Watching the @spurs collapse made me feel like I was watching my @OrlandoMagic again hoisting 3’s like crazy instead of attacking, like the Knicks did. BTW the have a guy with a 9’8” standing reach… crazy inexcusable not to have him rim running ALL of the time…. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@Giants everything happens for a reason! Gunner goes down and there is a perfect opportunity for “Turbo” Miller to show how much of a weapon he could be just like the silly Cowboys have Kavontae Turpin… Turbo Miller is even faster! #JustTryIt
@OrlandoMagic PLEASE GET TOM THIBS!!! This team needs to be toughened up! They complain too much about the refs! Also, please bring in the best shooting coaches to get the guys to put up 5,000 shots per day (minimum based on how they shot last year).
New York Giants defensive tackle Bobby Jamison-Travis has been identified as a potential "instant impact" rookie.

@OrlandoMagic Ty Maxey killing the Celtics with the ATTACK! If @jalensuggs attacks with his floater, there is no team that will be able to take the Orlando Magic out! Now is the time! Just like that dunk that he let off in Detroit in game 1! DAWG!
@OrlandoMagic I guess I’ve had a problem with this TIMID style for quite a while now. The Magic prove over and over that the team is not good at shooting the ball like most other teams in the league.
3’s are “LAZY BALL”… it bails the defense out (no pressure to guard!) . If you’re a 3 point sniper… (like Bane) and you don’t see them go in TAKE IT TO THE DEFENSE’S FACE! If they pack the paint, you will have mid-ranges all night long!
Well…. @OrlandoMagic we see what happens when you do the exact opposite of attacking. I can still see T-Mac in my head waiving to the crowd that we are up 3-1 (yes, I’ve been a Magic fan since the team started). I just hope these youngsters don’t repeat that same history.😳
If the @OrlandoMagic EVER figure out that they have length advantage and that the league does NOT have rim protectors like it used to, they will get their 1st championship. All these 3’s are not it (limit should be 10pgm). Attack is the ONLY answer!
@philiprr_OMD I guarantee a championship if AGGRESSIVE ATTACKING Jalen Suggs shows up for the rest of the playoffs. When he and AB are settling for trying to make 3’s, they take the stress off the defense…why don’t you media types ask them why they don’t take the floater?
Yes to all of this... but that sequence defines why the #Magic are winning this series. They are winning all the 50/50 battles and just outworking the #Pistons.
@philiprr_OMD@OrlandoMagic Thank you…. This aged very well. We appreciate you guys coming with it tonight. This is how everyone thought they would look when they picked a dark horse for the title.
I stand by this 100% @OrlandoMagic! If our young guys can break the on/off switch on attack and push the pace constantly, unrelenting, and play solid sticky defense, they will be unstoppable in ANY series and win their first title… but it starts with the mindset. DAWG mindset!

The #Magic close their regular season tonight against the #Celtics. What we are watching:
💯 Desmond Bane's stellar season
🏀 Hooray offense!

I only see the issues with one main person and it happens to be the so called star of the team…. But he struggled tonight and Franz stepped it up in his place. The ball is not sticking nearly as bad.
The front office has sold injuries as the main reason for this season's struggles. But it has been clear for a long time that the issues run much deeper. And a coaching change is only the start of the reforms needed: https://t.co/Edf2zDC4VH

@NoshJon The defense was poor all game long. The team has quit at the first sign of trouble several times this year. It's time to move on from the coach. But they aren't playing well at all.
We have invested in a “defensive” team… their offense is good when the ball and players are moving fast…. The problem is we don’t have a lot of “spacing” guys, like an AB and Franz. I still think our problem is settling for too many 3’s with 6’8” plus sized players.
@philiprr_OMD@NoshJon This season calls for house cleaning. This front office group isn’t serious about winning and that may be coming from ownership. You can’t have a GM and coach that are so far from the same page. GM doesn’t supply shooters and coach has offense that stands around the 3 point line
I don’t know what they did to that NAW kid but he is on that Jalen Suggs mojo energy when playing the Magic only. He is hyped (like he wants the @OrlandoMagic Magic to trade for him). Not putting up 40 in any other games…¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@aclarkefl@NoshJon The front office needs to stop acting like a rebuilding organization. Time to be ruthless and stop investing in long-term projects. They need players who can help them win now.
