2024-2025 Regular Season Game 47: Detroit Pistons (23-21) at Orlando Magic (23-23) - 7pm

[Jaxfann]

Team is not the same without Suggs (and Moe)

Hope Suggs is ok!

Can someone tell me what is actually wrong with Gary Harris? I know they said he has a strain but why is it taking so long for him to actually play? He is most definitely have to go through the reconditioning process before coming back because it has been so long.

He doesn’t like to sweat anymore.

Bring on Miami at 7:30PM on Monday
They have nothing for us
The winning streak started tonight

I'm excited! A friend got me a ticket and is taking me for my birthday!!!

Paolo 32/9/7 on 46/50/100
Franz 32/4/7 on 50/50/50

Paolo's free throws was 7-14 50% and Franz's was 8-8 100%.

[ORLMagicGirl15]

Like Paolo said this was a must win game. Needed something to prove were better then this loosing streak. Finally getting our guys back and possibly Goga on Monday. Great momentum win going into the road trip.

It also gives us a tie breaker over the Pistons. I believe our series with them is done.

Quick thoughts on the game......

* Got to get the free throws under control

* Paolo and Franz could be very dynamic together

*Suggs makes a very noticeable difference in the lineup

*I'm tired of wasting rotation minutes trying to get Cole Anthony back right

*Need Goga back as fast as possible

Cole was 3-3 and +7 but with 4 turnovers (some really terrible), Black was 2-6 in the same amount of minutes and +1. Not big on single game +/- stuff, but it would be easier to play or not play Cole or Black more if one was really setting themselves apart, but every night it's just so up or down what we usually get from them. Black did have decent size for their guards which was more useful tonight.

I think both have been pretty fine for backup guards over the last couple of weeks. I would prioritize AB for development, but I don't think Cole has been a disaster of late. Obviously I wouldn't have either as playing at an above average level even for a backup, but not terrible.

I did have Cade as 1-7 on shots with AB as the primary defender today. Believe AB also fouled him twice and stripped him once for a steal. Worth noting.

I think Franz will make it as an All Star reserve this year. Isn't that amazing?

Correct. The way they are playing it would not surprise me if they finish a top 5 seed. If we can finish top 4, having that tie breaker to give us homecourt in first round would be huge.

Completely agree some consistence from them would be nice.

He earned it.

Franz taking over in 4th was thing of beauty.
Suggs will end up with some SERIOUS injury if he does not cuts this human cannon ball playstyle.
Guy is on the floor every damn play.

We shot near 50% for 3 and had 40 FTA. This is as good as it can be.
And Isaac made shots off bench

Hopefully Suggs didn't kill his groin on that play.

[KillMonger]

If I'm not wrong Franz went for 25 points in the 4th going 90% from the field? Went nuts in the 4th

Or go after someone that could give us 20 a night..........................

Can someone tell me what is actually wrong with Gary Harris?

He’s recovering from surgery to remove his last remaining sweat glands.
