Both teams have 8 players out injured and will play with 9 healthy bodies tonight.

[Rainwater]

Although all the remaining games are must lose this one in particular is extremely so.

[basketballRob]

This is our 6th game in 8 days, so we'll probably win.

I thought HArris was out?

[Anti Chalmers]

Let’s see which team brings out the better tank tonight. Have a feeling we’ll win.

[Message Boar]

Oh god this is tonight already? I really need some sleep.

Please, PLEASE lose, Magic. Our tank's taken enough hits already lately.

[Howard Mass]

Let's Go Magic!

[SOUL]

Let's Go Magic!

This is the one we need to lose, Howard!!

Go Magic but not too much!

[Knightro]

This is like Game 7 of the NBA Finals... except in reverse.

[basketballRob]

Horrible call.

TANK!!!

[RookieStar]

Why are we making our tough shots?

[basketballRob]

Worst shooting game that I've seen us have in a while and we're only down 1 point.

[Rick Rolled]

RJ is looking much better the past two games after a really rough stretch.

[thelead]

RJ has looked more assertive.

[basketballRob]

Well if the Pistons win 2 more quarters they'll probably win the game.

[Showbiz Bear]

I love watching most of this team play. If it weren't for Bacon and Randle, this young scrappy team would be fun to root for, win or lose

Dwayne Bacon is trash would love to not ever see him again after this year.

Wagner looks like a solid 3rd C/F depth for sure.
Hampton is starting to slow down which helps him.

[MartinsIzAfraud]

Good close out Bacon you lazy bum
