Kudos to The Magic for a good first half. Defense was solid and so was the offense. We will see if the altitude catches up with them in the second half.

Denver only 3-13 with their 3-ball, and have surrendered 10 TOs.

Orlando playing this level of defense on the back end of a BtB in a high-altitude environment, the conditioning trainers are the "players" of the game in my opinion.

Really good half. Just a sinking feeling that this lead won't stick. The ball stopped swinging those last 4 minutes or so. Hopefully, we can keep the same defensive intensity we had in the second quarter.

Very balanced minutes load for the nine-man rotation. All players within 7 - to - 17 minutes played.

Nick Anderson is getting better with his commentary.

I agree with his point about 3rd-quarter energy. Will the mile-high catch up?

Isaac was open as well and he just dribbled it

said it a million times but he is a SG in a PG's body


He is, so why doesn't he play of the ball when fultz is on the floor?

I just don't think Clifford trust the young players. He still pulls Isaac in crunch time.

DJ's been amazing lately. The best thing about him now though isn't the fact that he's making his shots, which is great, but mainly that he's moving and making things happen instead of just pounding the air out of the ball. He's looking like he did all of last year.

How was that not a foul? Fultz was literally knocked over from behind in his shooting motion.

This game could break Isaac's block shot streak, doesn't have one yet.
