I'm sure this has been asked before, maybe even by me, but what is the Magic mascot supposed to be?

Do the refs realize they are in Orlando and not Oklahoma City?

You seen an optometrist lately? Or do you not understand what causes blood to leave the body?
I've seen guys start bleeding because they thought too hard, maybe Paolo should relax.

Orlando are a couple of pieces away from being serious contenders tho, and they should've gotten at least one piece this deadline.
I was sure Anfernee Simons was going to the Magic at the deadline. The guy is from the area and named after Penny fkn Hardaway. It was a perfect fit
Yes they are the perfect team for him because he is really bad on defense but a great offensive player and they have an insane defense but their offense is a disaster. and HE CAN SHOOT lmao.
It's so obvious they should've gotten him, and Portland want him gone AND Orlando have a meh future 1st to give them for him. It makes 0 sense he is not in Orlando right now.

You're trying too hard, troll. Have you considered subtlety?

I don't think Paolo has had more than 2 or 3 post up opportunities. Just ridiculous coaching.

Man I have yet to see a single P&R run by Magic.
Why don't they use such a staple with so many big players who can finish at the rim?

They get another chance against Miami/Chicago should probably wait until they loss that one also.

I don't want to see Atlanta if the Bulls beat the Heat. Plural George always shoots lights out against us. Dude goes full Luis Scola on us.
EDIT: And he JUST hit a buzzer beater. This fuggin guy.

That Hawks lineup without Trae is rough

Mosley either needs an offensive coordinator alongside him or he needs to be fired and become someone's defensive coordinator.

Or player. He thinks he’s a wing. He might be in some matchups but not these Hawks team.
