South_Aussie_Magic 90 Report post Posted February 2, 2020 2 minutes ago, MagicOne said: Remember when Kobe almost single handedly beat us in the Finals in 2009 ? Remember the fierce look of determination in his eyes ? The scowling ? He had the eye of the tiger. This current Magic roster doesn't seem to have players with anywhere near that amount of determination and will to win. They seem to simply accept losing as if nothing matters. Granted, I don't reckon there are too many out there who do have that. I think Luka has it. Don't think Lebron really took that on apart from 2016. Not sure anyone else has that right now.

Of course going back further MJ had it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
All Eyes On Me 1,212 Report post Posted February 2, 2020 5-24 on the game for Fournier and Ross, 3-14 from behind the arc. Take out their shots, and the team went 28-59 from the field and 6-20 from 3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course going back further MJ had it. Yeah he kinda does. It's just he hasn't got the skill level and IQ to match. He is fast, strong and intenselydetermined. If that could be combined with Lebron's skills and IQ... well I guess we can wait a few years and see what happens with Giannis lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just because he wasn’t LeBron James doesn’t mean he wasn’t athletic especially early in his career. Of course athleticism matters in basketball. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course athleticism matters in basketball. I wouldn’t call Kyle Korver or JJ Reddick athletic but I’d take them on my team in a heartbeat because they keep the defense honest. You don’t need athleticism if you’re an elite shooter. That’s what we need to fix these poor offensive sets and pull us out of this rut. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jay Magic 1,248 Report post Posted February 2, 2020 25 minutes ago, TrueMagicFan07 said: Aaron did that in the last game. In the third quarter of that game, Fultz handed him the ball after crossing mid court. There was 15 seconds left on the time clock and Aaron kept the ball, over dribbling and almost dribbled out the clock before tossing up a shot. I posted that he was trying to do too much, and someone gave me a down vote. So, I gave up on posting anything that I observed during a game. AG was not the issue tonight at all.
