It’s sad that we only win comfortably when Cole goes off but god damn is it beautiful when he does!
Cole Anthony doubters in shambles tonight
Thank god Franz played today
Franz is a positive plus minus on the season now, at +17
Franz and Cole were goated tn
Also Mo stealing the jerseys as people are trading 💀
W! That’s a great thing to hear while I’m waiting for roadside to jump my battery. Also, I can’t wait for Isaac to be nba ready.
Dumbass coach left the bench in (+ Franz) to win the game for us 💀💀
Cole sounds like such a good teammate
Cole Anthony is untouchable
Franz Wagner
Best sophomore by far
“Winning is fun.”
*Play the damn song*
Great decisions by coach tonight. Paolo and Dell will be better tomorrow!
Franz Boogie 😍
Bench won us this game. I was bit critical of Mosley keeping the starters in for so long in the 3rd but he did well finishing the game off with the bench. It can be easy to put back WCJ/Fultz/Banchero late in the game and hope for the best. Happy he kept who deserved to be in the game. The energy Cole, Mo, Bol and Suggs brought won us this game.
everyone say thank you to chicago for allowing us to get franz wagner!
Franz legit looks like a top 20 player in the NBA. Guy quite literally is a winning player.
Moe on the otherhand imo is such a liability. I dont get why he was allowed to stay in that long, guy was getting cooked inside, was yelling at teammates for his mistakes, and was missing shots. He did hit one great and 1, and added great pressure as a playmaker but I honestly think he was the weak link that could have sold. Bol, Cole, and Franz all went off which stopped Moe selling.
Mo Bamba needs more minutes its getting ridiculous. Mo is better than most of these guys and fits the SL way better. Moe is coasting off his brothers name. Bol has been terrible every game until these last 2 (which were really promising on both ends from Bol). Maybe BOl figured it out, or the team is getting better at offsetting his weaknesses, nonetheless I have been really impressed with Bol recently.
If players are playing like trash people will observe it and say so. Get over it.
No apology threads needed. Good W. A lot of guys stepped up tonight
Thank god for Franz and the bench, they sealed it for us today. I was absolutely not impressed by WCJ, I hope he catches a hot streak soon.
Also Suggs defense looked great in the first half, he was on it.
How about that Bol dunk 🥶🥶🥶
Great game. They have to focus on lowering their turn overs. There was a shit ton in the last two quarters.
The guys played great tonight, but can we give a hand to coaching tonight? Mose left in dudes that were hot and didn’t just go with rotations. Love to see it.
Mose best coached game? Held players accountable and let the best lineup bring us to a much needed victory. Great game!
I just ate my shorts lol
Mos really went 12 deep tonight, and some starters were able to relax the whole 4th on a front end of a back to back. There seems to be a sweet spot when the Magic get 5 or more players in double figures a win is usually in our favor; and Franz makes 30 look like Light Work
Forgot the basketball season was going after that hibernation the NBA scheduled the team
Dunno how to feel about us benching Paolo the whole 4th
The fact we’re not freaking out more about Franz’ performance says so much. A casual 30/6/9 on 82%TS and 5 threes in a win.. He’s so good x4
Basically Cole Anthony was hot. When he’s hot, we ride him, when he’s cold, he buries us. We have to be able to win when he’s cold too, that’s something that needs to develop over time.
Last year I thought Franz would cap out as a 20-22ppg scorer. Now, I am almost 100% positive he will become a 25+ppg guy. He is just getting so comfortable out there and scoring at a very efficient rate.
From Denver, ii like seeing that Bol Bol is developing well now. He made some comments recently about he regretted not giving an effort in Denver the way he has in Orlando, like he rethought his approach to his job after being traded.
It was clear that he was talented. I think the trade worked for both teams. But I’m glad to see he wasn’t all a mirage with him.
