Interesting.
Didn't realize we play Brooklyn Monday also.

Lol nothing to be proud of


Actually I’m quite proud of it. I didn’t use profanity, talk about his family or say anything inappropriate it all. I just let him know that he was single handedly keeping the Magic in the game and told him to keep shooting - please keep shooting. Also called him rookie of the year after a few misses. If you don’t like that take your high tea elsewhere.

FWIW Tyler ended up 2-11 with 4 points. Obviously I’m not yelling a damn thing at Jimmy Butler. But a rookie struggling on our court with Heat fans in about 1/3 of the seats - I’m absolutely going after him.

I don't expect much from Jazz game.
I think Magic defense made them second guess their shots all night. They were hustling and coming thru screens, rotating on shooters like I haven't seen all year. They were cutting off drives. Then Mia started going for the home run shots because we got them off sync which lead to the blowout.

Birch playing the 4 must have an incredible defensive rate so far. Also Iwundu played well with them.

Really good win, impressive effort by everyone, the defence was on point all night, crisp rotations and active hands throughout. Clifford had prepared the team very well how to deal with Miami's zone. Ross on fire is really a nightmare to defend, just makes absurd shots with a defender right in his grill. But we also managed to get him some pretty good looks with on-point screening and passing. I knew it was our night when Iwundu made a big three.

Birch played within his game, and did so admirably if not with any staff lines. Iwundu was not good offensively, but did his part defensively.

Yeah, that win didnt do much for me. It just reinforced what has been holding this team back. Lack of leadership, inconsistent effort, inconsistent shooting, inconsistent off-ball movement, inconsistent defense....

A performance that charged - without the team's best defender - just shows how awful the Hawks game was. You cant build a winning formula out of players who slew wildly from excellent to awful like ORL does.

Vooch should be taking this team on his back like many other All Star players do, but hes one of the chief culprits in being focussed one day and peripheral the next. We need one or two alphas, Fultz, DJ, Ross, Aminu, Vooch, Birch and Bamba are all followers rather than leaders.

Got to give Cliff credit, he had them ready. Game plan was excellent.

he's a fan cheering at a game not saying anything rude. Stop the holier than thou act on here. You can teach your son to sit there and act like a quiet little boy when he goes to live games. Against their rival. Against a rookie who talked **** to their team the previous game.

I didn’t realize the Heat were on a back to back.

Should be interesting to see how we respond against the Jazz.
Orlando Magic are BACK!!!

Cedric, brother, find something that makes you happy and do that. I'm not sure this is the place for you.
