So your saying we should prob stop drafting power forwards who can’t shoot. Seriously we have no one who can make a shot. ( other than DJ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MagicOne 119 Report post Posted October 27, 2019 Well it should get easier in Toronto. I mean..yeah. At least we won't have to deal with KL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ML6 520 Report post Posted October 27, 2019 Had a bad feeling about this one all day. Not exactly sure why. Probably just bc it was their home opener and all my historical **** talking about Trae and Reddish was bound to catch up to me. With that said, still almost won despite playing/shooting horribly. Center play was absolutely abysmal. Vooch getting muscled, going up weak, and Bamba still having the worst timing ever. Not just on defense. Even on offensive rebound attempts he’ll jump like 2 seconds after the ball has already been rebounded the other team and outlet’d. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustBeCool 1 Report post Posted October 27, 2019 Nice seeing Fultz closing out a game! Trae couldn't be stopped though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And if we're so deep we shouldn't have games where our vets all play like this at the same time. Could it be that they are all comfortable already? I think we are going to be embarrassed in Toronto Monday night, if we don't turn up the intensity! I am with cliff, we need to get physical!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crisby pancakes 126 Report post Posted October 27, 2019 You're not going to win many games when your best 3 point shooter is Fultz and 4 of your 5 starters decide to have a bad game. Only take away is we played bad and it was still a close game, though that could just be because the Hawks are meh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OnlyFranz 289 Report post Posted October 27, 2019 Aaron Gordon has regressed big time from the player he was during the second half of the season/playoffs last year. He needs to stop trying to force his offense and play team basketball. We lost this game due to selfish play simple as that and Trae Young with that ridiculous bank 3.

You can’t be physical with the two softest centers and the smallest point guard. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Magicpassion 4 Report post Posted October 27, 2019 Cliff may just be evaluating lineups, maybe there could be tweaks coming. I’m pleased with Fultz but concerned with Bamba and AG. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MagicOne 119 Report post Posted October 27, 2019 This loss tonight was like the time Rocky lost to Wesley Snipes in Rocky 3. He got all depressed and what not but then proceeded to get his revenge later by knocking him out. Things will get better for the Magic too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
