Good first post. Usually, we get terrible trade ideas as first posts from newcomers. 

I want to proudly welcome you to the forum. 

Cheers!

Thanks. I’ve been lurking for a few years now. If my maximum contribution is Laker smack, I’ll gladly provide it.

I think our competitors for the 8th seed will be heat and wizards. 

We need to avoid long losing streaks like the past 5 seasons if we want to have a shot at the postseason

He does a lot of stuff in not a lot of minutes.

Yea. He really wants to be good. He clearly isn’t happy with his PT (I’m not either), but he’s in a tough spot. We’re winning games and Vuch is playing like an absolute All-Star. 

He did say when asked him his motor that he gets going quicker when he’s involved in the game plan. I’d love to try to get him involved more even in the limited minutes he’s playing. 

He’ll be fine though. He’s a rookie and it’s all about ups and downs. Hopefully he turns his frustration into motivation. 

I’m still a huge Mo fan. He’s gonna be a damn good player. 

I’m a big bamba supporter but his motor better be revved up Every time he steps on the floor. No Exuses. Period

Hell. I'll take 7-3 in the next 10 games. Bottom line is you have to actually go out and win them. Nobody just rolls over for you.

[~O~ 565]

You wanna know what the sad thing is?  The longest winning streak we've ever been on in team history was 9.  I remember it being said back when the late 2007-10 magic was dominating the league and changing the game with the stretch 4.

Good chance Tobias, Oladipo and Vuc all make it. Such a weird timeline

[CTMagicUK 1,622]

Honestly Tobias has surprised me. I always believed in Oladipo and hated that trade but I never believed Tobias would be this good. Then again I'm not sure I ever believed Vuc would be this good. Rob Hennigan had an eye for talent if nothing else.
