I got the Bucks in 4. I don't think some of the key Magic players have a desire to play more than 4.

3 of those wins against BK btw.

I would hope that this is the data used to determine the direction of the team as opposed to pointing to simply making the playoffs.

They absolutely have to know this analytical stuff. Even if JI was healthy I doubt we even have 15 wins. Cliff is getting this team to punch above it’s weight class any injury or off night and we’re a lotto team.
A scoring guard.. never heard of one. :roll:

Ugh yeah. If we would pull up the 17-18 and 18-19 draft threads there were so many of us wanting to draft Mitchell and MPJ. Makes it even worse.


MPJ wasn't that good. His weaknesses were on full display.


Yeah he's a defensive liability right now. But even knowing that, wouldn't MPJ look so good next to AG? In no world is Bamba more valuable than MPJ.

Yeah I'm definitely more excited to watch other teams this year. Go Nuggets! Go Mavs! I guess go magic.

MPJ was my guy even at #6 that year. I conceded due to injury but then the very next year we go with the injured Chuma so bull **** ****.

My dream scenario was to trade down with the Clips for SGA and MPJ. Or just to take SGA at 6.

But man it sucks to almost have both but take some guy named Jerome Robinson instead of MPJ.

Imagine the outlook of this team with MPJ and SGA :banghead:

I love that there are more votes for Magic in 7 than Bucks in 7. This means that if the series is stretched to its limits, somehow, there is a belief that Orlando is more clutch than Milwaukee.
