To surrender another 25 point lead. Clearly that won't come close to getting it done on any level. The win is nice and all, but they need to get it in gear.

The entire game was runs. They started with a run. We responded with a bigger one. They responded. We responded. They responded. We finished on a run. Normal or not to me being up 25 midway through the 3rd quarter and just scraping a win is concerning. We all feel the tide shifting. I am glad to see the progress in winning these close 1s. Like we did @ Spurs and now again tonight. Would be even more progress to blow teams away. In saying that yes Wall and Beal are top class players iso / 1 on 1 etc. Not trying to be negative at all. Happy we won hopefully we can kick on and win in New York Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We've got a lot improve on as we continue to try and grow as a team, but it's not as bad as you're making it out to be. I just wish Isaac could stay on the floor.

Yeah individually they are a good team. John wall i love as a player and would love to have him But seeing that 25 point dwindle down to 4 points was a concern. You just know its coming. I can't wait until we put teams away and it is less stress haha Progress tho... Happy days Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd be more concerned if we just survived. We didn't. We responded by going on a 11-3 run to close out the game. That's the difference in a "bad win" and a normal game 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After all the expectations are supposed to be higher for the Magic this season. With that being said it is a major concern to keep surrendering huge leads game after game. Just stating the obvious here that they need to clean a lot of things up if they hope to be a contender. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's the difference in a "bad win" and a normal game Thank you. I'm actually quite impressed that Cliff has certain guys playing better defense then they have in years past. People seem to forget that Washington has beaten us at home in 8 of the last 10 games that we've played here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's the difference in a "bad win" and a normal game I kind of see it as we did survive but more slightly more comfortable i guess. Like i said progress definitely and it is nice to see as the Wizards have had our number quite a lot in the last few seasons. Was impressed with Mo massively.

This team doesn't have that right now. Hopefully in time they will. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
