This is something I'm thankful for - we're at full strength going into the playoffs. I hear Mitchell has missed 15 of the last 21 games as well with knee ailments. I'm hopeful we can take one of the first 2 games in Cleveland. We're very good at home this season.

Karaban is leaning towards coming back.

ORLANDO MAGIC MAKES THE 2023-2024 PLAYOFFS! CELEBRATE!

Actually I think the obvious is Monk. He’s great off the ball and really underrated as an occasional ball handler/playmaker.. He can run some pick and roll. Again. We are definitely not looking for a ball dominant player. We are trying to be somewhat unique in building a team with long playmakers that create big problems for opponents. -

Happy to see the Heat and Warriors going fishing, wish LeBron was joining them. I'm hoping someone knocks Boston and Denver out and someone new can win it all. Why not us? -

We need either a starting PG or SG that can create their own shot, buy into our defensive scheme, and share ball handling with Suggs. I have to wonder how much better Gary Harris would be if we actually ran plays for him? -
we should use that 2nd round pick. Okeke time is up, maybe Bitadze if he’s too expensive.. I see some top available players available. People forget about Djurisic! Imo he’s more talented than Topic, who is projected Top 5 pick. He could fall. Karaban would be a nice replacement for Okeke Trevon Brazile also nice hybrid PF/C Ivisic could fall, absolutely would take him as Bitadze replacement Pacome Dadiet is a great and underrated player. Absolutely a great replacement for Okeke. other possible players that could be 2nd round players. Chomche, Ajay Mitchell, Almansa, Scheierman, Bona, Reeves, Spencer, Kolek and many many more.. This draft is low on superstars and franchise players, but imo is loaded on good role players or potentially elite role players.. I like our draft position (bad draft to own a top 10 pick), especially with the success we had this season.

I’ve seen a video on youtube, that explained the problem with Trae/ Dejaunte and the Hawks… They are both only effective players with the ball in their hands. And both are unwilling to share. They play a „my turn, your turn..” offense when they are both healthy.. So it’s actually not a knock and Trae or Dejaunte, but both don’t work with the way we play in Orlando. We want and will continue to do so, play with Franz and Paolo handling the ball. That’s what we are doing. Part of me wants a PG to handle offensive duties, but that won’t happen imo.. So my focus will shift towards players that are willing to play off ball, and can be effective doing so. Simons is one of those players where i’d hope he’d fit right in there. Another player i’d think would be a great fit is Mikal Bridges. He’s actually a perfect fit for this starting unit. Love Vassell for us as well. But this team will probably continue to grow organically. My opinion is we sign Monk in FA and draft McCain or Da Silva. It’s not a splashy way, but it’s based on fit, i guess -

My big-NO to Trae was basically related to chemestry problems and fit in our team (even before his return to action), but you added the financial part that is always important. Please stay away. -
Doubt 2nd round pick will be kept because of the young guns "we have" to continue to develop: AB, Jett and this year 1st rounder. The second 1st round pick we have in 2026 is a product of trading a bunch of 2nd round picks....so this year's could easily be traded for a better asset in the future. " The Orlando Magic have acquired the unprotected swap rights to a 2026 first round draft pick from Phoenix or Washington in exchange for three future second round draft picks – the 2024 pick from Denver, the 2026 least-favorable pick between Orlando, Milwaukee or Detroit (via the L.A. Clippers) and 2028 pick" "During the next seven NBA drafts (2024-30), Orlando has eight first round picks and 12 second round picks."

I agree with you 100%. He is definitely not the right guy for Orlando. -

Yeah, Hawks probably would’ve been better off if he didn’t come back this year. 0-4 and got spanked in every game. Chemistry on that team is awful and they need to make a move and Trae needs a change of scenery, but that contract is brutal. It will lower what Atlanta is able to get back for him. My opinion is I think Trae is too risky to the locker room to take a chance on, we don’t need another guy thinking he’s Batman, we need another Robin that’ll happily play off of Franz and Paolo, Trae isn’t that guy. -

138 million over the next 3 years. That’s what Trae Young is owed. I wouldn’t touch that contract even with a pick or two included. -

Here's some hype stat I just saw posted elsewhere (haven't confirmed it myself hoping it's legit): Out of 192 available minutes against the Cavs this season, Isaac only played 32 of them. During which we were +25. -
so it’s Miami vs Bulls. Butler is down, but it won’t matter. The coaching in Miami is far superior. The Heat team is scrappy and will advance
-
With Jimmy Butler injured Miami might actually lose the 8/9 game.
-
Okay, will do. Thanks.
-
lol truth. I did enjoy watching them blow it and lose while explaining to my toddler son that we hate everything about Miami in this house.. hahaha
-
Let’s do a per game game thread to start. If game 2 gets here and there’s not another specific game thread for it we can pivot and just make it the round 1 thread

Turn in your magic badge. Thou shall not root for the heat under any circumstances. 1st law. Lololol

You just made me get a little gassy. Please please let Gary find a new team to burden.
