OKC is so annoying, and I hate that I feel that way. Like, they’re a new team to contention and they’re young and they should be rooted for over the Lakers and Celtics and usual suspects of the league, but they play the most unwatchable bull**** brand of basketball that nobody enjoys. They also get the most consistent inconsistent whistle I’ve ever seen. They’re allowed to play physical and never called for anything, you breathe on Shai and it’s a guaranteed foul and depending on the direction of your breath it may be a flagrant. Most frustrating part is they don’t need the whistle and the favoritism to be great.

Really quite beneficial for us that Franz' injury has coincided with us only playing 3 games in an 11 day stretch.
Good for us and for Franz. Really would like to see him get back so he’s still eligible for the all-star spot he deserves and eligibility is based off games missed not time missed

Bane is such a crazy combo of A-Hole and talented that I’m not used to having on our team. He gives us an edge we haven’t had in a long time, maybe ever. And he can back it up! What an amazing trade. Our ceiling hasn’t even been touched yet. Excited for what’s tincime

I don’t think the league is ready for when we have Suggs, Bane and Big Moe all on the court at the same time lol

Bane is that dude! All the people questioning the trade were fools mwahaha…
Not thrilled to have to watch Jalen Brunson flop his way through another game this quickly, but let’s go beat em! -
The ref in the 23 jersey might as well be wearing a Heat jersey
-
Good job bouncing back after a slow start. Horribly biased officiating in the Heat’s favor, need to get that **** figured out

Hey so because I can't remember things well, wasn't there something lately about ankle sprains leading to ruptured Achilles tendons?? Let's hope Franz heals properly 100% and isn't rushing to get back on the court. Don't want him to sustain something worse trying to rush back.
You’re thinking calf strains. There’s a direct correlation both in the nba and nfl these days of guys toughing out calf strains only to tear their Achilles

Wow.. we dodged a major bullet. Let’s gooo! P5, you saw what Franz can do to keep our heads above water with dubs while you’re out, now it’s your turn to cover for your brother. Go Magic!

This team is freakin cursed.

Paolo returns and Bane plays like dirt. Is this anything?
I dunno, this one was different. Early in the year Bane just deferred too much and disappeared, last night he just couldn’t make a shot.

Not going to lie, it infuriates me watching Paolo stand in the corner while anyone else on the team not named Franz Wagner runs an iso that ends in a bad shot. Like "Paolo has to defer" talk is all fine and well when he's deffering for good offense but Jalen Suggs contested long 2s are not that.
Offense sucked yesterday and it in no way had anything to do with Paolo.
Clutched up on D and pulled out the win though.
Miami doesn't really scare me, they're experienced and well coached and talented but they don't have a single player where I feel "it doesn't matter how good our defense is they just score anyway". I always feel like we can get stops against them. Even when Herro plays.
I agree. They honestly scare me less with Herro tbh. That dude is terrified of Suggs and AB
-
Not gonna lie, we played awful in this one and were lucky to win it. But, a win is a win and we don’t apologize for those. Go Magic!
Also, that ref crew was absolutely pathetic in favoring the Heat. The one wearing the 10 jersey is one of the worst I’ve seen.
-
Paolo upgraded to questionable for tomorrow night. We might be back!
-
Also, credit to the Spurs. For 99% of teams in this league, that’s a schedule loss every time. We certainly played like we thought they weren’t gonna show up tonight and it bit us
-
Darn, we’re not gonna go 74-8 and break the record.
Off night for pretty much the entire team except Jase, really didn’t have any business to be in it late, so even though it was a ref screwjob multiple times late, hard to be too upset about it. On to the next one. Go Magic!
-
Clippers releasing CP3… hmmmm
-
Paolo ruled out again for tomorrow. He’s 7 more missed games away from being ineligible for awards.

Yeah that’s exactly where i have my eyes on as well. I don’t think we can realistically extend AB or TDS. So t some point we re going to have to trade them..it’s inevitable
TDS doesn’t concern me as much. He’s probably a high end role player. AB is showing the traits of a potential max extension if he keeps playing like this.

What can we get for paolo?
I’m kiddingLmao. I have had the thought pop in my head that if AB continues to progress at this level there’s no way in hell we can afford him without making a move. It’s not a right now problem, but I think there’s a chance we’re going to have to make a choice between Suggs and AB in the next couple years.
-
Yeah, Bane has been significantly better on ball than I expected. He’s pretty much our point guard. What’s really exciting is he’s been playing so well and bringing so much to the table, and he still really hasn’t found his shooting stroke yet. Once he gets flame throwing like we know he can, the sky is truly the limit.

I agree that Franz didn’t have a great night (TDS was just way off all night); but our standard for him has gotten really high. His stats last night - 25 points on 11-18 shooting, 3-3 free throws, 6 rebounds, 2 steals and 1 block. But it was an “off” night because he only had 2 assists versus 5 turnovers and was 0-2 from the 3-pt line. Again, I agree that it wasn’t his best; so what is the standard?!?!
Most of Franz’ damage was done in the first half. He and Suggs pretty much did the best they could to kill us in that 3rd. He looks exhausted, and I don’t blame him with the usage with Paolo out, the broken nose, and once again playing euro all summer. It was great to see us just let Bane and AB close it and Franz not feel like he had to force it because he was outright back in the 2nd half. You’re right though, he’s set the bar super high for expectations.
-
Just like that, we’re the 5 seed in the East. 1 game back from the 2 seed, 4 games back from the top spot.
-
Bane is the first Magic player to score at least 37 in back to back games since T-Mac 21 years ago. Fits like a glove.
