    Let’s give some credit to Moe. Dude balled out and limited his fouls.

  3. Secret_AznMan

    Billion dollar contract with a stake in the franchise immediately.

  4. Tdsj386

    PB is that dude, he has taken the heavily injured team on his back. I hope this win gives us the juice to stomp the Hawks too… Go Magic and play the damn song!

  5. ThebetterWhatnot

    Queen needs to stay on the team. Someone that just plays hungry out there is what u need

  7. illgetthere

    So many huge performances. Paolo triple double, Suggs turning into Curry from three, Cole having a huge 2nd half. But massive shout out to Queen. Amazing on D and hustles like his life depends on it.

  8. barnan3132

    anyone got the clip of Suggs’ defense on Murray in the 4th? That shit was beautiful

  9. Milla4Prez66

    So awesome for Paolo to finally get his first triple double. An awesome triple double too, not one of those Elfrid Payton triple doubles where he barely scores 10.

  10. Shinebright444

    so – is Jalen not our starting PG of the future everyone keeps asking for?

  12. Hardwork407

    I’m 4-0 at Magic games this season, 2 home & 2 away. Someone buy me tickets for the rest of the season. LETS GO MAGIC! This was by far the best game I’ve been to. 8 guys on the injury report, 3 starters, and we fought for this win. Great game!

  14. willy2wet

    Petty warriors fan cumming in peace, LFG! Ty for humbling that fat boy.

  15. maursupial

    We really swept the defending champions. WE ARE 2024 WORLD CHAMPIONSSSSS soon

  16. GreatWhiteNurse

    Paolo will go 1 out of 2 on his free throws all game long, but when its late in the 4th and the pressure is on, he always sinks them both

  17. ActApprehensive3271

    What a win!!! Queen was great as was everyone. Suggs from deep, Cole catching fire, Mo got rolling and played good defense. P5 just putting the team on his back and doing a bit of everything.

  18. mylastphonecall

    love this team. doesn’t matter who we’re missing, we still have a shot at winning.

  20. supbruhbruhLOL

    Screw Shaq, just retire Paolos jersey now

  21. Loose-Animal7305

    We just swept the world champs, so by osmosis we are now the new world champs

  22. mr2firstnames

    “Name for your 🍕order sir?”

    “Aaron Gordon”

  24. JordanSchor

    Paolo triple dub, Suggs 7 threes, Cole with 20 off the bench

    This team is nuts, more than half of our typical starters are injured and we just beat the defending champs. There’s still growing pains as we’re very young but there’s so much talent here

  25. AlienGhost000

    IIRC, last time we were in Denver, Jokic hit that last second dagger

    Not this time Joker

  27. s0urc3f0ur

    The best part of this win is that I don’t have to hear Dante say “gotta do it on this end” repeatedly for the next two games

  28. SpideyUdaman

    I don’t know much of the details about this game but this goes to show this team can will a win and we just have to believe them. Maybe Nuggets has an off day, but a champion still behaves like a champion even on the off days. Let’s replace champion with winner.

    Ofc new talent traded for a purpose is useful. Having players who don’t injure is useful. But look at this team, in limp mode, beating a team they shouldn’t statistically be able to, with most of their significant players on the floor.

    Paolo and Suggs must always believe in themselves. They probably don’t come to the floor every start of a game thinking “oh that’s the Nuggets(or any formidable teams), ain’t no way….”. You best believe they’ll win it for you. Even if they lose, so what? You already know this is a different Magic. They’re not Pistons. And they’re significantly better than even the playoff contending Magic during AG-Vuc-Fournier prime.

    The past few games had been close games. They’ve always been trying. Trading for a good player is as tasty as candy now. “Just one good player and things will be solved”. I do believe it will relieve our team. I also do believe it doesn’t work like magic. I’d say situations like this make the team tougher, and winning means positive growth out of a struggle. Let the nation know there’s an Italian dude wreaking havoc in the league. Eh, whatever. I don’t own the business. Have at it.

  29. itssexitime

    I was there. I have been to many many games since ’89 and this is in my top 5. I still can’t believe we won and I witnessed it in person. Just incredible.
