Isaac looked great.

Send **** Vucevíc the heck out of here. Re-signing him was so dumb. Getting close to wanting AG on the same bus.

It's a loss, but I'm impressed with that lineup and Flutz/Isaac once again.
Vuc/Bamba are jokes right now.

If this loss taught us that Fultz should start and Isaac is getting into form, I’ll take it!!!

We gotta figure out who the best players on our team are. How on earth does JI have a game like this and only get 1 more fg attempt than DJ and well less than Vooch who only played half his minutes. If he is gonna play like this GIVE HIM THE DAMN BALL.

This offense can’t keep on like this if we expect to start winning again. These are wiiiiidddddeeee open shoots we are missing. We can beat a team like the knicks but after that the schedule gets pretty tough and this offense can spell a disaster if they don’t get better fast.

I hate losing to the Raptors but they are battle tested and champions. I don't like to be a moral victory guy but there are positives to take from this game. Also cannot stand Nick Nurse when he talks lol.

Clifford needs to accept reality.

Fultz-Fournier-Gordon-Isaac-Vucevic

Augustin-Ross-Iwundu-Aminu-Isaac

Should be the 9-man rotation moving forward.


Ooo I like that. Trade Bamba?

is he worth 1 or possibly 2 second rounders?

The Magic hung tough and rallied but The Raptors Defense and their own shooting woes most of the game were too much.

Isaac and Fultz are the future. That is all I care about. Put the pieces around them now. Bamba is the first guy I'm moving. AG is a close second. Vuc's contract is untradeable.

Isaac is our top scorer. 5th most shots. If guys like Ross, Vooch and AG come back to form and we put the ball in Fultz's hands more, we can have a good team. Oh, and Fournier has to stop playing hero ball. We have someone better than him now.

Tough loss, but positives at the end, that line up was a difference maker and I'd like to see more of it to see how it goes against other teams

Trade Bamba and Vuc. Start Isaac at center and keep Khem as the backup.

Trade Vuc and Bamba for DLo in December, go with:

Fultz - DLo - DJ
DLo - Ross
Evan - Aminu
AG - Isaac - Aminu
Isaac - Khem

Why weren’t we finding ways to get the ball to Isaac more down the stretch?

Hot hand? Heard of it!?

If this year isn't a playoff year (which it's looking like it's not...), we just need Fultz and Isaac to play together as much as possible and build whatever that will be.

Again the discussion is going to shift to Bamba predictably postgame because some posters don't want to address the real issues of the team. Bamba is only part of many issues.

Bamba is only a significant discussion if we're talking about trading him to acquire said player with needs that help the team.

One thing we have to be cognizant of is Fultz’s ability to play healthy without any pain. It’s early but that could be a thing.

He clearly should be starting otherwise.
