I just turn on the goddamn computer to write this; JJ **** US UP in 4th Q. WTF was those turnovers! They've changed all momentum. Cap definitely goes to JJ.

Sure it does. We're an avg team that beats up on bad teams. Cant hang with any playoff team in the west. Or any playoff team in the east besides Indy and Philly.

You guys will be saying the same damn thing when the Hawks knock us out in the 1st round again :lol: :lol: :lol:

I never understand why people talk smack to players about they getting beat when that person isn't even on the team.

Oh wait...no one wanted him even with picks. Go figure.


dude. Hedo gets shot down and we score 78. We need a play-maker. Or at least an extra one.


No, we need to stop with the false hope in thinking that Hedo is an adequate playmaker. I had high hopes for him, but he's done. Once we come to this realization as a team, we can stop relying on him to make plays.


dude, we are saying the same thing.

Man this is so frustrating! They know they need to take care of the basketball but they don't. Man I feel like like punching a whole in my wall lol... I ain't scared of the heat either. They get so many favorable calls. It's like wade and James playing football out there and you have to get out there way or it's a foul! SmH

I can't get mad at JJ. At least he was trying. Stan needs to bench Hedo. I swear this dude gets winded during warm ups. He is pathetic.

We still need someone that can get to the rim/draw fouls. Ellis would have been perfect. Also baby should never get as much minutes as Anderson.

Not exactly. You're saying we need a playmaker regardless; I'm saying we need to get rid of Hedo and our playmaking will improve by default.

Not to mention how horrible he is defensively...

Let's all hope that the team has a fun plane ride home. That seems to be more important to the team than winning and not turning over the ball so many times.

Actually, I believe this was the worst game he had against the Heat. He did pretty well in all the other 3 games, if I remember correctly.


He shot ok the last game, but I think he had trouble holding onto the ball... in fact there's some video breakdown no the heat board (maybe here too) where the guy suggests we follow the "redick rule" -- allow him 2 dribbles only.

tonight he looked terrible... everytime he touched the ball it was a brick, a horrible pass, or an outright turnover.

Everyone has those games, so lets hope he bounces back

I'm not going to harp on this one too much cause we were clearly in this game all the way to the 4th quarter and then it was just turnover after turnover. Like Stan said, until we value the ball and make smarter decisions on offense, we are certainly going to struggle to beat the elite teams in the league.

I only hope the Magic start to learn from this and bounce back tomorrow against the Bulls.

If these two teams meet in the playoffs, it's gonna be one hell of a series.

I just don't understand why a fan would tell a basketball player "we're going to beat you" when you're not going to help the team win a game because you're not actually on the team. In other words, I don't understand trash talking from non-players. I'm sure you meant it in a playful way, I'm just telling you, I don't understand the talking. I don't play basketball, I don't know if that's supposed to psych someone out, I just don't get it.

You know, truthfully I actually believe this. If Orlando and Miami meet in a series, I couldn't predict a clear-cut winner. Because at any given time, each team can beat the other. And people can laugh and say "clearly Miami" but I'm not so sure if I could say that.

I just realized there is no point in discussing this until the end of the summer.

this is the team we have right now and this is the team that will go to the playoffs. The best idea is to have their back 100% until we can do something about it.

Isn't this one of the things we always harp on him about? I really wish SVG would trust his youngins and allow them to play.

I do hope it was "just one of those games."
