TURNOVER TURMOIL: Can Orlando Magic FIX Costly Mistakes and make their breakthroughs PERMANENT?



TURNOVER TURMOIL: Can Orlando Magic FIX Costly Mistakes and make their breakthroughs PERMANENT?

The Orlando Magic gave away their chance to sweep the Boston Celtics as turnovers once again gutted the Magic and slowed their offense to a crawl.

Orlando’s 17 turnovers led to 29 Boston points and it was the only thing an angry Jamahl Mosley wanted to mention after the game. The Magic have been one of the worst teams in the league at protecting the ball and it continues to derail their progress as they try to live up to their lofty expectations.

Every problem the Magic has springs from this turnover issue. And Orlando will not be able to take advantage of its stellar offensive lineup until it fixes this problem.

  1. Great analysis today. You hit all the points on the head. I’m wondering why they haven’t run any floppy action with Bane and Jalen. The way Suggs has been shooting this season they have to respect it. This should get Bane some shots. And they need to go to Paolo earlier but he also needs to get his bearings and stop turning the ball over. This was a missed opportunity but they look better than the first two weeks of the season for sure. We are trending in the right direction

  2. We still need more trades. Isaac,Tyus,and GoGa package for a better starting center move WCJ to bench. I say we keep either Suggs or AB but not both AB is not consistent yet. Move 1 for a shhoter like simmons< i say trade AB to celtics for Ab at trade deadline Simmons wants to be here he plays amazing against magic to show our management that hes needs to be here. Simmons off the bench like in boston would be great.

  3. Trade Howard and AB to Celtics for Simmons include Goga or someone to make salaries work. Simmons is on a expiring contract so we can work out a better contract in the summer. He wants to be here so I doubt that he would walk for money.

  4. Love the show but this Orlando offense is putrid. They bring in Desmond bane and go from scoring 90 a game to 100 a game. That’s not gonna get it done

  5. Why haven't you asked Moseley why he isn't running plays to get Bane open looks? Tired of all the softball questions you and other press ask the coach. 1 3pt attempt for a guy we gave up so much for who was supposed to fix our biggest weakness. Yet we have AB and Paolo shooting more 3s than Bane.

  6. How in the world does Bane ONLY HAVE 1 3PT FG 😡😡😡 Mosley has zero offensive creativity. AB shouldn’t not be taking shots at the end of the game with Franz, Paolo, and Bane on the floor 🤦🏽‍♂️ the problem with the open man gets the shot strategy is that we CAN’T shoot put the ball in the hands of the best players

  7. Is Goga the worst body language guy on the team? Gosh he’s awful. Getting back slow, not taking the ball out of bounds, head down, sulking. I can’t stand his attitude.

  8. I understand the frustration and panic as everyone wanted this to be a fast start to the year. Not using the same we need time like last year but this is gonna take some bumps along the way. Clearly the starting lineup it very good Suggs not being able to play longer is an issue as AB still is inconsistent. Paulo turnovers don’t help but it’s also hard to beat the team down when all but dell had a positive +/-. We are losing these game with our bench players not being consistent enough. Tristan is player great AB is a 50/50 if he will be good or not we need a 3rd player on the bench to be consistent because Suggs can’t play 30 mins we have 0 offensive punch outside the 2 young guys and this is where we are seeing Mo would give us that spark we need. It’s gonna be a long season

  9. Great show Philip. Hopefully you feel better than you sound. The big 3 shot 1 for 10 from 3. That to me is a pretty big problem.

  10. They are who they are. Turnovers have been a problem for a few years. They also have the wrong guys shooting. 2-4 at home to start. Damn even the NBA wanted us to have a great start.

  11. Wendell Carter six 3pt attempts and Desmond Bane only one, that should tell you everything you need to know about Moseley as a coach.

  12. At some point Mosley or Paolo gotta go so they might as well get rid of Mosley now it's obvious In the press conference Mosley was blaming Paolo for the lost

  13. the same way we had cole for continuity and then traded him when we needed to take the next step, is exactly what they have to do with mose. yeah we all love him, it was nice n thanks for everything, but we have to move on now. magic have PLENTY of fire power on offense, its the coaching staff's fault for not putting them in position.

  14. Coach Mosley knows what time it is. I know he is liked but you got to win in the pros. Especially after the front offiice has forked out the money.

  15. Not mad, game was fun, shold have won. Buuuuuutttt..have you seen the schedule for the upcoming month or so? 😬

  16. Magic need to get other people going, opposing team’s defensive know Magic are trying to get bane plays. Run a play that gets Suggs an open 3 get him going for example.
