The Magic Are About To TAKE OVER



The Magic Are About To TAKE OVER

in 2023 the orlino magic finished just 13th in the Eastern Conference where a middle of theack defense and weren’t a team to be feared when checking the schedule however internal improvements and the guidance under coach J Mosley helped shape the team to an NBA playoff birth Panero blossomed in what was his first All-Star season jayen Suggs revived his career by being a Hound on defense and having a career Year from d and their overall size and schemes made them the third best defense in the entire league they did fall in the NBA playoffs in part due to their lack of outside shooting but they’ll have $36 million in cap spaces off season to address that and potentially even more cap space depending on what they do with their players on team options in this video we’ll discuss the rise of their Lineo magic and the jump they can take next season with some help in free agency but before we begin be sure to leave a like on the video as each like makes a massive difference for the channel and be sure to sub to the channel for more content like this one reason to be highly optimistic for the magic next season is their franchise star in Palo banero banero came out of Duke and immediately hit the ground running in his rookie season putting his name in the history books with outstanding stretches of play and winning Rookie of the Year in the process with his rare combination of fluidity blow handling creation ability and ability to dominate in half quarter in transition poo already proved to be the guy for the magic but got even better in 2024 Poo’s game is pretty mesmerizing given his rather throwback style of play he does in fact dominate offensively through his strong drives to the rim where he us his handle control and fluidity and amend 610 250 lb frame to absorb contact and be a Fearless finisher at The Rim but he also opts to utilize his face up game as well displaying great footwork great positioning when backing down defenders in the post and an ability either to get steps closer to the rim for a strong finish or ability to hit fadeaway jumpers on post defenders in transition he’s a terror given how much of a physical specimen he is and he’s improved further as a playmaker given his ability to better read the defense while also using the threat of his offense to maximize the all ball threats obious his teammates at age 21 he’s already shown us much but his biggest Improvement must be his jumper while in improvements poo shot just 34% from three in the regular season and having a better more consistent outside shots will open up the game even more for him but when it mattered most in the playoffs Palo showed that he can knock down those shots shooting 40% from three and also 55% from mid-range he just became one of three players age 21 or younger to drop 25 and five in a playoff debut became the youngest player to record 30 points 10 rebounds and five assists and zero turnovers in a playoff game and scored the most first half points by some 21 or younger in game seven history outside of banero the rest of the younger core greatly improved Jaylen sugs stamped his name as one of the best defensive guards in the league as he made all defensive second team there was a to navigate and fight through screens put pressure on the ball handler and be one of the best hustlers in the league with one of the most deflections in the league additionally shooting career best 39% from three increases offensive utility Bron vogner is a good ball handler and Driver to the rim moves well without the ball as a solid playmaker and finished at 65% at The Rim this past season plus the magic had a great depth and length that made them the fourth best scoring bench in the NBA while also helping the team being great defensively by limiting Second Chance points and turning opponents over however the teams Achilles heel is easily their outside shooting as they were bottom 10 and three-point percentage and had guards in Marco folz and Cole Anthony who either didn’t take three-pointers or struggled with the opportunities given as good as their defense is the magic need better outside shooting so players can’t sag off of them in the playoffs and close off the paints and so that poo and France vogner can have have more space to operate this can obviously occur with internal improvements but with 30 plus million in cap space the magic have several options in free agency for one they can Target Klay Thompson as he’s a player who can greatly improve the teams outside shooting Klay Thompson isn’t the same player he was years ago prior to the major two lower body injuries and did infamously have the 0 And1 game against the Sacramento Kings in the playing tournament however he’s still a phenomenal shooter and tremendous off ball threats who draws attention from defenses shooting 39% from three on nine attempts game and the majority of those threes being catch and shoot attempts Warriors owner Joe lob already stated that he ideally wants to stay out of the luxury tax entirely next season since the dubs have paid around $628 million in luxury tax over the past four years meaning that letting clay go is a real possibility for clay the magic presents him an opportunity to join a younger Squad On The Rise and potentially make more money and the magic could benefit from his veteran presence and Championship pedigree in the grand scheme of things the magic can have more financial flexibility if they opt to decline all their team options and angles and mo vogner Etc meaning they could potentially try to pair clay with another Marquee signing or they can pick a clay alternative in six Man of the Year runner up Malik monk it will be extremely difficult for for the Kings to resign monk given how strapped they are with Fox and sabonis extensions and monk provides the magic with a guard who can create for himself and others and just has importantly knocked down threes he shot 37% on catch and shoe threes last season is good at setting up his teammates with him getting the third most assists off of drives in the entire league by playing Just 26 minutes a game and averaged 23 points seven assists four rebounds on 40% from three in games in which he played 30 or more minutes last season finally the Magic’s plan could be to pursue Paul George who provides much of what the magic could be looking for in free agency PG-13 just came off a season where he played 74 games and averaged 23 points five rebounds and four assists on 47% from the field and 41% from three he’s a great fit for the magic because he’s a self Creator who can operate as a three-level score and is a sensation shooter most of his threes were catch and shoot attempts where he connected on 45% of them and he can play well off of Pao France Etc while being another presence on the wings it will cost the magic a significant chunk of their cap space given that it might take a lot to lure PG out of LA but for a team that’s shown to be competitive and as Dept PG-13 might be the piece to make the magic true contenders regardless of what the magic do they should be a threat in the East next next season their defense should hold up from last year their offense will steadily improve with internal Improvement and with free agenc signings helping their outside shooting and Palo banero could enter his name in elad’s conversations next year watch out for the Orlando Magic with that being said let me know your thoughts under the Orlando Magic and how good they’ll be next season what would you do if you were the GM of the magic who specifically would you talk Target also where do you feel palaban car will Rank by the end of his third season let me know in the comment section down below be sure to leave a like on the video as each like makes a massive difference for the channel be sure to sub to the channel for more content like this hope to see you all in the next one and stay tuned [Music]

The Orlando Magic surprised everyone by making the NBA playoffs and being an elite defense. Moreover, with a lot of cap space, they can target players like Klay Thompson, Malik Monk, or even Paul George. Consequently, Paolo Banchero and the Magic will be a threat out East next season.
