I’m not sure what to expect, but I do know that if Cody Z hasn’t shaken the rust off Vooch will go for 20/20.

Ive been rooting for more lottery balls all season, but I will not accept the shame of losing to an Orlando team coached by Clifford.

the Magic are the worst 3P shooting team in the NBA (not a surprise looking at their roster). I can only conclude this means they are going to have an absolute field day from three against our defense.

No Aaron Gordon tonight. That'll help.

Although it probably now also means Bacon will go for 30+.

Biz can NOT double down that hard and leave Fouriner open like that.

If he's going to do that then switch. Don't just leave him open.

yeah, stuff like that is just.....

pj sealed by legit big, biz of all people forced to close out on a legit shooter

it shouldn't be that simple. even if biz chases him off the line - we're boned for the rest of that possession

This is where I disagree with our defense. Analytics say you want teams shooting contested twos, but our defense doubles so Vuc can't shoot a 8 foot turnaround and instead give up an open three.

It's like we are incapable of switching and are content with just allowing the opposing offense to pick us apart.

It's maddening.

How is it that Biz is more reliable at catching a pass from Melo than Cody Z is?

That's just........weird.
