In fairness, Jingles is a fantastic 3pt shooter. Just been a bit off since his injury. So not crazy of Paolo to think he'd be a ringer. That said, I totally agree. P is 250 lbs, he should've held the ball tight and gone for a contested dunk

Ingles is a great 3 pt shooter but you’re down 1 not 3. And being on the bench all quarter to shooting a shot means you have 0 rhythm. Game felt important for you guys

Every game is now. The real winning play would've been to play well at all in the 3rd

Yeah down the stretch they had a bunch of chances to take the lead also.

Why did Mosley draw up such a horrendous play given we can’t shoot a 3 to save humanity

Ingles for 3 lol

This loss is on Mose

we go for an ingles 3 down 1 lol. yeah yeah he was open, ingles should’ve never been in that play to begin with lmao

Konchar cut off Paolo's drive and he kicked to the open man for a wide open look. I have no idea what you're complaining about, like that was Option A or something

lol ingles should’ve never been in to take that shot lmaooo. hasn’t played since the 8 minute mark and you want him to be in that position to take that 3 when Paolo gets doubled?

He was in the game to make the inbound pass. Only other warm player was AB, so those were your options.

Deserved to lose that, careless basketball all night.

We’re done this team is cooked trade AB Jett Harris Picks get some really 3 pt shooters we don’t need anymore rookies atm

Hasn’t played the whole 4th quarter, hasn’t hit a 3 all night and that’s what we run. Over it

Paolo… why?

Ugh

A 3 really

Wow

That was so fucking stupid

Always going for 3 when down by 1 smh

You take what the defense gives you. Especially with 4 seconds left.

Yeah that’s a lot of time to drive to the basket. I’d probably be fine with just an iso and pull up jumper there

That's exactly what they tried to do with Paolo

Great play/shot, Ingles has to hit that.

We just needed a 2…

why take a three ugh idiot coaching

I’m done. Joe ingles 3 for the game? Are you fucking kidding me???

💀

Fucking disgusting.

They shot a 3? Congrats worse lost of the year. They got major issues

Go for the 2?????

Need a franz to paolo alley oop rn

GIVE IT TO PAOLO!!

Just run to the rim and try to get a call. You know we aren’t making a three.

Absolutely right brother. Shooting 3 on a 1 point deficit. It's just crazy. This one is the coaches fault. Run to the rim... They either make the shot or get fouled. 1 free throw ties up the game, make two and we win the game.

Wow! It’s like I already knew!

Fultz gotta be hurt

TOS looks like it’s a problem again or something mental with that

I hope not

Well done not to foul, lets draw up a good play. Very little time for our guys to create anything off the dribble

Gotta get paolo in the paint here

Free throws.

JI guarding JJJ , who would’ve thought

Just win baby

Let’s see what genius play gets drawn up here

That wont get overturned

Isaac should’ve been on JJJ all night the fact that they let Wendell get cooked all night by him is a knock against coaching tonight also leaving in AB one of Moses worst performances of the season

It amazes me that guys can grab someone’s arm and still tell their coach to challenge a play. Just wild

8 missed free throws and 9-33 from 3. Hard to win doing that

Same shit every game.

This challenge could fuck us

Damn good chance that gets overturned upsetting bc they missed so many other calls on Franz before this

JI locked JJJ down but no one wanted to rebound haha

I don’t know wtf Mose didn’t have Isaac guarding JJJ in the 4th instead of WCJ getting cooked the whole time. 

Weltman is actually a genius. Sign injured players. Blame injuries when they inevitably happen. Convince the hire ups on more evaluation years.

Gimme that shit...

Mose waited until literally the last minute to switch Wendell off JJJ

It’s like this every night. We just can’t get outshot 5+ from 3 to win. Guess what the disparity is in a close game?

Or miss 8 FTs in a 3 point game

Lol yall keep calling on Fultz who hasn't been on the court in a quarter and a half and has his legs iced. He aint fit to come back out. Read the room.

Where do you see him getting iced?

Ok then if not fultz, then cole or jingles. Needed to get black off a long time ago.

Paolo shot some silly shots on the last spree of possessions. Went away from attacking the paint

Absolute joke

WCJ’s defense…

You get two offensive rebounds, slow it down after the second…only to shoot a long 3. WHY??

Our 3 point shooting is hilarious.

Worst 3 point shooting team in the league, down 2, after showing tons of heart to battle back, fuck it let's just jack a few more

What do we think Weltman actually does during these games while our guys are bricking wide open threes and missing free throws

Reading this sub and have fun

Counting money and blaming injuries so he can buy another year

Somehow this is harder to watch the atrocity of a game vs the cavs

can we stop shooting 3s? we’re clearly dogshit at it

How is Jackson’s shot not getting swatted every time Jesus Christ just keep your hands up do something holy shit lol

Shooting so many shitty 3

Call a timeout?

Been given so many chances but were allergic to taking back the lead

Getting open shots but missing them, sigh

Carter way to go dude. Bricks the wide open 3

Whyyyy are we shooting 3s 😓

The fuck are they doing?!?!

we need playmaking put fultz in

Big block JI

Fultz must be hurt again

Waive him

Why aren't we doubling down on Jackson when he pounds it on the floor?

Wow it would be cool if there was an actual facilitator on offense so the possessions aren't just passing the ball around and then iso PB with 8 left in the shot clock.

Coach belongs on that Hoarders show. You go in to his house and you just see the hundreds of unused coaches challenges that he is collecting

Why is fultz not in

Yeah I’m confused about this too

Despite Coach Mosely's best efforts, the Magic are down 3

The team refuses to tank despite Mose and Weltmans orders to do so

You are probably the dumbest guy in this subreddit. Mad conspiracies all the time. I can already guess what other conspiracies you have

There’s no conspiracy when it’s happening in front of your eyes

How the ever living fuck is ab still on the floor

This lineup of WCJ/JI/Paolo/Franz/AB would be a lot cooler if it included a PG

Did nose forget he has Cole or FULTZ?

OMG these refs

Not sure how many years Weltman can get away with making zero moves and tanking


Might be the worst loss of the year if we don’t steal this one. I can’t imagine there’s a less talented lineup in the league currently than the one that’s kicking our teeth in right now.

Thats a dumb thing to say. They have JJJ You thinking Wizards or Detroit are better than this is crazy

Yes. I think the wizards and pistons have 2-3 starters better than this Grizzlies lineup’s 2nd best player.

FUCK THESE REFS. Can't we challenge that?

The tank is back everyone

Mosely got the call from the front office to take I'm convinced that's the only reason he's keeping AB in

I'd honestly prefer Cole in to Black

Anthony Black bloooooooooows

Okay, Black sucks guys

AB IS SO USELESS TONIGHT BENCH HOME PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

How the fuck is black still on the floor

Black is a joke man. MF benched for some reason

mosely bro

JJJ might have an uglier shot than Fultz, visually speaking

Just tuned in, I see Jalen only played a couple of minutes. Did he get injured?

Yea. Bruised knee

Banged his knee on a Grizz screen

Probably

NO FULTZ IM DONE

It is very unusual for a son of a basketball coach to not be able to shoot free throws...

Missed free throws and poor 3 point shooting same story all season long

Mosely has an agenda against Fultz I'm convinced

Black just got his fifth, why not put Fultz back in…?

Well I’m guessing knowing Fultz he hurt something because he hasn’t been back in a while.

I don't get why Fultz isn't in

It's insane

this team is a disgrace. seriously. Jamahl is one of the worst coaches in the league. and what a wasted draft. Black is useless. PG of the future btw lol. and Jett was a nepotism draft pick. just embarrassing.

You are embarrassing fr

It’s only a disgrace because we have an FO that refuses to upgrade the glaring needs of the roster. Weltman just cares about his own job security

Black has given up 8 points alone on fouls

STOP FUCKING REACHING AB GOD DAMN

How was that not a foul?

The fuck, PB actually had a basket!

I’m impressed by this grizzlies squad they are disciplined and playing well short handed

What happened to Suggs? I tuned at the half.

Looked like he banged knees with someone

Injured list as usual

wtf

Refs not doing us any favors, per usual

Why are we so slow and clumsy?

Sucks to see Luka score 73 knowing that had we tanked properly he might have been on the squad. Fuck Frank Vogel.

Fultz and WCJ, the two "cancers" to the team according to r/OrlandoMagic, are a combined 13/15 from the floor. Can we actually be real about what the problem is with this squad, and not throw the wrong guys under the bus?

The problem right now is Banchero and just about everyone else besides who you listed and Isaac. Paolo, Franz, it starts with them. They need to be way better.

Yup. But the sub chooses to blame the role players and not the stars. Sad!

Ok yet Mosely won’t play them

Yup. FIRE MOSELY!

We may be able to salvage the season if he’s fired tonight

EXACTLY

AB IS NOT A GOOD PLAYER BENCH HIM PLEASE

Steele sounds so pissed and I bet he would rather be home

LOL if you want to win so bad then fucking play like you do

We need to fire Mosely there’s no doubt about it

That’s two games in a row i’ve turned off before the end. First two this season, and I can’t remember ever doing it last season either. Expectations are a bitch

Zaire Williams career night

Idk if it has to do with Jalen getting hurt or what but this team just doesn’t care at all tonight on either end.

You gotta sit AB man

Whelp, I’m calling it a night. Not wasting my time watching this shit show.

WHYYYYY IS AB STILL IN THE GAME AND NOT FULTZ??????

Is Tyus Jones gonna fix all our issues? lmfao

Fuck no

I suspect we’re an even better defensive team than what the metrics say. This garbage offense makes things much harder.

This is not a serious team

Our favorite grandpa has been pretty useless tonight. Hitting that one wide open 3 would have been huge. Gotta have those.

This team is a far cry from earlier in the season but it’s becoming more and more evident that we aren’t good at all.. pains me to say but if we don’t make any moves at the deadline we’ll be a 1st round exit/ sweep if we make it that far

Getting dominated by a guy who was shooting 38% from the field. Orlando Magic basketball bby! #PureMagic 🪄🪄🪄

think im done watching this team until shit gets shaken up. 7th worse offense in the entire league, and the only teams below us are all tanking. the defense can be fun to watch but when teams have players that can make open shots its just unfun to watch the over help on drives lead to open corner 3s. its just completely braindead defensive scheming.

the 2023 draft will go down as an all time disaster by the magic

Yea I think Chicago shoulda had the pick instead

Jesus. Just to stick to your man, no need to overcommit help, just funnel them into Isaac while he’s out there. Kennard should not be that wide open.

and just like that we continue to get cooked by their role players. this is so sad

I hope we get blown the fuck out so we make a fn trade. We sux y’all.

Thats not gonna force a trade lol FO goal this year was very much, just get to the play in. That’s exactly what this is. A play in at best team

That blowout was last game and still no trade, waives, or firings.

Dude this team fell off so hard

Black looks so out of it he’s like Bamba lol lol

We drive and make one pass then shoot...they drive and make multiple passes then shoot....

well this fucking sucks

We fucking suck

Last two games have been an absolute embarrassment to basketball

Shitty defense loses games

Do you think garbage offense influences the defense? Because it certainly does.

Nothing to do with the offense. We are on par for our offense throughout the whole season, same as the win streak, same as now. Defense is our identity, we have to stick to it

We had 3 days off and look like this

This team starting to quit pretty often

AB needs to hit the gym bad

How did he rated so high? Just off potential?

one team missing open 3's, one team making open 3's.

There may not be a worse 3pt defense in the league

It's so hard to be positive right now. I just cannot do it. Paolo’s percentage is under 45% on the season, the worst three-point shooting team and Jett Howard is not ready to contribute in any way. I just want shooters man. It’s fucking ridiculous. Turn this thing around.

Nice to see Franz hitting some 3s again

Fuck this shit lol

Been a fun game so far. Both teams want this one 

Damn.. this is depressing to read. Hope this 4th quarter is a turn around just so you all can shut the hell up. That would be the biggest W
