A must lose game. Critical stretch in our effort to land a good draft pick.

I'll just say this. It will help us dearly if we are able to drop this game to Brooklyn tonight.

I think its hard to lose this one, but nothing surprises me anymore.

Is there any normal reason why Magic didn't shut down at least 2 starters for a season ?

This game falls on a DJ day in Vogel's new backup PG rotation strat, so that decreases our chance to win. Not that CJ is any good, but he at least plays defense and is willing to make a pass (sometimes).

Evan is out.

Meeks starting.

Not sure that helps with the tank.

In addition to no Evan Fournier, the #Magic will play Terrence Ross in the first half only tonight to give Padi and MGH some playing time.

Vogels stealth tanking is real.

Very clear we are finally embracing the tank. Great news. This has been a great last few weeks besides the whiteboarding incident.

Really proud of the team, will be possibly brought to tears of joy if we can pull off a loss tonight.

Hopefully Detroit loses and is eliminated before we play them so Frank's losing without dignity initiative can continue after being put on hold for Indiana and Chicago.

Why not rest Vuc at this point? He still has tape on his achilles, it would be very easy to shut him down with health in mind.

That would be too obvious. Shutting down Vuc will put us in the same level as lakers or Suns. I still think Silver is gonna do something to the blatant tanking teams. Sitting out Evan these last 4 games would be perf. That will make is harder to score.
