With Suggs out, I'm really not sure we have somebody who can guard Mitchell well. Even with Garland out, they're still much better than us. Not an impossible win if Mitchell has an off night and Cole or somebody else goes off, but odds are we're starting 0-5.

Won’t be able to watch this one, but cheering for this team. This will be a hard one, I just hope Orlando doesn’t embarrass themselves defensively—who am I kidding, just play loose Orlando and have fun!!!! Go Magic!!!

[FFBlitzace]

A good test for Paolo against the size and length of their frontcourt. It wouldn't be a bad time for him to make some outside shots. Not forced ones, just the natural opportunities he'll get throughout the game.

I assume they'll put Franz on him. Like the other top tier guards and wings they've made him defend, he won't be able to stay in front of them the whole time, but he'll move his feet and make it difficult with his length. That should be fun to watch.

Honestly I love that they have him guard these guys because I get to watch more Franz Wagner.

I think I'll watch most of this one. I could really use a win after a tough day, hopefully they can pull off the upset (or at least keep it close).

[TheChaser]

Go Magic! Haven’t been around much for the start of the season due to some health fun things, but I like the way we’re playing. There’s something different and we do have some talent and athleticism for once. At least for entertainment purposes. But I feel we get on the win column tonight! I feel like this team is knocking on the door for some minor success, minor still though. Anyway, I think we win this one tonight and get closer to that long home stand and start getting some healthy guys back. Leggggooooo!!!!

Hope everything is good with you and I'm with you on hoping the Magic can pull this one out.

[ChosenSavior]

We really are going to have to rebound well in this one if we are going to get our 1st win. I do not think we really match up with them well in our current form. Definitely going to have to hit some outside shots tonight. Just want Coach Mose to be sound with the rotations tonight and start to instill better discipline on defense. Continue to show growth and learn from our mistakes.

[SOUL]

Thing I wanna see:

+ More Bol minutes/fun
+ Franz and Paolo knock down threes
+ WCJ rebound in traffic better and take less threes

I actually think this is winnable without Garland. Clean up turnovers and move the ball and we'll be okay.

All the best man!

This front court battle should be a great one to watch, I'm hoping our issues on the boards don't sink us.

But yeah, the backcourt battle is the one I'm worried about.

No way we’re stopping Mitchell tonight.

Magic defense has been pretty bad in general

[Howard Mass]

Let's Go Magic!

I'll be shocked if we even keep this close with their length in the paint

[OrlDave]

PB with the block already.

[penny_nz]

1 offensive board already for Cavs, it begins ...

[Optimus_Steel]

The Ballys app on Roku has the game zoomed LMAO. The app sucks.

How good having a player who can draw a foul so consistently

Lets go Paolo!
