Bad prediction.  Unexpectedly good start.  Who knew we were so good from 3?  Good ball movement also.  Very pleasant surprise so far.  

Yes, all of this and only up by 13. This should be at least a 23-point lead. And Doc Rivers loves beating the Magic. Somehow and someway he always wins. He usually gets what he wants against us. Eventually it will still be a loss in the end. It was a nice little start though. Some positivity, I guess.

Not reasonable to expect a 23 point lead after one quarter.  The team looks aggressive tonight and is playing with confidence.  If we don’t get bogged down with iso play, and keep moving the ball, I think we have a decent shot at this one.

I see Mr. Pessimistic from a few years ago has returned!

In the end we all know that the inevitable will take place. The Bucks are just toying with us. Doc is coaching this game like its game 7 of the ECF's. However, it was a nice little start. That is kind of a positive thing, I guess.

I smell ULTRA! What a great commercial!

You can change your name but not your spots. Lololol

We outscored their bench 20-8 in the first half. That's why it is a 13point halftime lead. Can this continue in the second half?

Hey, I'm being positive! I said it was a nice little start. Lol. I like the ball movement and the spacing. The defense was impressive. Everything looks great. The focus and intensity are a little better. However, with all of this being said I still see the Bucks putting the hammer down and winning this game. We will take too many 3's in the second half and it will be costly.

MagicOne, after the losing streak we as Magic fans have witnessed, every game we sit on the edge of our seats hoping for the best--to win. But every game you constantly post worst-case scenarios about our team and how the Magic will lose, and that is no fun. I know I can block you, but when another contributor replies to your posts, I want to read their opinions or rebuttals.

In my opinion you need to stop with so many "worst-case scenarios"
