harley 61 Report post Posted February 7, 2020 For rest of year I’d prefer we started Frazier, Iwundu or even BJ Johnson andVic law whilst giving Bamba more minutes. Let Fultz take over. I’d start with benching Ross for a few games and let him know he can’t just keep jacking up transition 3s and off balance 3s. Man I’m so angry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spaceman 58 Report post Posted February 7, 2020 After that huge deadline trade we made for what's his name I was so disgusted I didn't even think of watching this game. Now I'm very happy I didn't. See you in the lottery. Oh and Fournier is going to opt-in. I hate this team right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If we went 11 and 19 we would still make the playoffs if Chicago finishes how they're projected in some of the probability models Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The problem is that the East blows. It's historically bad. I look at the standings and I struggle to see anyone who can climb to #8 Capela isn't healthy so Atlanta won't be much better the rest of the season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They would need to win 20-25 of their remaining 30 games just to have a shot of scraping the 8th seed. 8th seed will be between 34-38 wins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because they were the only team below us that acted as a buyer and not a seller. Filled some holes, getting Capela and Dedmon, but yeah.. won't be nearly enough Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Man I’m so angry Ross has struggled mightily, but we simply have to understand he’s doing the role the coaching staff is telling him to do, and his job is significantly more difficult without DJ. He comes in with the second unit and he’s the only player the other team has to defend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They’re already 2-0 against us, and that was before they made all their improvements, and one of those was even without Trae playing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Just a regular Magic fan 38 Report post Posted February 7, 2020 6 hours ago, fan for too long 2 said: Payton has had Too many injuries, he is finally healthy. Nice game EP you outplayed Markelle, congrats. But hopefully Markelle has just hit a wall, this is the most he’s played in 3 years. He needs more of a scorers attitude, remember your college days Kelle. Not taking anything away from EP, but our entire effort was sloppy. It looks to me like Markelle is yielding to our vets out of respect, but IMO, he needs to take control of this team and be the man. The others, like Fournier, need to accept their role.
