We’re ok guys. I expected Game 1 to be like this. We’ll adjust and hopefully come up with a better effort. If we get close, Toronto will start to press and anything can happen.

Playing this bad really closes out margin for error. We’re not good enough to play this poorly against a short handed team.

First real bad night of the season. Unfortunately against one of the worst teams in the league right now. Really miss our PG's tonight offensively. These nights happen. Doesn't spoil the ride so far this season. We were due for a dud. Hopefully, Payton get back soon.

I feel the same way. I'm excited about the start, but waiting on something bad to happen. Did not see this coming. Felt that we would be improved, but the improvements made by our individual returning team members is astounding. The acquisitions have been solid and the team appears to have turned a corner. This has been fun to watch. Interested to see if this play continues, what the national media will think. Go Magic!

Just when you think the season can't get more frustrating, this happens. At least there's the Knicks.

Just finished watching game from start to finish. Recorded game as I do them all because I'm usually out and about or working. Great game! Wish team could be a little more consistent. Don't expect outrageous offensive numbers every night, but defensive intensity and energy is a must for this team to be successful. Team growing, but we as fans want things to change over night. Great Win!

I hate to say this, but this game feels like a loss already. We look like that team that was dead in the water a week ago. Need a jolt of energ from somewhere.

Here we go again. We can't play with a lead. Unbelieveable!!!

Obviously we are not focused. Can't afford to drop this game.

The grind it out philosophy doesn't work when you don't have any consistent offensive threats. We have none. Fournier would be a good sixth man on a good team. Here he's our go to guy.

This is the worst display of High School basketball that I have seen this year. We are barely beating the equivalent of a rec team right now.

The message board won this game! Great game guys. Let's make this one a turning point. Go Magic!

Wowww!

That's the growth I was talking about. Good answer! Can Vuc play any worse defensively?

We all should have known this was coming. Let's see some growth and play a good final quarter.

Ok guys, lets see if we can keep up our defensive intensity when we hit our customary drought in the 2nd half. Great half but we have to close out these games like tonight.

Obviously the real Serge Ibaka never left OKC. He just showed up tonight.

As usual, we have no one that can make a shot. You can see the drought coming from a mile away.

Is it just me or it doesn't look like our team likes playing with each other. No emotion or interest. Could just be the loosing.

Hey Guys, Let's wait and see how the roster looks in a few weeks. I liked Vic as well, but agree that he and EP were a backcourt with challenges. Ibaka gives us a defensive stopper to compensate for Vooch. You can't trade players with no value. That's why Nicholson is still here. I like the trade with an eye out for free agency. Should be interesting.

I think Vooch would be a great backup Center, if we should by some miracle end up with Dwight. He could help out branch offensively and if Dwight goes down for a bit with an injury, we have an above average backup and Dedmon can pitch in as well. It's just two games, but good to see. Olidipo seems to have found his stride as well and Gordon is a possible Superstar in the making.

Guys, I know this is Brooklyn and I know it's not a whole to play for, but our team seems to be buying in again like the start of these aeon. Also take note that we are a better team defensively with a defensive minded center (Dedmon) starting. I love Vucevic and his offensive skill level, but we're shooting the lights out with few so called offensive players. Best half of the season. Energy is up and playing good defense. Can we learn from our past and finish the game in the 2nd half? Let's see. Now we look like a team with promise. Sorry that it's too late. Go Magoc!!!

When you are offensively challenged like us, a 9 point lead is like 20. Our defense is horrible. I'm convinced we are not as good as our hot start. Too many mistakes too often.

We're not a smart team right now. Unforced turnovers, weak defense and no energy.

When Vooch is so passive and is getting pushed around, he is no good to us on the court. He has regressed for some reason.
