4 minutes ago, TrueMagicFan07 said:CT, I appreciate your reaching out to me and wanting to know if I would make game threads for our playoff games. Unfortunately, I am flying up to my vacation home in Maryland on May 1 and will be there 5 weeks. I will only be able to follow the playoffs on an 8-inch tablet using a mobile hotspot device (Comcast charges too much for internet and wi-fi).
I could do the opening game if it started by April 27.
Game 1 is April 20th.
Then I expect Game 2 will be 3-5 days later.

Thread for all discussions on the playoffs and the play-ins across the league now the regular season is over.
What are people's predictions?
The West looks an absolute bloodbath. I'm thinking a Nuggets/Clippers WCF and a Nuggets/Celtics finals. Struggling to pick the other East finalist, Philly maybe?

GO MAGIC!
TMF any chance of game threads for our playoff games?
I was planning on making them myself but I wouldn't do it with the same care and effort you would.

The Lakers winning last night was kinda good for us. Pushed us into a 4 way tie for 16th-19th pick rather than a 3 way tie for 17th-19th and gave us a chance at pick 16.

9 minutes ago, MagicFanDan said:Or would you throw more size out there since they are big?
we could go huge and go
Suggs
issac
Franz
Paolo
Wendell.
putting JI on Mitchell would be wild, but potentially very effective.
I think you play Suggs on Mitchell, Harris on Garland, Franz on Strus, Paolo on Mobley and JI on Allen.
The reason you play JI on Allen is because Allen has no post game so you can switch a Mitchell/Allen pick and roll then so long as you can box Allen out you take him out of the game on offense.
It could also work with Franz on Allen. See this video for in depth breakdown of what I'm talking about: https://youtu.be/Y-Eq5WvTq30?si=erY2blSPnJKO7vCu

Seeing people say Cleveland threw their game tonight to avoid Miami/Philly and get us in round 1.
Use that as motivation.

Very true.

I think Coby White is a cautionary tale on giving up on young guys. Took him until year 5 to really figure it out.

Do we know when Game 1 is?
-
Thanasis missing a wide open dunk in garbage time. What a beautiful finish to that game.

Just now, orlandoholic said:i bet the Knicks looking at the score and will loose. It would be kinda stupid not to.. It’s first round matchup vs Miami/ Philly or vs Pacers
Not sure I'd be super excited to play the Pacers either. They've scored 150+ points tonight.
-
Doc my guy get your old ass team wrapped in bubble wrap for their first round exit and give our young guns some rest.
-
This is the team that makes you feel like they can win every game. I don't know who that other team has been the last few games but this is my *****ing Magic team.

Defense so good these mfers dont even want to pass to each other because every time they do they turn it over.
-
Franz and Paolo want this man.
-
Let's close this game out.
-
Cole reaching there is bad. Have to know the foul situation.
-
Love this from us. They've done some crafty vet stuff to get FTs and we're showing we can do that too if that's the game they want to play.
-
I've been harsh on Paolo lately but he's been unbelievable so far today.

1 minute ago, orlandoholic said:21 to 9 FTA in favor of the Bucks, despite our team driving to the basket for the most part
Have to give them FTs because otherwise they wouldn't be able to score. We're smothering them.
-
Wendell been big off the bench so far.
-
Bucks getting bailed out big time.
-
Just now, orlandoholic said:we don’t get the same calls.. It’s not so bad as last game, but still.. It takes a hard foul on us to actually get a whistle
Case in point that Gary Harris foul call with Portis setting a moving screen on him.
-
As expected all the teams playing our peers are taking a beating. We need to do this ourselves.
