In theory, he does, but the reality right now is he's not going to be a good enough playmaker to even fill in Augustine's shoes && he's not going to be an efficient scorer. Combine that with turnovers and struggles defensively where teams just spam Pnr"s every possession and it's going to be easy for Cliff to not play him.


I'm glad you said this.

I think Anthony definitely *does* provide elements the Magic lack, the ability to create shots off the dribble being the most significant one, but like you I'm not convinced he is going to be capable of actually making enough of those shots at an efficient clip to really make it worth the Magic's while.

But the only other option right now is playing MCW at backup PG and I think he should pretty much only be a wing at this point.

The Hawks commentator made a good point last night at the start of the game when he said, we have to remember that these rookies were drafted three weeks ago !

And was it Fourier or Bacon at SF?


Watching on LP now and bacon does look smooth on offense.

Good game for this team, Atlanta roster is looking pretty good on paper.

Cole has some nice moves and solid athleticism, would love to see him find his groove
