Fri Jan 23rd - Magic @ Knicks 7:30 PM

Let's be honest though... only an idiot would make himself look like a locker room cancer in a contract year.

Sure but since its his contract year, he wants to play as much as possible and get a near max contract which would be harder off the bench, I really like Harris for accepting a backup role, though I would like him more as our starting PF.

I shudder to think how bad it will get in here if we lose to the Knicks tonight. We are so inconsistent, I have no idea what to expect tonight.

Its just one game, if we lose this one it wont cost us more than the loss against the Pistons but it would get us a lot closer to getting a new coach, I would rather lose in a blowout here than win a close one with the Magic playing terrible.

Long term, I actually could see Tobes be a great scorer off the bench but on this team he should absolutely be starting. No questions asked. If Marble starts tonight and is guarding Melo.....

I've always felt harris role should be precisely a super sub who closes games. I'd much rather see a defensive specialist in the first unit to shutdown the opposing team's best wing option. Tobes will dominate the second unit and gives opposing coaches problems trying to match up.

If we can get one of our other 3-men (AGordon, Harkless, Marble) to shoot corner 3s reliably, I think our first team will be fantastic and with tobias off the bench, the second team might start putting us offensively in positions to win games.

Should start AG not Marble if we are going to play Tobe off the bench. That being said Oladipo scores 40 this game.

Long term, if you pay Tobias what he wants to be paid you can't afford to bring him off the bench. If Harris gets anything near a max contact he has to be a VERY PRODUCTIVE starter and honestly IMO if ur going to pay him that amount of money he has to blossom into a superstar.

If he is offered a near max deal should we match? That's on henny to figure out... I just hope he gets it right.

Vaughn is a **** idiot.

Yes, let's watch the 56th pick pass up and miss threes and then put him on carmelo anthony on defense. That should go well. If only we had a defensive-minded forward talented enough to be picked in the lottery and who could benefit from the experience...

Most coaches use garbage time to see what a 2nd round pick can do. Not our genius, let's start him, and see what our 4th pick can do in garbage time. OMG I'm glad I cheered for losses year because cheering for wins and watching this garbage coach drive our team to bottom of the league again is killing me.

Glad my newborn son is here to help ease the pain.

The broadcast crew seem surprised T12 isn't starting as well.

[Big A All Day]

JV is a tool and I can't wait till the end of the season till he is gone. Wouldn't mind having Malone come to Orlando as the head coach either.

congrats on the baby boy.

I'm indifferent to this game.

[OrlandO]

sticky?

[Orlwillbeback]

I cant **** believe this ****. Marble starting with both gordon and tobias available? This is a circus. Got to be some kind of joke.

[woosah]

Payton should be able to do that all evening.

[akhenaten]

Getting outhustled out of the box.

[OrlDave]

Nice take Elf.

[woosah]

Horrible call.

[ChosenSavior]

Marble hit a 3 at least.
