I got one am not ready but I do always love a fan fest

1. We need to make a trade for either a point guard or someone who can create off the dribble and shoot 3’s. The offence is too stagnant and its either franz or paolo who dribble the clock down and shoot contested layups or midrange shots

2. Cole anthony needs to go, I don’t care if he’s a locker room guy

3. Our window is open now, if we don’t make changes to this offence and the players we have. Our superstars are eventually going to want out

4. Im tired of people saying we can’t trade because it’ll ruin our defensive identity. We can play decent defence all game but if that doesn’t translate to offence we’re going to lose every game

We’re not even fully in frame (not a product of my bad cropping)

Jeff Weltman took over in 2017 . I think we’re all tired of hearing the “next season” excuses.

Unless he can pull off a Miracle trade before the trade deadline, I say this be the end of the Weltman era.

He’s pretty much cornered himself at this moment in time by neglecting to address the point guard position along with neglecting to surround our best players with shooters.

The medical staff he’s hired is also very questionable with the way they’ve managed injuries.

His resigning of players that can’t contribute such as Jonathan Isaac and Gary Harris are just baffling as well.

I feel as though he relied too much on a draft picks and did not invest enough time signing players who were already established scorers.

I think he’s played the conservative hand long enough and now we need to start making moves like other franchises to make this team better or risk losing guys like Paolo, who requested a point guard last off season

Duvin is releasing their lastest collab with the Magic next week. They are having a release party next Friday from 4-10 pm est at Great Southern Box Co Food Hall & Bar.

I live on the west coast but am hoping to have a fan pickup my order and ship it out to me. Would obviously pay for shipping but looking for some help from some fans in the area or already planning on going. Thank you!

I understand Paolo and Franz were hurt, but Paolo was FOURTH in all star votes … how does he get snubbed???? and Franz??? he didn’t even miss that many games, and since his return he’s been going OFF

Portland is 5-1 over the last 6.. all against east teams, including Milwaukee… and when they beat us last week, they didn’t have two of their best players.

At this point, given we’re 8 games from NY, 4th place is the highest we can get this year, and very possible fighting for play in.

*edited, I thought I heard the 13 number on the radio but it must have been related to something else #truth

The Orlando Magic have been knocked sideways this season by injuries to Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner, but one big reason they’ve stayed afloat is the play of Bitadze.

Not only has he started 33 games at center for the Magic, but Bitadze has also been their second-most effective player (behind Wagner) — Orlando outscores opponents by 10 points per 100 possessions more when Bitadze is on the floor.

He just doesn't make many mistakes: No moving screens, no pushes in the back on rebounds, no ill-conceived post-ups.

Another place his good decisions show up is in the short roll, as he excels throwing well-timed lobs to other bigs

Bitadze rarely calls his own number, but when he does shoot, he's one of the most efficient players in the league, as evidenced by his 67% 2-point shooting and 126 offensive rating.

On defense, perhaps his best quality is his lateral quickness, which is elite among centers and makes him effective in pick-and-roll defense.

He tends to find the optimal distance from which to defend ball-handlers, limiting blow-bys, lobs and open jumpers — and he uses his size and moves his arms well to limit their vision and deflect passes. Among centers, he’s ninth in deflections per minute (min. 500 minutes)

Playing 25 minutes per game for Orlando is a good way to stay off the radar screen. But despite near-anonymity, he contributes at an elite level. In fact, only three players are averaging 15 rebounds, four assists and three blocks per 100 possessions: Wembanyama, Davis, and Bitadze.

I thought he was having a down year but he's been doing good averaging 18.6 ppg and 41 percent from three. He's known for a high motor and work ethic so I don't think he'd slouch on defense. Idk if he starts tho or is the right point guard for us but a starting line up with sexton, suggs, franz, paolo, and Goga seems pretty nice. Back court could be AB, KCP, TDS, JI, and Wendell.

Glen 'Big Baby' Davis takes out the final square with an incredibly close 'win' over pre-tournament favourite, Chris Duhon.

So there's your final grid – thanks for playing over the past week and a half 🙂

I’ve been noticing PB has been just hogging the ball. So many opp to pass to someone else but insists on keeping it to try and score instead of being a team player. Any one agree ?

From what I have seen this season while he's shooting low percentage his shot looks mechanically nice he seems to have good knowledge of what to do where to go which leads me to the question will he take over as the best shooter on this team through development like really look at how he plays and tell me he won't be crucial to a championship run if make one in the future. The shot is there, the finishing is decent and he can play good defense how do you feel about him as a now/ future asset to this team?

Hi guys,
I'm a new channel so if you open the video and then close it right away you'll wreck my analytics.

if you can't let the video play at least some minutes please don't open the link🙏🏻

As i said in the title i've been working for months on this video, constantly adding more and more stuff No way i'm ever doing anything like this ever again lmao it took way too long

Here is the link if u wanna check it out, mods gave me permission

Obviously feel free to add any comment, hope you enjoy it

Kings reportedly are opening discussions for De’Aaron Fox before the deadline, wondering what yall think about Magic pursuing this trade?

I think it can be accretive to the team as it gives us a playmaker. I’d say package up Cole, Jett and Gary, and maybe throw in a few second round picks as well.

Thoughts?
