2021-2022 Orlando Magic Season Thread… Let’s Goo!!!

I’m not sure watching the game will make you feel better, unfortunately. Please remember that even the very worst team in the league has about a one in two chance of getting pick 5, and only a 14% chance of getting the first pick. -
2021-2022 Orlando Magic Season Thread… Let’s Goo!!!

Apparently it was the night of the Center/big man in the NBA last night! I am sick so i think i will watch a replay of the game today, i did not watch it last night. Everyone went cold in the second half? This is why the team still needs someone who can get to the line regularly. Mo made all those points on wide open 3's right? And then when they closed out he couldn't do anything? I'm just guessing here, but i'm glad he had a "big" night because we have 3 weeks to trade his ass. Sorry to hear about RJ, this team is cursed with knee injuries. Still right on track for the number one pick. Again, i didn't watch the game, how could Ross only get ten minutes? Did it come in the flow of the game or was it deliberate? I'm guessing the team is trying real hard to keep him healthy so he can be gone in 3 weeks. It's going to be hard though since we keep losing people. This team needs a freaking lucky charm or something. -

Yes same here. I want to see what Cole does off the bench with Ross, but also want to see Ross moved to see what younger guys can do. If we got Harris back on a lesser Ross like deal, that would be great, I feel like the Kings, Raps, Wolves, Pels, Hawks or Knicks could jack up the price for Harris. Maybe our competition. Cole's had some monster game this year, but it looks like since he's gotten back from injury (maybe was happening before that) that he's negatively effecting the progress of team mates when he's on the floor. If that continues you have to bench him. The NFL and NBA are very different when it comes to development. We can look at the Jags at QB and see Lawrence making improvement, it only take a season and a half to evaluate whether this guy is making enough improvements to be a franchise cornerstone. In the NBA because the season is so long you have inconsistent performances and injuries that push that development out for years.It can take 3 years before we know if a guy is worth moving forward with. Even with Bamba's 32 yesterday, I think we've seen enough inconsistencies to know this guy has an attitude with being a backup and hasn't put the work in to be a reliable cornerstone. RJ we're still evaluating, I'm not ready to give up on him, but I think he is gone. I think Chuma is another one that you resign for the right price, but don't care enough to match if someone outbids you in Restricted Free Agency. For me it's Suggs, Fran, WCJr as the core and hopefully Fultz and Issac can compliment that into something special. -
Wow crazy stats
-
I never want any player to be injured but I don’t think having Hampton off the floor makes us worse.
-
Bamba is such a strange case. The 2nd quarter tonight is definitely what his ceiling is, blocks on one end, threes on the other. But he still got absolutely abused on the defensive end all game, and only managed 4 rebounds in 30 minutes of play. Like Embiid scored 50 points in 27 minutes. Sucks to see RJ go down, it looked brutal. We might not be seeing him on the floor again until 2024 with how our training staff operates.
-
I’m still not a long-term believer in MB. Too inconsistent. I liked that Chuma found his shot tonight and that Suggs played aggressive. On to the next one.
-
We can’t catch a break that Hampton injury doesn’t look good
-
Well looks like we have given up on this one
-
That’ll happen when you give up 47. At that pace the other team scores 188 in the game.
-
If they stay ahead he might be done
-
Man how did one qtr just kills us!
-
Fun first half, but I fear the best parts for us are already over. Joel could hit 60 tonight and I wouldn’t be surprised
-
Mosley isn’t coaching the team tonight
-
Mosley isn’t there, I don’t believe
-
So much for this game. Looked good for awhile
-
take out a uniquely hot bamba with just 3 fouls, then allowing embiid to score 23 (and their team 47) in just one quarter is a reflection of mosley's coaching
-
Could it be, Mo has found his stroke? I was actually sad when he lost his footing. I think he always had the ability, but not the nerve.
-
Haha! I know.
-
No sooner do we write off Mo in this forum and then he does this
-
Mo is having a game today!
-
Damn Mo! 20 point half for Bamba. 5-6 from 3
-
Embiid gonna put Wilt Chamberlain‘s 100 point game on notice if we’re not careful. Suggs is playing out of control and sloppy in his first game back in the starting 5

I wouldn’t be opposed to seeing how it works because in theory you’re right it would be hard for the opposing defense to contain since they can’t double team both of them at the same time. I’m just worried we are stunting the development of our younger guys playing Ross the valuable minutes other players could get. I wouldn’t be against signing Gary Harris to a reasonable team friendly deal seeing as he has found his rhythm and is playing pretty well for us. We need to trade Ross before the deadline and get at least a 2nd round pick for him. -

All reasonable points
