The Magic also have a lot of cap space, so expect the Magic to also sign a couple of experienced veterans to go along side veteran 3-D player Terrance Ross and SG Gary Harris. To quote a legend, “The Orlando Magic will win the NBA championship.” Quote via @ScooterMagruder
Along with the 5th and 8th pick in this draft and New Head Coach Jamahl Mosley who is a player first coach, the Magic have amazing young talent. This is why I believe that the Magic are going to sneak into the playoffs. Picture via @OrlandoMagic
With rumors of a trade on the rise, the question to be asked is will Ben Simmons run point guard if he were to be traded. No matter where he ends up, the Sixers are asking for “an all-star caliber player” in return. Quote/Report via @ShamsCharania
Even though he has been woeful on offense, his defense abilities have been elite. A switch to Power Forward to make him sort of a Draymond Green type player would elevate his game 10 fold. Picture via @usabasketball
Herro may have better stats, however this is because he is getting more touches. If either of the guys above got Herro’s touches, they would be averaging more. However, for some reason the Heat are in love with “the next Kobe Bryant.” Quote from various members of Heat Twitter.
Here are Goran Dragic stats, basically a Tyler Herro with seasoned NBA experience. The fact that Herro got more minutes in the Finals and even started over Dragic for games was absurd in my opinion. Herro is not a bad player, by severely overrated. Via BasketballReference
The best quote in my opinion came from Bobby Portis, would said "I wanna win. I came to Milwaukee to try to impact winning and be the best Bobby Portis I can be." Giannis is the star of the Bucks, so all the other players need to worry about is being the best version of themself.
A THREAD FOR THE 12 HOUR COMM 277 ASSIGNMENT: Giannis Antetokounmpo and The Bucks will win the finals if the role players show up like they did in Game 3.
Khris Middleton is a huge part of the Bucks’ success. He usually takes the most volume of jump shots in a game. Last night he shot 43% from the floor with 15 points in the first half. He usually plays better, so this efficiency should be encouraging for fans. Picture via @NBA
