Man this was entertaining...

This team LOOKS A LOT like the 09 team.

They seriously need Deron Williams next season.

Dude, our starting pg needs to do a little more than that. I'm no Jameer hater, but he's not fulfilling the standard in the NBA starting PG dept.


There is no such thing as a standard when you possess an unorthodox style. We have a point-forward that runs a good portion of the offense which ultimately limits Nelson's touches. He'd have better 'numbers' by default if Hedo didn't play.

I wouldn't call Deron a superstar just yet. Borderline, maybe. All NBA 2nd team and definite all-star. A huge improvement over Meer, fo sho.

I see no reason why should lose the next two games... we should be 6-1 by the time we face the Bulls... let's build as much chemistry and confidence as we can... one game at a time, beat the teams we should beat and take care of business (especially at home)

Weren't they talking about daggers earlier


Sounds like they have sour grapes. The Magic had a lot of bad calls against them as well tonight. We came back because we couldn't miss in the 4th and our defense took over.

Lol. Deron just went 6-16 with 16 points, but only 5 assists with 6 turnovers. Sessions had 8 assists and kyle Irving had 13/4/4. Superstar, my azz.

im just glad we shut those announcers up... every single play they act like its the greatest shot of all time, act like theyve never seen a basketball game before.

He's a star, and with more help he'd be the Superstar player he was with Utah.

Their exact words just now:

"The Magic have turned up the defense here."
"Yeah, but the referees are allowing them to do it."

"Jose with DA DAGGA!!!" ... early 3rd quarter... got me so mad

Glad we kicked their *** at the end of the game...

4th quarter comes around and we started getting some calls going our way for once, and they b*tched... the first 3 quarters it was 8 on 5 for the Raptors, so idk what they are complaining about... homer commentary, what do you expect... annoying as crap though to hear

J Rich is a guy a guy who might be shipped with his contract

Redick flat out, outplaying him at this point.

Our backup PG is 'pass first'. Let's just start Chris Duhon!

I am seriously scared of Rose against the Magic PG's as they are horrible on Defense.

THIS


CP3 made a ridiculous Hornets team playoff material and took the lakers to the brink.... Deron just whines and complains when his team is losing. He's a quicker Jameer. I went to the Nets game and he looked lke SH**.... WHY doesn Dwight wanna jump ship for him so badly? Name recognition?

Aside from maybe one game, Redick has been right there with Ryan in terms of upping his scoring output

Speaking of Anderson... dude with another 20+ pt game... he NEEDS a sweater vest... NOW!

If he keeps this up, I'm voting him for All-Star
