Him and Drummond went for the same rebound and collided hard. Thon Maker looked at him with a look that could melt paint lol.

Definitely like the way the team is playing, especially on defense. A world of difference from the first 5 games.

This is everything for guards especially at that size. You can tighten handles up some but that natural creativity is just not something you see guys improve upon. Put Coles shot form and intensity in Markelles body/handles and you would have something special.

Vuc has been really poor on both ends tonight. I suppose he was due for a bad game, but this has not been a good showing for him.

Last year Bamba would have just jacked that 3. Now he is trying to move the ball. I guess that is at least a positive...

Bradley Beal has 59 points against the 76ers. We understand your frustrations Philly.

Good win for The Magic but everyone's basketball thoughts are with Markelle Fultz.

Talk about taking advantage of an opportunity. Jordan Bone very impressive game. And the potential for puns is through the roof

I wish I could get excited about Bamba. But he just does nothing for me. I don't see him lasting in this league.

Let me also say I have always liked Jordan Bone and feel he is really going to help.

Good win, I guess. But I have no excitement for this team anymore if I'm being honest.

Sending my well wishes and energy to Markelle Fultz. Hopefully he escapes a season ending injury. Another good win by the Magic. The guys stepped up when he went down. Liked how AG played again in this game. Really liked how the bench played. Bone really stepped up and gave us some nice minutes. Now the schedule gets interesting.

Return to Orlando Magic
