magicdoc1 261 Report post Posted January 19, 2019 Bucks Guards are going to destroy us.. DJ is a good player but not enough to play in crunch time. Reason why Fournier is the one handling the ball at the last minute . DJ is Too small to defend stronger and bigger guards. Bledsoe and Brogdon will be too much for him. We need someone athletic and taller like DSJ.. too bad is not available. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MagicOne 119 Report post Posted January 19, 2019 How many times can you come back mentally from heart wrenching defeats such as this in one season ? Eventually the weight of such collapsing will crush the Magic season. It would be like sitting on a 60 year old rusty lounge chair until it snaps like a pretzel.

MagicOne 119 Report post Posted January 19, 2019 This might sound weird but I would rather have the Magic play either even most of the game or behind by a few points. When they go up by 20 or so the defense goes in the tank. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JJZFL 618 Report post Posted January 19, 2019 Seems like Clifford mostly making excuses for them now in the post game. A big contrast from earlier in the season, and I don’t like it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MagicOne 119 Report post Posted January 19, 2019 Isaac was a minus 12 tonight. Vooch was a minus 13. AG went out with 9:19 left and the score 100-94 Magic. That is when JI entered the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have never let losing a game upset me. But it was kinda frustrating tonight, especially after every game the camera pans to Fournier looking up at the scoreboard(?) like "I should have (or could have) made that shot". I'm not a violent person, but sometimes I want to throw a shoe at him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No more calling them out, etc. I mean yeah if you blow a 20 something lead once or twice that is one thing, But this is a pattern now for this team. It is almost like he is preparing for the inevitable. Sends a bad message imho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it was a pizza you had started eating, it would be a waste of your money. Pizza is too good to waste on Fournier. It should be something that you plan on throwing away after you smack him.
