TrueMagicFan07 675 Report post Posted January 15, 2023 You never know how the matchups will play out. According to Aaron Gordon's stats (I don't watch their games), he has been playing well lately. Both Gordon and Banchero play PF. I don't know if they will be guarding each other, but I hope Paolo out duels Aaron or simply has a better game. Now, at the center position that's another story. Jokic is taller and bigger than Carter. Jokic can score at a number of positions on the floor and is a former MVP. So, I don't know how the Magic handles him.

All Eyes On Me 1,213 Report post Posted January 15, 2023 Excited for this one! Pretty good barometer game on the road against the best team in the league. Last game of a 2 week road trip at altitude, usually I’d be worried about the guys mailing it in but I don’t expect that from this group. Jokic missed last game, so we’ll see if he’s back.

I go to rotowire.com to copy and paste the lineups. They list the lineups for all teams playing on the current day. I waited until this morning to get the lineups. As you can see from what I posted in the game thread starter, they had JI listed as GTD. I went to their game site just now and they have changed JI's status to "out". I will delete the lineups from rotowire.com that I copied and posted this morning. Thanks for the headsup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
harryfromphilly 75 Report post Posted January 15, 2023 no, its totally ok i just thought i missed something I watched Issac play with lakeland last night, and he looked very healthy, but was surprised that they would fly him to play in a back to back. Funny story though, the lakeland team is called the Swans. It says so on the jerseys and the Arena announcers kept calling them the swans but the tv announcers kept calling them the magic... think they are fantasizing that they made the big time, lol or maybe auditioning for a job!

TrueMagicFan07 675 Report post Posted January 16, 2023 Why did the coach take Franz out and subbed with Suggs? The Magic have stopped attacking the basket and started chucking threes and missing. Franz helped in attacking the basket and getting the Nuggets off guard. Now, the Nuggets are sinking back under the basket waiting for the Magic to launch 3's and missing.

harryfromphilly 75 Report post Posted January 16, 2023 you are so right did you just see that? not taking care of the ball tonight and chucking too many 3's but that would have been an amazing play at the end of the first lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
