  1. Yesterday
  2. This is why watching the games are important. LOL! I didn't get to watch the game and i likely won't see many because of the time zone and the fact that i usually work at night. Great game, great win! Here are some good highlights,
  3. The Magic deep bench squad shot 0-5 from 3 in garbage time. So if you exclude that the Magic actually shot 18/44 or 41%.
  4. The Magic showed killing instincts in the 3rd quarter.....the more they have it, the better.
  5. Great first game and the first one I’ve been able to watch in a while (living in WV.) Obviously Harris shot the lights out, but Moe and AB do a lot for the bench. Black is a nice glue guy, as his touch improves
  6. Well you got it to 3 pages now. Lol. The hype train for this team hasn’t started rolling yet. 10-0 start would do it though. And also Football’s popularity and basketball exec’s business decisions in the last five years has put a lot of people off, on the NBA
  7. This checks off a lot of boxes: First game of season Big Win Beating Miami on the road Great defense Explosive third quarter I guess the only thing that surprises me is the tepid response here. Only 2 pages in this thread? In prior years it might have been 7-10. I hope everyone realizes that the season has started :)
  8. Great to see that our guys started 100% focused since the very first game and minute. We had a lot of 3rd quarter collapses in the past, let's make that key quarter our force in this new season.

    2024/25 Magic record prediction

    :D I opened the topic and then forgot to predict. 48-34 for me.
  10. Paolo Banchero tonight: 33 PTS 11 REB 3 AST 0 TOV Joins Michael Jordan as the only players in NBA history to reach these numbers in a season opener.
  11. Paolo Banchero of the @OrlandoMagic is the only NBA player to have a game with 30+ points, 10+ rebounds, no turnovers and a plus-minus of +40 or better (since plus-minus was first tracked in 1996-97).

    2024/25 NBA Regular Season Thread

    Anybody see that Nic Claxton foul on Dyson Daniels? Basically clotheslined him out of the air like it was pro wrestling. We play the Nets tomorrow night, if Claxton isn't suspended for it I'm hoping we don't see anything like that on our guys.
  13. Jimmy Butler hasn't scored 3 points or fewer in a game since 01/01/2021.
  14. Paolo really looks well improved with the careless turnovers. the whole team in general. Nice to see as it was a point of emphasis going into the offseason. AB looked good as well. Finally as aggressive and like a floor general, when he came out of college.
  15. A collection of stats from the box score: Paolo Banchero +42 Paolo Banchero 0 turnovers Franz Wagner 3/6 from 3 WCJ 14 rebounds Anthony Black 4 assists 0 turnovers. Also shout out Suggs, KCP and JI who don't have any super standout box score numbers but defense doesn't show up on the box score and they were all excellent on that end as usual.
  16. what a great victory.. We will be the best defense in the NBA if the refs let us and if we stay healthy.. Opponents just can’t get a break, we don’t have too many weak links that opponents could decide to attack.. Imagine getting clamped up by Suggs and KCP and think you get a breather when the subs start kicking in, but then you find yourself getting locked up by AB and Harris in the backcourt. And then Isaac comes in as well. In this game, imo that elbow to KCP that wasn’t called right before half was a game changer for the refs. Imo they talked it over and let us play in the 3rd quarter.

    53:29 lets gooo
  19. That third quarter we were just the best team on the floor by a mile. Everyone was contributing. Everyone played hard. Paolo dominated and looked comfortably the best player on the court at all times. KCP, arguably our best shooter, shot 0-5 and we still made 36% of our 3s. A couple years ago I'd have been so hyped by that win but now we almost expect excellence. Still, beating Miami in Miami is always tough.

    Markelle Fultz Appreciation Thread

    Still a FA.
  21. Congratulations on the win! And Franz shooting well. And usual nba crap with franz and Suggs in early foul trouble. Disappointing that Jett and Da Silva are relegated to garbage time and Cole is still in rotation.
  22. Great first game! Go Magic!! Whooped the Heat in Miami finally on the Pat Riley court dedication night with all Heat Alums present. Paulo with most points on a opening night since Shaq in 93.. could have matched or exceeded Shaqs 42 if he played a competitive 4th qtr.
  23. Why are Wagner and Banchero still in the game?
  24. The crazy part about all of this is that KCP hasn’t even hit a 3 yet. I would have guessed his stat line would be what Gary Hariss’s looks like lol.
