With our inconsistency (which probably comes from having a team of shooters) can we honestly see ourselves beating MIA or CHI in 7 games?

I didn't see it before this game, and don't see it after. The Magic are what they are: a 50-win team and 1st or 2nd round out. Getting slaughtered on the road against Boston in January changes nothing.


I hear your rationality, but all it takes is a few words in the locker room and this team gets blown up. It happened two years ago to us and has happened to teams across the league for decades. We never know what happens in the locker room or in the front office after games like this. Yes, statistically, it's an anomaly, but whatever happens off the basketball court is totally unpredictable.

I don't know what can happen over a course of a season and playoffs, anything can happed, good or bad but you don't make that decision based on an anomaly. Orlando have shown all season that they can score more than 56 points. Everyone was horrible tonight it was just one of those games. If it becomes a pattern then you panic. There are other patterns that we should be weary of; Nelson, Redick and Anderson doesn't play well against better teams and they are our starters.

Technically Orlando has shown it can score more than 56 points every other time in its history.

We started off with a 2nd rounder. Then with a large beer, then a small beer.....then moonshine....then rubbing alcohol, cow **** is a fair deal though.

What starting PG says that to the backup PG of another team? smh


My oh my. That says enough about Jameer. I really think he is done. How embarrassing is this this? Ok Otis you need to move Jameer even if it's for some fries and nuggets. That's the last straw. I can't defend a player who begs for mercy.

Done double done!!

i am sick and tired of our pace man....why do we waste 6-7 seconds just bringing the ball up? shouldn't take more than 4 seconds then we can get into our play earlier and get Dwight the ball earlier...There was a lot of times Dwight ended up with the ball late in the shot clock and had to hurry and force a shot.....Don't know who the blame falls on for this one i would like to blame the PG but the JNO guys might have at me....

Good PG's can set the tempo and basically control how you play the game...For example take Portland last year when Andre Miller was running the show they were a slow methodical half-court team.....Now with Felton they are one of the best running fast-break teams and it seemed like it happened overnight....We need to pick up the pace or get someone that will....

It is the point guard. Anyone who says otherwise doesn't know anything. Something has to be done to change the mold of this team starting with the PG is a good start. Will management ever do it? Probably not.

We need team speed homie especially at the guard positions. I do believe that we may need to start shopping Jameer around for a guard that can improve the tempo and promote better ball movement. It was very disturbing to see a veteran PG in Jameer basically be shut down by a 2nd year player who barely cracked the rotation last year. In fact the only reason Bradley is playing is because Dooling is out.
