BOOS ERUPT: Orlando Magic coach Jamal Mosley RESPONDS as fans turn on team
The Orlando Magic reached another breaking point as frustration erupted at the Kia Center in the form of boos and chants to fire Jamahl Mosley. The team hit another rough game where they folded after a strong start. Even with Franz Wagner returning to the lineup, the Magic could not find the energy to get back into the game.
The Magic started off well enough and took an early lead. But when the Hawks put on a run in the second quarter, the Magic again wilted and again could not respond to a playoff-level team.
Orlando has six games left to find their identity and find itself. This ship may have already sunk.

They are done. Magic is going to get bounced in the Play-In.
No matter what the score says the defense is not what we should worry about the bad shots and turnovers are primary reason for defense looking bad. Also this team has no business trying to be fast pace team. They shouldn’t push off makes
Moseley knows he is out of here !
Fire Jeff Weltman 🔥
Paolo is playing bad. But that is thinking small… if the team ever wants to be a true contender they need answers at pg. Paolo being better improves the floor but that doesn’t make this team elite
so disappointing
Probably one of the most disappointing seasons in franchise history
Phillips I believe these players don't mesh off court therefore it spills over on court. No chemistry like last year's group.
For how bad this season has gone. I want Thibs as the head coach next. Teach these soft mfers effort!
This team ain't going anywhere with PB as your first option
magic will be the 10 seed and loose to Miami in play in only 1 game
rebuild incoming P5,Suggs,JI,Howard,Goga all need to be moved for pick or picks in draft Go get simmons,colby white and grab a rim protecting center move WCJ to pf pick up shooters : Buddy heild and another fixed
Malone and his people for coach and FO Move Weltman,Parker,Mosley . fixed
After the winning stretch and AB went down everything went down. The NBA is tough so give credit to the league. But for ppl that make big money they dont bring a true impact individually or even together. You have almost 400 million dollars on the floor and they don’t compete is insane
Thank god Suggs and Franz are back and now every single one of my problems are solved, especially coaching. Oh wait, Mosley is still employed…
FIRE MOSLEY
If you don't,
FIRE WELTMAN
If you don't,
SELL THE TEAM
That's the message, that's what I've been telling you all season long. Your answer? Mmm he deserves the chance, no shame in keeping him, nothing will change. Well, you could have avoided the worst loss in your history. There is shame in struggling to beat tanking teams, there is shame on suffering a 31-0 run, the biggest unanswered in NBA history, by a direct competitor, while they're missing Ingram and Quickly. Embarrassing, humiliating. We understand that you want to protect your friends, but you are part of the
problem…
Paolo needs to go, Franz is the future of the team…..trade paolo and bane to Milwaukee for Giannis. Black and suggs in the back court, Franz at the 3, Giannis at the 4…..wendell can go too, we need a better rim protector and rebounder. I'd get walker Kessler. Coach gotta go too
You could see it in Bancheros and Suggs faces all night long. Fire Mosley and Weltman. Trade half our bench too. We are not going anywhere with these losers. The worst part is that I wasted my money signing up for all the different channels so that I wouldn't miss a game. Jokes on me.. 🤮😡🤬
the peace's do not fit no coach or player can fix a bad gm that never gets the blame
Idek where we go from here? Is a new coach enough? What would you say to the people “franz and paolo can’t thrive together”
This whole team seems to have given up but I think especially Paolo. Think he’s over it.
Booing ur own players is a new low from fans smh…
Paolo deserves better teammates
These stretches in games when they fall asleep offensively and do not have the slightest idea how to score anymore are so tough to watch. And those stretches are exactly, why Mosley will be out at the end of the season. With all these offensive possessions that end in bad shots or turnovers it is not possible to defend well. Every team jumps on those opportunities to run the ball out. Beeing healthy is not enough, you need a plan on offense and it's quite obvious that they don't have one right now.
