    Rather see Reed shoot a deep three than Amen shooting a three

    This is just ugly and Sengun and Amen haven't been good enough overall so far. The Rox haven't matched the Magic's intensity.

    Fast breaks. If the other team has decent transitions defense it just turns into a rock fight. We still can't generate anything half court.

    Rockets go into last 2 min offense at minute 48. It don't always work

    Also their defense is putrid now - nobody can stop dribble penetration

    Orlando is just as long as we are with Bane and Black at 6'6" and 6'7". Can't bully ball them. Amen and Okogie will need to step up if we do not want to lose at home.

    The only starter that has played well this game is KD, everyone else has been having a bad game.

    Absolutely brutal. Hard to win when your starting backcourt has 2 points at halftime.

    We look like ass. This is also Magic's best played game of the season. Not a great combo.
