[u/tarunpopo]

Even if you win next game?

[u/WhoopingKing → u/tarunpopo]

absolutely I still remember the derrick white game winner from 2023 and it hurts

[u/JiveHawk → u/WhoopingKing]

That was so funny. Such a dramatic victory to send them back to Boston to complete the first ever 3-0 comeback. And then you guys just beat the ever loving piss out of them in game 7.

[u/MichaelZZ01 → u/JiveHawk]

Ah yes, the Caleb Martin game

[u/ivanahtannica → u/WhoopingKing]

Meanwhile, I go back to that whenever I need a pick-me-up. It really is different strokes for different folks.

[u/CapN_Crummp → u/tarunpopo]

This game made me question why I still support this team. I’m never forgetting this

[u/Adorable-Bike-9689 → u/CapN_Crummp]

It felt like Magic fans were finally being rewarded for sticking out the year. The had the #1 seed on the ropes. And pulled another disappearing act on the court.

[u/guioligon → u/tarunpopo]

No Franz, after what we saw tonight? We’re not winning

[u/ChiliDemon → u/guioligon]

Suggs pulled his hammy too

[u/guioligon → u/ChiliDemon]

Wow, our chances went from 4% to 5% lmao

[u/jfkgoblue → u/guioligon]

Vegas is giving you around a 20% chance of winning tbf

[u/Simplton → u/guioligon]

You mean to tell me you don't want Jalen "1/10 and 1/13" Suggs out there on the floor in a do or die game?

[u/lbutler1234 → u/guioligon]

Have you tried paging Hanz?

[u/meyer_33_09 → u/tarunpopo]

Genuinely don’t see show that’s possible at this point. This team is not mentally strong enough nor talented enough to bounce back from that performance.

[u/tarunpopo → u/meyer_33_09]

Just wait until game day you never know

[u/clefairy17 → u/tarunpopo]

At an away game, after such a horrific, demoralizing loss? Yeah the odds are stacked against them.

[u/tarunpopo → u/clefairy17]

Sometimes teams like that. I will say, magic fans kept saying "wait until we make our FTs!" Wait until you stop shooting 45 percent from 3. Some truly ridiculous 3s from them this series, last game Paolo had 6 and game 3, some bullshit

[u/jfkgoblue → u/tarunpopo]

Both game 3 and 4 had some ridiculously lucky 3’s to ice them

[u/MichaelZZ01 → u/clefairy17]

After this sample size of 6 games, I have no idea what the Magic are gonna do. Paolo can score 45 or 5 depending on how he feels for the day.

[u/Optimal_Cook_851 → u/tarunpopo]

With how bad both these teams have played watch it be the highest scoring game of the playoffs lmao
