We are so lucky to have him on the team. He’s the real deal.

The Knecht/Mark Williams trade was rescinded BTW

Not surprised

Mark Williams is most likely the reason why. A big man with back problems like him is a walking red flag

We saw what the back injuries did to Dwight

But he was averaging 20/10 or 16/10 (can’t remember which one) since he’s been back.

Lakers are going to be a disaster lol!

Harris is not making much, its Jett problem that he can't outplay him

But is that the case though? Some times with mose i wonder....he plays favorites, Jett can hit 3 3s in a row but if he makes One bad rotation defensively he's getting yanked....on the flip side gary can give you nothing on both ends of the floor but he doesnt make a mistake he keeps getting minutes....mose doesnt care about offense, iirc jetts last 10 appearances he's shooting over 40% from 3 on a team that has a shooting problem....

i just don't know where we are, are we trying to win or develop? I just feel like it can't be all defense All the time...show some confidence in him, throw him out there with a good lineup see what happens, what could it hurt the front office gave up on the season anyway

This is a stars game. When they play well, we have a good chance. When they’re crap, we get blown out. Franz keeps this up and Paolo gets it together, Magic should be hard to beat. Suggs gets back to last season offensively, then they are really hard to beat.

Injuries really f**cked this season.

Such a great Monday night win

Don't kill my weekend so quickly, Man! lol

Is it your Monday or are in you in a Mars time zone or something.

The Monday game I'm looking forward to is seeing if Luka gets injured in his Lakers debut (no jinx) like Anthony was injured in his Dallas debut.
Thankfully, that's 3.5 hours after the Magic Monday game.

It’s nice to see that he returned the compliment when Paolo complimented him during the game 7 performance. They need each other to be at their best to win games.

When a player shoots 37.5% from the field and 32% from the 3 all while playing poor defense, they have not earned or deserve any minutes. Jett will be out of the league in a few years or be an end of the bench player for some team somewhere maybe. Harris is a 36% career 3 point shooter. Just not getting looks for shots. Evidently, his role has been relegated more for defense, something Jett lacks as he shoots worse and plays poor defense.

Its gonna be a fun locker room for both teams.

20-15 with Suggs and now 6-13 without.

I will say, AB gave us most of what Suggs provides minus the maniacal energy. The defense was on point and so was the 3 point shooting.

[OrlandoDream]

Star game from Franz once again but we don't win this without JI and AB. Paolo did hit the GW but he is nowhere near back to his form. AB needs to play with this level of grit every game! When he is aggressive like this we are much harder to beat. Its not surprise we won 2/3 three when AB played well.

[thelead]

Paolo not being able to get to the free throw line is the clear indicator that he’s not where he needs to be physically

[DiplomaticMagic]

Wish AB played like this all the time, he has the ability but next game he will likely play timid and unsure of himself. Prove me wrong AB.

[pepe1991]

We are 16-9 at home as our role players play solid home games with support of fans.
On the road 10-19.

I could care less what he's done for his career, in Orlando he's barely played the last couple seasons and when he does he negligible on defense and offensively muted. At this point I don't care about defense, defense isn't more or less the reason we've been getting blown out. If the season is shot and it is why not let him loose see what he got. We already know what Gary has and that's an extensive fashion sense. It literally can't hurt us at this point

Aight i just finished watching the game and we're so lucky we got Franz bc he is too legit to quit. AB played nice, his defense was good, drove to the hoop and even shot from the outside. Oh and thank you Ji for remembering how to play, gosh I hope he keeps it up.
