  1. Anez is the worst. Can't believe his gator homerism Billy Donnavan. Go do the traffic somewhere.
  2. What will we complain about now?
  3. It's funny we're still giving out moral victories. I know the Spurs are defending champs but the truth is they're mostly old and not very athletic. From the Magic fan perspective they're great but I was just looking at the Yahoo comments about this game and Spurs fans think their team stinks and possibly won't make the playoffs. Different perspectives I guess. I know most of the fans here have had it with JV myself included but at some point every player on this team has to take responsibility. This team hasn't held a team under 100 in a month. Geeez.
  4. Lay ups and bad threes.
  5. This is perfect. You see it I see it why doesn't our coach see it. This team needs consistency for a start.
  6. I'd do it but we may have to throw in JV for Brian Shaw to make them bite.
  7. JV has to go. He hasn't created an identity for this team in 2-1/2 years. His crappy changing line ups and substitutions have ruined Mo and Nicholson and now it seems he's trying to screw up two of our best offensive options in Harris and Fournier. The problem is who to replace him with? The way this team is playing I don't see much of a chance to get a good coach in even if we could identify one.
  8. Ok I'm watching again. It's like a car accident. I just can't turn away.
  9. These next five games are going to be really tough. Especially if you factor in what we did in the previous stretch of what looked to be five easier games. This could really hurt.
  10. Just watched this game this morning and my day is ruined. How do you get torched by a bunch of 10 day contracts? At this point the Magic have three untouchable players Vuc, Payton and Gordon. I don't get the fact that at the beginning of the year we were sold that we would have a young athletic defensive minded team and we have evolved into this. I don't think JV is an NBA coach but this game wasn't all on him, there were three guys out there playing with heart at all the rest were just going through the motions. In JV's after game pressers I wonder why he finds it so difficult to give Payton any real praise for his work? "He did a (pause) commendable job. Really. I think he D ed up like a mad man and dished out 11 assists which could have easily been 15 or 16 if his team mates made a few more open shots. At this point I'm looking for a lot more traffic on the 2015 draft page. On an unrelated matter, props to Klay Thompson.
  11. We all know when you play bad you won't get the calls but how can Vuc take 22 shots mostly inside and only get to the line 2 times?
  12. No problem scoring it's just the Swiss cheese d.
  13. So true there. With Harris in maybe Tony Allen wouldn't have been able to switch on Oladipo. I'm sure one of them would have been able to create some offense.
  14. This was the first game in a loooong time that I was really looking forward to, and the boys didn't disappoint. Loved the intensity of the "Killer Vs" I would have liked to have seen VUC Gasol Dwight but I guess outplaying him and getting the win is good enough. I'm also glad JV has finally realized that Victor is a 2 guard. These guys did great again against a very good team but I really think Peyton is the one making this thing go. The way he was pestering Beverly full court really took a lot of time off Houstons half court sets disrupting their natural flow. Also his new wrinkle of taking it to the lane and"Hey this guy might actually shoot" gives us so many possibilities. Lastly the dude plays fast but is relaxed. On the play where he was pinned on the baseline and found Vic for the power dunk you could see his facial expression was just so chill. Another big test coming up against a very good defensive team in Memphis. It should be interesting to see how JV integrates Harris into this new scheme.
  15. Easily the best game of the year a total team EFFORT. Vuc is just an angry beast see you at the all star game. Dipo played great at both ends glad to see him close this one out in style. Payton (running) the point and actually looking for his shot was a thing of beauty. Marble played a complete game running, passing and shutting down Butler. Good effort from everyone on the bench. Frey ? Oh and JV was standing up and coaching the entire game. You could see these guys getting winded but as young as they are and if you sub right this is how we should be playing. On a side note Vuc was fouled on that dunk.
  16. I didn't get to watch this game but it must have been horrible because the Magic texting service didn't even bother sending them out. I try not to be negative but this team needs some continuity bad. It seems we are to the point where JV is just sending out whatever, except Harkless.
  17. Magic got lucky in the fourth quarter with a line up that was just playing loose and hustling. In the last 30 or so seconds when they really needed to formulate a plan and come up with a play JV fell dreadfully short again. I hear a lot about the inexperience of the players but it's the coaching staff as well.
  18. I guess Stan cutting a near max player outright sent a powerful message. Pistons should make the playoffs. I really miss Stan's no BS approach.
  19. It's good to see us beat a bad team. That's what a team like the Magic are supposed to do. We play better on the road than at home.
  20. I don't post a lot on this board but I do like to read what other fans are thinking. You young lady (if you are a lady) can't really believe all this stuff you put on this board. You're just trying to make the rest of us feel really smart, and doing a great job.
  21. Just watched the game this morning. That's some time I'll never get back ouch. I thought this team was supposed to be young and athletic, they sure didn't look like it to me. Plillis D-league defense held us under 90 points and we were lucky to get that. Soft both mentally and physically.
  22. Did you notice in JVs after game press conference when asked about Paytons' good game all he could say was he made some mistakes? Either he didn't watch the game or he was still trying to justify not starting him. Last week JV was giving us all that about Willie Green earning playing time, what about EP ? Please start him before it's too late.
