    Either Stone really just does draft absolute trash every time, or he hires the worst coaches to develop players in history. It should be illegal to look this ****ing **** when you had that many picks in the last 4 years.

    magic aren't doing anything special imo.

    the Rox aren't getting the 50/50 balls, getting the bad end of the whistle (even though its pretty even), and can't make anything - just going to assume it has something to do with being a back-to-back (even though it was only 3 qt last night)

    FINALLY, Reed gets a shot in the corner! Look at that, he made it. Can't believe we're so inept at using a lethal weapon like Sheppard.

    Well he needs to be out the game like when we exposed Enes Kanter in that one playoff series back in the day.

    His flaws show when he's playing the primary ball handler position which he's not meant to play but has to because FVV was the only true point guard on the team. If we had a competent point guard to assume that responsibility Amen will thrive in the wing position like he did last year.

    Ime is just so dumb. Obvious our no shooting lineup doesn’t work. And of course he just keep putting more non offense in the court. We aren’t losing cuz of defense. We can’t freaking score… can we for the love of god just play the the offense lineup together

    JO, Reed and holiday should be playing more..

    I think Holiday and Reed should be playing together off the bench.

    the defense is not good enough to sacrifice offense.

    I’m back on the idea Ime would rather lose than have to depend on Reed to win.

    If tari was 5’10” he’d be an ugly virgin rotting on incel forums. But because he’s 6’11” he’d gets to play professional basketbal
