The squad needs to come out and make sure of it for a strong 48 minutes from game 1 and on. Ready for playoffs!
Here’s more from [the ESPN post](https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/39914912/nba-playoffs-2024-all-20-teams-vying-championship):
The Cavs will take down the Magic in six games or fewer. The Magic had an excellent season behind tough defense and relying on Paolo Banchero to provide the offense. In the playoffs, though, the Cavaliers have more scoring from the perimeter in addition to their defensive big men. I think Mitchell will prove healthy enough to play at his All-Star level, and he and Garland will be too much for the Magic to overcome.
For Orlando – What to watch in the first round:
Banchero’s offensive possessions against Evan Mobley will be fascinating to watch and could go a long way in deciding who wins the series. Banchero rapidly developed this season as a scorer and passer and proved he has the potential to become an offensive superstar. He’ll need to be great for Orlando to avoid scoring lulls. Mobley, meanwhile, appears to be on his way to Defensive Player of the Year contention in the coming seasons.
Orlando prediction: Win or lose in the first round, Banchero will be a household name by the end of the Magic’s postseason behind multiple 30-point efforts.
