You know... if this is how we steamroll our opponents? I shudder to think how we do in a close fight? Lol

Tough freaking game. They made it way harder then it needed to be. This type of game can't happen in the next 4-5 games. I need to see a ton of better stuff in LA.

Ugh I can’t complain about wins but this thing was ugly as ****…
Fine print disclaimer for Fultz:
I am high on Markelle Fultz. Yes I understand he is not perfect and needs to shoot more and better and turn the ball over less. I would really like to see him play one more year… and I did and he sucks time to move on.

Paolo has to develop a shot to open his game.

Road wins are never easy especially out West. Nice character win by the Magic. Was never worried cause we got Franz and they don't. Him and Moe were awesome in the 4th.

ORL just needs an upgrade at guard to be a very good team.

We moved from Tampa to Portland a few years ago and my son is an ORL fan.

Won one that we absolutely didn't deserve to win. But hey, put it in the win column.

Still, this game leaves me with more questions than answers. Guess we got away with it against a young team missing Simons, but this won't fly against the good teams in the league. And there's not that many bad teams this year, it looks like to me.

Thank you to the brothers Wagner.

Also, if Suggs stays healthy he has to make an all-defensive team.

Franz was settling a bit late with those shots. Cole missed some bunnies he'd usually make.

Paolo is playing well defensively, rebounding okay, assisting well.. offense from him looks gross though.

It's the right mentality but the paolo we know is way more aggressive than what we're seeing..... Could it be this "by committee" that mose is spouting?

Sent from the phone in my hands

Even when it was “by committee” Paolo was still getting 20 a game. This is on Paolo. Something is wrong.
