Good 1st half by us. I'm just thrilled that basketball is back overall.

Nice first half by the Magic. Bamba was extremely good. Wish we've watched him more on the floor.
Release moore please :lol:

Cole looks to have developed his passing a little bit over the offseason.

That was enjoyable!

There was good flow and it was nice to see Mo Bamba play well and with energy.

I think Fultz will be an upgrade over Harris.

Positives:
Good defense, active hands
Playing with speed and energy on offense
2-3 guys had a really good half

That's about all you can ask for this season. They're not going to be a top 10 team.

I know it is the Celtics broadcast I am watching, but it seemed that Cole got pushed pretty hard there on that last lay-up of the quarter and it went uncalled. Wish they would have played the replay. He went awkwardly out of bounds off balance. Maybe he slipped?

Now he has to go to decision making University.
I like Cole but he seems to be always on a rush...relax man

This is all I really need. The young guys are going to miss shots and get blocked. Just keep the ball moving and it's still fun to watch. Hopefully they can sustain the energy through 82 games.

Cole Anthony playing extremely well so far. Bamba and RJ have been pretty beastly off the bench so far as well. It'll obviously take some time for Suggs and Wagner.

Really good production out of the center position in the first half.

20 points and 11 rebounds between the two.

Smart will be the toughest defender Suggs faces all season.

He certainly doesn't look like an NBA starter

Franz is getting outplayed by Hernangomez and it is funny to watch.

Carter playing like the clumsy ball fumbling stiff he was far too often in Chicago.

Not encouraging.
