Emergency topic!

Interesting start for the magic 

Bamba and Houstan first men off the bench

With Fultz being our only true PG and his injury history, we need to trade some combination of Bamba, JI, and picks to get the best PG we can get. Or we could just dump Mo for a 2nd and sign one of these guys;

• D.J. Augustin (35)
• Eric Bledsoe (33)
• Trey Burke (30)
• Jared Butler (22)
• Devin Cannady (26)
• Michael Carter-Williams (31)
• Chris Chiozza (27)
• Darren Collison (35)
• Sharife Cooper (21)
• Devon Dotson (23)
• Kris Dunn (28)
• Marcus Garrett (24)
• Brandon Goodwin (27)
• Frank Jackson (24)
• Brandon Knight (31)
• Saben Lee (23)
• Mac McClung (23)
• Elfrid Payton (28)
• Rajon Rondo (36)
• Zavier Simpson (25)
• Javonte Smart (23)
• Keifer Sykes (29)
• Tyrell Terry (22)
• Isaiah Thomas (33)
• Kemba Walker (32)
• Brad Wanamaker (33)
• Brandon Williams (23)

1/9 3PT 1st quarter (most of them open)

9/21 from the field

Good news is we only trail by 6

We need some 3 point shooting. My goodness this team’s shooting is terrible. 

also, Franz needs to be the offense initiator more. He does a great job of driving and getting guys open look consistent. Ball movement is better with him.

IMO Bol has much better hands than Bamba.

[TreyMachine]

Cole is looking to shoot in his hometown every time he touches the ball. Every. Time. I would be maddened if I was his teammate.

And Bol Bol is playing out of his mind right now.

4-20 from the arc …pretty self explanatory in regards to our continued poor shooting 

Edit: meanwhile where is Fultz and Issac ?

[Phil4Real]

Bol Bol is running naked around the court

Where is our vaunted defense?  We gave up 65 in the first half.  

[JJZFL]

We have 7 total assists after first half.  Knicks have 14.

We won't have a defense until players gel and possibly a roster change. Ross and Cole getting major minutes along with Wagner and Banchero probably being a year away from developing into good defenders if they have it in them. Chuma is simply not above average at anything if he can't shoot. He has below average size, length and athleticism. Bamba still doesn't have the feel for the game, same with RJ. If every single Magic player was healthy only JI,Suggs,Futlz,WCJ and Harris project as above average defenders. Only one of them is playing.

Just have to keep Paolo in the rookie of the year race and keep developing Wagner,Cole,Bol and WCJ until the other guys get back.

Guys are getting better offensively, if they start shooting 3's look out. Bol is so much fun, Paolo getting to line like a star. Cole is crafty.
