Why must we do this every time we lose a game? We could be down 30 and we'd be fouling.
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.

as much as i love the great pictures you always provide on this forum, i have a bad feeling about posting them before gametime on the game threads. everytime i scroll down pages 1 or 2 on the gamethreads and there are random in-game pictures of magic players that dont involve the current team we are facing, we seem to lose. hopefully my theory gets disproven tonight, b/c you two specifically always provide great photos...i would just keep them for AFTER the game lol.![]()
as far as the game itself...Jameer i feel will play a big key. He's coming back slightly rusty, and Miller is the type of PG that gives him problems. Camby will have to be outplayed by Dwight, as is expected. But if Camby drops 20/20 and Dwight only drops 13/13 i see problems. Portland is deep and talented, so of course we'll need EVERYONE to put in their money's worth tonight.
i just didnt expect us to lose THIS bad
Nemesis may not pay attention, but I do. I put player pics of the team we're going up against, or pics of the players with no opponent in sight.

Magic always play bad when Dwight is dominating the ball...

This pretty much. Although we still should have had this game if we played smarter and stayed on the attack.

Kerr and Marv are right, none of our guys got into a rhythm in the first half with Howard dominating the ball. Just saying is all. I've made my peace with a trade in the works
our only rhythm is catch and shot, thats why we need somebody who can create or drive. redick is the best slasher on the team
Well what I'm saying is the entire 1st half was dedicated to getting Dwight his, with some random plays thrown in here and there (that Shard stretch with the bench guys)
Even if we had a guy like Gil for instance, there's no guarantee that we would have run the offense any differently and so he'd be cold just as everyone has been tonight

Yeah, I'm just saying that besides him and Dwight, you need another player who you can count on consistently.

Jordan never fully understood basketball. He had the lowest basketball IQ of any NBA "superstar" in history.

Hopefully this was your only night to be awful Jameer. Normally it takes him awhile to get back on track after being out.

Well, the more we lose, the more pressure on Otis to WAKE UP and make a trade. This team can not win a championship

Dwight's 3 at the buzzer looked like an airball.

I'm not a blow up the team and trade everyone but i think i'm pretty much convinced that we need a Wing player that can create cause Vince fans i'm sorry to say but he's not the guy we thought we were going to get.....Still good player...but we need Great....same thing with Shard

Stop with the freaking out. There's no way Carter or Jameer shoot this badly in the same game again. Worst offensive game out of everyone but Dwight I've seen since GM3 vs Boston.
