As opposed to you who root for a player in particular to play badly.



redick and nelson clearly hurt the team... well redick would if he was out there for a lot of minutes...is it coincidence one doesnt play and the other lost his job?

i dont them to do bad, i root for the team. they both are a weaker link on the team and one dimensional.


Orlando will not win a playoff series with this current roster.

Obviously. Ron Jeremy hasn't been getting it done. I'm now 100 percent in favor of bringing in Andre Miller btw. The pg play is awful.

What's this about Moore and Dwight being down on his teammates?

If that's true, I think Dwight needs to take a look in the mirror. If he wants to be a leader like he continually says he does, he needs to set the pace. That didn't happen tonight at all.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

It was pretty obvious that Redick was the only reason Orlando was in the game at the end.

Dwight has a bad game, but still ends up with 29/15, but when they other guys suck, they really suck. Also, 19 turnovers won't win you a game, although it was good to see our guys with poise to try to win the game at the end. 38 points in the 4th quarter is impressive.

JJ with 10 points in 7 minutes, you think he'll crack the rotation now? JJ = instant offense. :nod:

Dwight is nott the problem here...If you had guys constantly playing loose on their guys and not giving effort wouldnt you get tired of it.

He has to help out on guards ALL the time, and if he helps then his guy is open, or his guy gets an offensive rebound, or the guard draws the foul.

I too feel bad for dwight.

yeah, there are a lot of people who root for a player as opposed to the team.


when you got guards who play terrible like bogans, evans, and dooling and a guy on the bench who doesnt play, but the only one of the 3 that can score its hard not to root for a guy that should play some minutes

wait, how did Redick "clearly" hurt the team..Jameer had horrid defense, I agree to that.

How can you come out and say Redick hurt the team? He comes out and all of a sudden the game is close.. He hasn't played in games past, so he didn't lose any of those for us.. You are clearly a hater of the man, plain and simple.

Are you freakin kidding me? Feel bad for Dwight Howard?!?!?! Half the damn time he doesnt even play hard. He got outhustled to a loose ball by Brad freakin Miller. Everybody on our roster needs to grow a pair of nuts and play some basketball. A bunch of freakin pansies. How the hell do you get stomped by the Sacto Kings without Bibby and Artest? This team frustrates beyond belief. Once the game is out of hand they play hard, if they would come out with that energy we'd be up 15 at the end of the 1st in most games. An can we please stop the Redick hate yet? You can dislike him all you want but he once again proved he can be very useful. He can flat out score and he hates losing. Whatever the problem is they better correct it soon. The season cant end fast enough.

Yeah 29 and 15 isn't gettig it done. He needs to score 50 and get 35 rebounds for Orlando to win.

Seriously man. If Lewis could dribble, If Hedo could consistantly challenge his defender off the dribble. If the pgs could score. There are so many obvious flaws with Orlandos perimiter players.

And what about Bogans and Evans? They are both bums.

No it's not like that Moore was being interviewed and he said something like I told Dwight not to let this affect him because it's a long season. He was down on himself and down on his teamates...
