Look at the clippers play hard. Let this be an example on the tanking in the nba on what happens when you don’t have control of your draft pick.
Great show. 🔥
Josh Robbin’s talks with a cadence as if he is talking about string theory or nuclear physics. In reality he is talking basketball and not even going that deep. “The Magic need to make shots”. Yeah basically anyone who have watched the Magic know this lol
Unlike Magic City.
Magic fan here. Det is NOT the best matchup. Terrible take by JR. It’s Cle and it’s not close. Our 3pt defense is top 5 in the league. Cle is soft and not great defensively. Gives our subpar offense a chance. Do better JR.
The Magic sure looked real enough last night, even without Franz and Black!
Lazy analysis on the Magic. When they are all healty, the starting 5 with Banchero, Wagner, Bane, Suggs & Carter Jr has a +14.0 net rating. There are no spacing problems at all.
Clippers can't make noise in the playoffs unfortunately because Yanic got injured. However, they have many championship calibre pieces in their roleplayers and stars so it would be nice to see, but they have to plays Spurs or OKC in round one so it's a no go in all likelihood.
lol he trynna play the magic like they not them😂
