Hi all,

I wrote about how Skiles putting Frye in the lineup over Oladipo has made all the difference for the Magic's recent success.

Any thoughts or feedback you have are much appreciated!

Thanks as always!

Looks good. I might quibble with a few things. For example, the bench has been above average all season after being dead last in the previous year. Also maybe a typo: you say a 5 percentage point increase is "half a point." And I think there was an opportunity to put the change in perspective by noting the Magic were the most efficient team in the East in that span.

But overall it conveys the timeline and consequences of this remarkable change. Thanks for telling our story.
