That was unbelievably stupid from Paolo at the end wooowwwww
Paolo’s 5 TO’s were killer
Ass refs and ass shot by Paolo
gg
How was that not a foul?
How was that not a foul
Franz what the actual fuck was that
That was a foul wasn’t it? Really looked like it.
Paolo with a lot of fuck ups late in the game, but hey, competitive game and a high draft pick 🤷🏻♂️
Play in is out of the picture anyway
Draw that up for Gary or Franz. Cmon Mosely.
maybe the most one-sided officiating i’ve seen down the stretch of a magic game this season
franz literally got clotheslined and they just played on
Yeah did not like this game from Paolo at all. Him and Franz really kinda fumbled this one in the fourth with some really questionable decisions. I’m not concerned dumb young player mistakes, but still dumb shit
Pretty good game. Fultz is absolutely the future PG of this team. This game pretty much locks us into having the 5th best lottery odds and as much we all wanted the play in, this is probably the scenario the FO imagined and the scenario that’s best long-term
Refball amount of fouls called for them and non calls on our end was the difference in a 3 point game arguably fouled at the ending shot. Is what it is play-in was dead anyway
I gotta look at that last shot by Paolo again but I’m pretty positive it was a foul
heartbreak builds character gentlemen. they will remember these losses and show no mercy to opposing teams next year.
Well played, a few dumb faults costs the game but overall another huge step forward.
Refs fuck us again with biased calls, if the front office isn’t tanking than the NBA is making sure they do it for us.
At least we kept it competitive against a playoff team, our future is bright. It’s past my bedtime so goodnight.
Is the play-In still on the menu?
🙁
We can complain all we want but we had two huge possessions late in the game that could have given us the lead and we blew it both times. Both forced passes where we could’ve moved the ball a bit more.
Refs sold as usual but we had our chances. Markelle 💕
One more dip of our toes into the lottery and we seriously go for the playoffs next year
Markelle Fultz — 25/7/9
Keeps getting better and better
Thats a game where we went bucket for bucket for 45 out of 48 minutes. Happens all the time in the NBA. Refs were alright. Had we made a few more open shots that game, we are definitely in a position to win We had that lag in the third, but came back in the fourth. That was a great sign of what’s to come. Hats off to the Suns, and proud to see TRoss doing his thing in phoenix and getting quality minutes.
Also, LOL at markelle untying TRoss’ shoes
Keep your chin up Magic faithful. Proud showing. Our boys love to compete. Heartbreaking, but a great loss to have watched. Onwards!
Too many dumb plays by our young players tonight
Plus this ref group hates Franz and Kelle
Played Booker great yet couldn’t contain Payne. We could really use a forward who can guard the perimeter maybe even one that’s completely healed. But that’s a fantasy 🙁
There were a ton of bad calls tonight, including the no call on the game winner. However, Franz has to stop flopping and bitching so much. He will not get a call, then he is obsessively bitching at the refs through out the next 3 possessions. When you add this to his constant head snapping and flopping I think he is developing a rep where refs don’t like him.
I saw them live a couple of weeks ago and the Wagner bros were almost constantly complaining to the refs. It’s a bad look.
Franz should’ve dominated that suns bench unit
Stop bitching about the refs, we suck and our coach is not great
If the 5th worst record isn’t locked up at this point, it will be by the end of this road trip.
Probably for the best. This team still has flaws. A good shot at Wemby/Scoot is worth the Ls.
So who’s the best 3 point shooter in the draft???
not suggs and his 3 missed free throws
Blaming the refs is a big cop out. How many times we gonna say “refs!!!l this season. We know the problem
