Imagine if you will, the same core, but no Fultz, Cole, or Jingles, and replacing them with a PG that can shoot 3s, get to the rim, and can D up the likes of Mitchel and Garland. That's how close we are to being there! I'm hoping that AB can quickly grow into being that guy!

Absolutely. This will also be the final stamp that “we’ve arrived”

We are already on the map. Talking heads are talking about the Magic.

I suppose this team can be called the cinderfella team of the nba. 
Get it? (Cinderfella instead of Cinderella)

He is that guy... Cole ain't a issue either

Remember i said Cole will help us win a series... Franz backs me up

What an awesome game. Kind of the opposite of what happened last game where it was close in the end and we had a chance to take control but didn’t. Hoping we can take some mo into Cleveland and pull it out so the national media gets more of a chance to talk about the Magic

Hopefully game 7 is his breakout game and he gets us 20 points. We really missed him the first 5 games.

I feel like we won the series tonight and Sunday is just the icing! I would love to blow them out in Cleveland!

How he played tonight is all we really need from him essentially.. but he is capable of winning a game on his own.

But yh.. Sunday.. 20+ from  him and a win would be icing on the cake

Looks like Dallas is on their way to eliminating the Clippers. That means that our series is the only one to go 7 games. And yet we get the least respect. Here's a prime example. When our game was over on ESPN they had to jump right to the Clippers/Mavs game. That's understandable. However, during the halftime show they showed some clips of the first half of the Mavs game and get this...a bunch of clips of Caitlin Clark playing in a preseason game. Not one peep about the Magic game. Don't get me wrong. I think it's newsworthy for Clark making her WNBA debut, but at least show a few seconds of the Magic. My apologies for piling on most networks not giving the Magic any respect. I hope they are using it as fuel, the same way I hope they are using the Cavs tanking for this first round matchup as fuel.

And I think that is what will happen. I sense a rather comfortable margin of victory. No way Mitchell goes for 50 again. I think the real key will be holding down their 3-point shooting again. Somehow I see us grabbing an early substantial lead which will quiet their crowd and put more pressure on them.
