I'm going to go in person and give a bit more than the minimum as a fan tonight!

Let's hope we're still in the game after 12 minutes this time!

Better man than me. It's an hour ish drive for me so when I go and they get blown out by a team they shouldn't get blown out by (not uncommon) then I say I won't go back until we have a decent product that plays like they give a crap.

Still in the waiting phase. Feels like it'll be a while.

I just don't see us winning this one unless we get hot from 3(fournier dropping 30) or the other team plays like absolute crap. It's to the point were I don't feel like we can beat any team unless they play as bad as we do. I would love to be proven wrong but I could see us being down big early again.

Easy win.

My girlfriend just asked why I keep watching Magic games because I always end up feeling disappointing and upset.

SMH how does she not know we're about to go on a huge winning streak.

On top of girlfriend, friends, family, no one really understands it. Neither do I.

But when we go on another Finals run they'll all be loving the Magic on Facebook after making fun of them the previous 5 years.

I just don't get emotionally invested in sports the way I did when I was younger. I largely consider it a healthy outlet/distraction from the stresses of life. Playing was cathartic as well. All of my worries disappeared in between the lines on the field or court. I get something out of following the Magic whether they win or lose.

Hill and Diaw are the some of the most intelligent guys in the league and them both out makes this a whole lot easier for us tonight.

I think Diaw and his -8.28 PER would help a bit, but what do I know?

I'm already making my black magic rituals on the living room, asking the gods for a 1st quarter where we don't allow 30+points.
Just that and it'll be a moral victory.

No, not really, I'm just checking if the beers are already cold enough in the fridge. It's gonna be one of those nights...

If we go down by 20 in this one, I'm going to watch the soccer game instead.

lol. Right!?

My wife only cheers for FSU so she doesn't have to deal with my grumpy post game attitude when we lose.

I am so uninspired by this team man. I don't know if I want them to win or lose at this point lol. So sad.

That's an easy call my man.
The question is for who?

Post #20 » by **Def Swami** » Fri Nov 11, 2016 11:12 pm

Unfortunately, will have to miss this game live. Hoping to catch the replay. The Jazz are a really good team and with their big frontcourt, I'm interested to see how well we can compete on the boards.

Them not having George Hill makes things a lot easier for us. Their back up point guard situation is non-existent.

Josh Robbins ‏@JoshuaBRobbin
George Hill, who missed Utah's last two games with a sprained thumb, will not play tonight, the Jazz said.

But they also have 7X all-star Joe Johnson who will forever rain jumpers on us til the day he retires.
