BREAKTHROUGH: Orlando Magic’s UGLY win shows their POTENTIAL | Desmond Bane WILLS Magic to win

The Orlando Magic are trying to prove they can be among the elite teams. A win over the Chicago Bulls is not likely to prove that. But finding a way to win even on a bad night and willing themselves to victory is what the elite teams do.

Desmond Bane scored 18 of his 39 points in the fourth quarter to help will the Magic to victory and Anthony Black helped spark the Magic back from a 15-point deficit. On a night when shots were not falling and the defense was far from perfect, the Magic delivered a victory to learn from.

  1. It's becoming a HUGE national storyline regarding whether Banchero makes this team better. The longer he is out and the more we continue to win will only intensify this narrative.

  2. I think Poalo should play off ball like Giannis does. Maybe Magic should put Poalo on the post if he play more down low he score way more points and more chances to get rebounds. Playoff ball the can pass to Poalo versus him dribbling to get to his spot. When needed to slow game down Poalo can do like LeBron does especially if they have a large lead take over game by get his shots and facilitating ball.

  3. everyone ignored the magic and paolo through all the yrs they fought + built themselves into a great team. now suddenly everyone is an expert and talk crap against the star player who led us to this point in the first place.

  4. This game was really bad, I can't believe we won. The offense was embarrassing until the 4th quarter, and defense was really good at the first half but then it disappeared. You've got to win those though. Bane was a monster, but halfcourt offense needs Paolo.

  5. The Magic can be better with Paolo adjusting his game when he is back. If not, the Magic are better without him.

  6. Not only do we need Paolo, we also need Mo Swag back to get us buckets when things are stagnant. Helps us when those droughts occur. We are not better without Paolo, we are good without him, we are elite with him.

  7. Bane has that Suggs toughness, but with more scoring potential and consistency throughout the games. His will to win won us the last two games.

  8. Every star has to adjust to get better if p5 can play off ball he will become more of a threat , with the ball moving unpredictable For this team to win a ring this year it will be not his sacrifice but more his maturity to accept this along with coach Mosley adapting to the nature of the team changing
