The Pelicans' arena is almost empty.

Suggs is playing tonight.

Magic out to a slight lead, and looking pretty good tonight so far. WCJ with the white glasses/goggles, and Cole looks like half his face is covered between the bandages and the headband to help hold them in place! Off to a pretty good start.

I don't like that they have been having Franz stand in the corner. That is not the way he put up numbers at the beginning of the season. He was mobile and shot the ball from different places on the court.

It's starting to move a little better right now. Hopefully they keep moving/attacking the paint.

Yeah, that was something that was lacking in previous/most games. I would say to myself that they need to mix it up.

This group on the floor for the Magic right now seem to be discombobulated.

Good first quarter. Hope it’s not close at the end.  Can’t stand watching Magic revert to one on one hero ball and lose again.

Time to get Bamba out and put either Mo Wagner or Robin Lopez in. Bamba's defense is just not good. Okeke in - that works for me!

Magic manage to hold on for the win, with the bench delivering 50 points for the night, and playing most of the 4th quarter to close it out!

Mo Bamba is so soft on D, RJ Hampton is not a smart player and Cole Anthony is a narcissist. I  could easily move on from all of them. Also the Magic should really try to resign Gary Harris.
