All Eyes On Me 1,196 Report post Posted January 22, 2023 Moe Wagner only getting 8 minutes. Excited for the trade deadline. We need to trim some fat off this roster and focus on quality instead of quantity in our rotation 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Both to keep our current players engaged and to attract free agents/ trades? I'm saying We (The Magic and their coaching staff) as in they are choosing their rotations and their development over winning. I clearly would like to see us chase winning more!

All Eyes On Me 1,196 Report post Posted January 22, 2023 Also, the NBA screwed us hard on the schedule in this one. 5 days off, just to be hit with a home-road back to back, which is as much of a guaranteed schedule loss as you can get. Why wouldn’t they make the Pels game Wednesday or Thursday?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CTMagicUK 1,476 Report post Posted January 22, 2023 To be honest I'm not really surprised we lost this one. Disappointed it was a blow out though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luke_FfS 247 Report post Posted January 22, 2023 We aren't really helping ourselves with those constant slow starts. Starters played less than normal minutes yesterday, so the back to back hasn't to be that important. After a lot of games in which Franz was the man, in that one he had one of the worst +/-. Rotations... again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albert Lergier 99 Report post Posted January 22, 2023 WHAT A WHIPPING LAST MY FRIENDS !!!!! Not expecting it and not good considering that our next game has been "circled" by the Celtics after we defeated them on back-to-back games on Dec 16 and 18. Celtics currently in a 9 game winning streak....9 and 1 tomorrow, let's do it !!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he never develops a consistent jumper I can see his career trajectory in the Marcus Smart type of mold. Won’t ever be a leading scorer for your team but is a dog on defense and does the little things to make the winning plays and I’d be ok with that. However if he can stay healthy and develop a consistent jumper or get to the foul line more frequently I can see him take his game to the next level. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
