    Let's look at the positive. The Bench has already scored twice as many points as they did in the Toronto game.

    simons just laid out a red carpet to wagner.

    lucky jusuf was there at the rim.

    that kinda defense by Ant needs a benching.

    GP2 used to getting those Golden State calls where they got to mug anyone they wanted last season and all of the national broadcast announcers just called it aggressive defense.

    It cracks me up when Hurd refers to the Blazer defense when the Magic got a WIDE OPEN shot, but just happened to miss it.

    Good fucking grief. It's nice that the Magic suck because any good team would have already run us out of the building.

    Hart should be starting every possession.

    Injuries aside, this is a horrible team. Take away the injuries, and they're mediocre.

    If we're not going to post up skinny ass teams like this with Nurk's size and get him rolling we should just trade his big ass.

    Hart is way better bringing the ball up than Dame or Ant who always stall and look for something that is never there.

    Then Nurk hits that shot and it's fucking guaranteed he'll be on the perimeter way too much now.

    10 turnovers, 3 assists for the home team.

    I would doubt that the numbers would have our offense more productive with Hart bringing the ball up against set defenses than it is with Dame in that situation. Josh in transition all day long but I'll take Dame setting the table every time against a set D.

    Are we trying to find the most creative way to turn the ball over today?
