Apparently our "stat guys" only know pts per game lol. Therefor Ross is weakest player in starting line up and cause of all our problems.

Yeah i don't get it. Simmons isn't going to help our ball movement issues and TRoss has been our best defender.

Maybe Frank thinks he's the focal leader we're missing?

Or Fournier and Vuch are our modern day Pat Garrity and have dirt on Vogel.

.@OrlandoMagic G Terrence Ross said it was partly his idea to move back into a reserve role, adding: "I just want to do whatever I can to help.`We’ve got a lot of good players in here and I just wanted to see where I could make more of an impact."

Team player, unlike others

.@OrlandoMagic coach FVogel on lineup change: "Terrence & I have been in conversations about him maybe being more involved coming off the bench & w/ Simmons, we’d like to see what we look like with him having a bigger role. So it fits both players."

Yep I agree. He was 1-2 last game so this should enable him to get more shots

[All Eyes On Me 1,192]

Wonder if the actual lindeup change would’ve been Isaac at the 3 if he were healthy. Simmons in the starting 5 only hurts ball movement

It might just be a case of making changes for the sake of making changes. What we're doing now definitely isn't working,  so Vogel has to try something. 

[Tank Vogel 191]

Defense is the most pressing issue.

Vuc, Fournier, Payton still starting.

Sigh.

[jjgator 164]

Ross 26 pts 4 assists 4 rebounds 3 steals.

[Jay Magic 1,231]

I don't care who starts.. We need a W.. Props to T Ross for being a absolute team player

This doesn't make sense but sometimes basketball doesn't make sense so let's just see what happens.  

Reminds me a bit of when skiles benched oladipo

That's what I don't get. Different coach same method. 

This organization is just flat out weird.

“He [Ross] goes a lot of times where he plays the whole first half with zero field-goal attempts or one field-goal attempt. He’s capable of more than that. He’s one of our most selfless players. He’s not really lost. He’s making the right play. He’s just one of the guys that doesn’t force. We’ve got too many guys that force.”

What?!
