@SIChrisMannix truly terrible job on the Open Floor podcast today. It really sounded like you resorted to just trying to steamroll @Rachel__Nichols when she was giving you actual facts about how much more SGA is on the floor, because it didn’t match your feelings.
I just want to point out....
The amount of money the United States has spent on war in the last 67 days, is roughly the same cost that Bernie Sanders proposed for universal college. So the real question is never can we afford it, it's what we choose to prioritize.
So.. I just went back and looked at Jamal’s timeouts..
62-45 with 9:17 left in the 3rd quarter he called a timeout.
He did not call another timeout until 7:02 in the 4th quarter.. We were losing 73-72 at that time..
His next one was with 3:08 left and we were losing 88-75
Third worst loss in Magic history, the other two were in the finals. A disaster that is stunning to anyone who didn't watch this team in the regular season. If you did watch them in the regular season, you knew they were capable of any type of embarrassment. They always are.
New on @RookieWire: Franz Wagner said he is hopeful to play in Game 5 after suffering a calf injury in the Magic's win over the Pistons on Monday:

When I asked post-game, #Magic guard Desmond Bane said he was just cramping late against Detroit. Bane said he could’ve returned to the game if needed.
“I was tired,” Bane said. “But I’m fine.”
Paolo “Why is our spacing so bad”
Franz “I need the ball in better spots”
Wendell “I can’t keep grabbing offensive rebounds”
Bane “I just hit my 6th three in a row”
Jalen Suggs sideplot:
#Magic guard Jalen Suggs had a message for Orlando fans Monday:
“… I know it’s been frustrating, I know it’s been a tough year — all y'all, we truly need you guys down the stretch ... I promise we’re working. None of us in here have given up (or) waved any white flag…”

I have about 20 Magic jerseys and I never, ever wear them. Even when I go to a game I wear something else. Obviously knowing that there is no way I'll buy anoth---
I just bought a Desmond Bane jersey. Oops. Blue new away jersey. I feel great about it.
