I could not disagree more. Houston kept making charges and Orlando kept holding them off. This was a great training game to plan for these surges. And it was critical for Orlando to win its home opener.

GO MAGIC.

In game 1, the starters averaged 2.8 turn-overs each. In game 2, the starters averaged 1.8 TOs each. Those 5 TOs-reduction explain a lot about why this game was a W.

And as usual, the team with the higher FG% won the game. This is always a telling stat.


Looking at the stat-line, what do the Magic need to be "perfect?" More rebounds and more assists. The low rebounding is particularly troubling.

Honestly I don't really understand the obsessive need for avatars of a sexual nature. Especially if you've been warned and had them removed countless times. I'm not trying to be a dick or anything, and this is certainly more eyriq's crusade than mine, but I'm just saying. If you need nekkid womenz, heck, you're already on the internet. Go look at nekkid womenz. It's not necessary to keep using borderline avatars on RealGM just to see how far you can push the rules.
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.

Yeah they're really distracting and I like to read at work sometimes without feeling like a pervert. She's *ahem* not ugly though ;)

Does good defense mean the other team has to be held to 10% shooting?

The Rockets shot only 44% as a team and included Kevin Martin being held to 1 for 10.

IMO there were too many easy buckets for the rockets. I saw quite a few blown assignments leading to dunks and layups. It's early and I think we will pick it up, but those plays annoyed me.

I mean this was a lottery team and we made scola and lowery look like damn superstars.

I agree with this.... also makes it super hard to look at RealGm at work.

Maybe it is because guys like to show off or think it is cool. Sort of like really baggy pants. Anyways, I got warned and don't post em anymore after I made my masterpiece of a Sig with too much cleavage I reckon.

Maybe RealGM could add a Hot Chicks forum.

One of the things I saw that I was unhappy about was Von Wafer abandoning his attacking of the basket and shooting quick jumpers. We have enough players who run up and shoot a 3 with 18 left on the clock. I hope he settles into attack mode when he gets the call.

One of our main problems IMO is that when shots are not falling we don't have a player who can attack and generate offense or get to the line.
