If this season finishes up the way it appears it’s going to finish up, I think you have to fire Weltman and Mosley both.

Tough business, but that’s life.

Stan said the other day “The Magic don’t take layups or shoot threes” and I haven’t stopped thinking about how true that is.

Mid range shots in traffic are just bad. Teams figured that out 10+ years ago. Orlando just drives for fouls and shoots low % midrange nonsense.

I’m shocked Weltman didn’t trade both picks and Suggs for Derozen attempting to build the worst offense possible.

Nothing feels right but maybe Franz.

Put shooters around Franz.

And like Suggs, AB is not a point guard.

In a world where Paolo and Franz are franchise players this team makes the playoffs. Even after all the adversity we've faced we are getting healthy and in a position to make the playoffs. Failure to do so would be alarming.



100% correct

You can tell David Steel gets very annoyed when Anthony Black picks up his dribble
