2024-2025 Regular Season Game 45: Orlando Magic (23-21) vs Toronto Raptors (10-32) 7:30PM

Score 37 in one quarter yet still fail to score 100…

[VFX]

Anthony Black played 36 minutes tonight and looked underwhelming against sub par competition. Can’t say I’m high on him anymore. 2023 is looking botched af.

[Bensational]

The best thing I can say about WCJ is that he has shown he can be a serviceable big at some point but whatever he is now is just not it. Whether it's the plantar fasciitis or the hand injury or whatever, he is just way too unreliable on a play to play basis

He has lost so much bounce over the last 2 years. He was still under contract for another season, I have no idea why they needed to resign him last summer. The conditioning team needs to figure out how to get him back to where he was athletically.

Goga should be so insulted at what he was paid compared to WCJ. Goga is an actual difference maker and WCJ is a walking injury waiting to ruin any offensive possession. There was no need to re-up him so soon unless they were just trying to appease Mike Miller. That’s the only excuse. Especially since he got a giant raise in the extension which he’s completely undeserving of.

Ever since he injured his back he has not been the same.

[OrlChamps2030]

I’m sorry but rolling into this game with 1 big is a crazy decision

You can’t tell me that Weltman treats this as a full time job

He refuses to move dead weight and holdovers.

He wants everyone to line their pockets and retire here instead of making decisions. Carter and Isaac would have been moved years ago anywhere else in the league.

Never traded a player on a rookie deal, always re-ups injured players, never traded a first (I think), punts on seconds routinely, never a buyer in trades, has whiffed on every pick outside of the top 10 (hopefully TdS changes this trend), consistently ignores shooting

He’s on auto pilot

One of the easiest jobs in the league. No media pressure.

The DeVos family really doesn’t care about anything other than fighting for the playoffs and attendance

Sure. Let’s go with that.

Ehh he looked solid then just looked gassed late in the game. I’d rather watch his performance tonight vs whatever Cole gives us.

One game will do that to you?

No. His skillset relative to his position and the rest of the roster. The context of being a #6 pick and requiring him to step up in difficult situations. He looks like a nice role player.

[rcklsscognition]

If everyone at the back end of the roster sucks as much as it seems why not shuffle the deck in hopes of finding a diamond in the rough? I guess TQ is that guy but keep going get rid of some of these bums.

I’d really like to see Castleton…why not? Even just for the Gator fans/ potential for a Rudy moment.

Those only last a week, based on comments on recent Cinderella story Queen tonight

[ORLMagicGirl15]

This team need help. Why can’t the FO do something and call up someone or make a trade?

[OrlandoNed]

Can we dump some of the useless garbage on this roster please? A third of this roster needs to brush up on their Mandarin.

[richi_v25]

Man we really miss Moe buckets.

His last 5 games against some of the best teams in the league he averaged 14/4/4 in like 25 minutes iirc.... Not too bad for me personally ,guess you're out on him

No, because that would mean Weltman has to do his job.

AB homers remind me of the guys who beat their chests everytime Hezonja dribbled the ball without bouncing it off of his foot

Sorry guys. There’s expectations with being a top pick. Not saying AB is a bust (yet) but he needs to show more. You can only point to “flashes” within games (as opposed to a stretch of games) for so long.

Thank you, it’s time people starting turning up the heat on the DeVos family. They are the reason nothing at all is being done.

Goga outplayed Carter last season. We all saw it.

Mosely did Carter a HUGE favor by inserting him back into the starting lineup and pushing Goga back to the deep bench. Pretty much guaranteed him the contract he absolutely isn’t worth now. Killed all his trade value.
That decision should honestly be studied under a microscope.
