That was brutal. Especially at home.
Kill me slowly so I can savor my death
Pretty good mix of bad TOs, bad defense and great shooting from Cavs. Your a sicko if you watched this game past the 2nd quarter.
12 losses in last 19 games now, brutal
Mose is not the guy for this team as HC I have felt that way since last year seeing how he runs this team in-game wise on Offense
Merrill almost had as many 3s as our team did lol
Mose is not the guy. I’m sorry. I love him as a player coach, but his rotations have been awful, and how he managed everyone coming back has been awful. And for someone who preaches about defense, we are fucking awful at 3pt defense and this league lives and dies by the 3. Fuck a trade, we need a new coach next year.
Have to think a legitimate coach would not allow players to simply give up on back to backs. It’s simply looked at as a scheduled loss and we should be fighting tooth and nail for every win. We aren’t good enough to mail it in like we do on back to backs.
Hopefully we’re active at the trade deadline. This team is starving for some perimeter creation and shooting.
Doesn’t even need to be a superstar I’m just tired of seeing us struggle to reach 100 points.
Team called it quits before the tip. Soft
The Bulls are about to pass us up for the last playoff spot.
We need to do something soon before it’s too late. The front office can’t keep sitting around.
The people got free chicken. That’s the only positive from tonight.
Where’s our defensive identity gone..? There also seems to be some difficulties with integrating players into the rotation after injuries, because team chemistry is not as fluid…
In saying that, I am still confident we have a good team, building something special here…
I wonder if it’s hard to convince the guys these games are important when we’re arbitrarily holding out key players?
Feel like bots with the “Mose is not the guy” posts lol. It’s like fucking clockwork after every loss.
“The rotations are ass” after everybody wanted WCJ starting and Black starting (or Fultz) and got both the last two games.
“The defense is bad, where’s it gone?” After posting one of the best defensive performances in years last night.
What would be sacking Mose for, exactly? Not teaching a bunch of non-shooters to shoot or injury prone players to actually be able to play back to backs? Punishing him alone for losing games and not our front office or putting it on player accountability?
Magic fans just never learn and want change for the sake of change.
Mose doesn’t teach the guys the basics. Rebound. Take care of the ball.
Get this guy out of here!
It’s almost like this team is exactly the same team it’s been for the past 15 years.
Nothing but athleticism. Just long boys. Perimeter players are too big and not skilled enough. And our bigs are too small to be bigs yet not quick enough to be on the perimeter. It’s the same thing over and over again. We need to stop going after body types and go after skills. Especially when it’s been proven to not only have no success here but also anywhere else in the league.
Cavs literally could not miss from 3
Enough internet for today.
Jk. I get the b2b fatigue, but I’d be actin up if they don’t properly show up for the Memphis game.
Though game. Cavs are red hot on fire right now and it doesn’t help we were slow footed on defense, made them even stronger.
Some terrible defensive rotations and well, the TO spoke for themselves.
Team is still not ready for b2b, even if it’s way better than last year.
Just forget this game, up to the next! Go magic!
“We’re a good team when we’re healthy” .. ok we have a healthy team, so what’s the excuse now? They are ready and available to play.
We’ve dropped 6 of our last 8 games. This b2b injury maintenance thing is not going to work in the long run. JI played 12 minutes last night. TWELVE. What are we really doing here? We don’t even play again until Friday. Completely unserious lol.
Last thing – I’m so tired of hearing “by committee” and that next man up bullshit. Hold these guys accountable or something, Mosely
I know we’re unlikely to make a big splash before the deadline but surely we at least mix it up a bit. Otherwise we’re gonna be a pretty easy first round out.
I am chill. My tone probably came off as mad but I’m not. I just want to understand why these guys are on the bench when they are clearly healthy & available to play. That’s really all. What are we saving them for?
