver only had 78 and still blow us out. Simple. Denver made more shots than us.

We have won 2 of the last 12 quarters…. Just pathetic. Seeing this team completely allergic to offense is infuriating. Brick after brick.

I'm more disappointed not seeing Goga on the bench. If we don't see him the next game, I think something is up with him. He's been our second most valuable player this season behind Franz.

Unless we win every game, the board is really negative. Tomorrow is going to be bad.

The Magic need to explain what is happening. He goes out with a hip injury, rips his shirt. Then they say he has a concussion?? Makes no sense.

when you break it down its simple, team is good when healthy, frisky when we have some guys out, even can will some wins.. but bad when it has to continue playing 3rd stringers big minutes and rely on streaky guys to keep you in games lol

would not be against some movies obviously, gary is useless, trade jett and package some 1sts, we can get something

Concussions can cause light/noise sensitivity

I'm assuming thats why he's not at the game

LOL, this is a good observation. We quickly use losses to fuel personal agendas

I honestly think our negativity just has to do with how tired we are of being such a horrible offensive team. With a fully healthy roster or without, this team cannot shoot. We are going on multiple years of this.

Maybe they are sending a psychologist to Goga? With the way he has been acting out past few games might be something in his head
