I don't see Cole and Dennis existing together. I'd be down if we can could ship Cole somewhere.

Credit where it’s due. Suggs has worked his tail off to become an elite defender and decent shooter.

I’m not on the Young train. I don’t think he plays winning basketball.

The "safe" trade route would be something like CTMagicUK suggested: Anthony and Ingles and a pick for Jones and Kispert (works in the ESPN trade machine)

The Embiid news of another meniscus tear is really tough news for that team. Given his injury history and body, I don’t see him coming back for a long while… meaning that team is about to drop in the standings

In the eight games since he’s returned, Franz is shooting 50/40/87 for 20+ points a game. Those are very encouraging percentages.

Hahaha!!! Love it

Curious if Kennard could be had for second rounders

As a lifelong Magic fan, I’m so thankful we have Paulo and Franz. They are both young studs and far better than I’d imagined they’d be. Can’t wait to see what our future holds.

Haha! That was good. I actually would love Kelle to be our Shaun Livingston off the bench and for us to send Cole to another planet.

Watched the whole game. Thought Fultz was average offensively, even with the big bucket. Until he begins shooting threes… and at league average as a minimum… I’ll continue to share the same thing. Others like you can also can continue to share that you don’t want a trade.

A huge shoutout to JI for his defense and Paulo and Franz for their consistent offense. Additionally, while I like Kelle a lot more than Cole, I still can’t get over his unwillingness/inability to spread the floor. I still hope we get a more complete starting point guard at the deadline.

What’s happened to Ingles? Dude looks bad. And that lineup to end the 3rd and start the 4th was rough.

Any chatter about Tyler Herro on the block? I’d still love that guy on the Magic.

I think you missed Crazy's question. No, this stat does not take into account minutes played or the context of those minutes. Thus, while JI has been a huge difference maker in the minutes/games he's played, he's played far fewer minutes/games than the other regulars. Additionally, he's played a lot of those minutes against backups off the bench. As to the games moving forward, I think it's a no brainer to start him like the last game. That lineup, assuming JI can stay healthy, is incredible.

The silver lining tonight is AB can/should be more aggressive offensively moving forward.

Luka, come to Orlando already!

Ingles and Cole have looked awful. Hopefully they can wake up.

We need to put the ball in the hands of our shooter… Anthony Black! Lol

Totally agree. He’s such a game changer on defense.

AB “My Ball Junkie” Black!!!!!!!

Agree. It’s easy to fall into the trap of recency bias. Over the last four years, not including his first three years in the league, Kelle has only been able to play in roughly 35% of the games. Add in his lack of shooting, and I see an unpredictable ceiling at best relying on Kelle as our starting pg. Maybe we’ll keep him and add a guy like Brogdon. That’d make this fan happy.

I don’t see why they’d want to trade Vassell.

Absolutely agree about MB. Probably only cost a first and guy like Harris. If we’re not pursuing a bigger deal, this should have been done yesterday.

This. Time to go all in around Paulo and Franz.
