Walton can't really do much with the talent he has on the floor.

Magic got lucky with Kuzma.

Lonzo is not making an immediate impact.

Magic is wrong about Ingram IMO..

Randle, Nance and Clarkson should be traded. HopE magic can finally see this..


Let's see what Mr Magic does but so far he has failed to deliver.

If you expected a team of rent-a-vets and young players/rookies to play like a well-oiled machine by the second preseason game, you were just setting yourself up for disappointment.

Magic is trying to sell the product of young and exciting team. I don't know what will happen after 5-6-7 losses in a row.

Game 2 of preseason with shortened training camp. Denver has continuity with their young core, we don't...so patience

Honestly sick of the Lonzo magic Johnson hoopla already lol.

Magic Johnson wanted so bad to make a splash and put his stamp on the team and franchise by selecting his guy Lonzo ball.

It's annoying as hell how he's just talking him and Ingram up the whole time giving them unrealistic expectations.
While trading away our best player in Dangelo

Lonzo looked good next to JC caus it was someone else who could create and someone Lonzo could play off of.

You don't think having another guard that is a good shooter and playmake like Dangelo wouldn't have helped with Lonzo?

He traded Dangelo cause he said he needed a leader. He's supposedly the best leader of all time and he couldn't help Dangelo out with that? Better yet he talks Lonzo up all the time saying he make people better but yet he didn't think he can play with Dangelo.

And yeah we got rid of the mozgov contract. But for what? Magics dream of 2 max players is ridiculous and out of touch. No two max players gonna come here. They're in their primes and aren't gonna wait for these kids to grow up. But yet we had a guard that averaged 15&5 after two not so ideal situations in his first two years.

And I love kuzma/ but to think we couldn't have gotten him without the Dangelo trade is dumb.
No one pegged him as a first rounder. He would've definitely have been there when we picked 30th.

Lol sorry..I've had a bunch to drink and I miss Dangelo and I Jesus Christ I miss Mitch Kupchak and John black. Hate how magic wanted to make sure to wipe everyone out just because they were affiliated with Jim buss

We gave Mitch close two decades or so, let's give Magic at least one year before we call for his head yes?

It wasn't like Mitch left him a loaded roster OR a good cap situation yes?

Thoughts?

JRr13 is the panicky type. Right after we got the second pick, he was complaining that we would end up with the "boring" Fultz and not the "exciting" Ball. Now than we get Ball he's complaining that Ball hasn't made "an immediate impact" by his second preseason game.

JRr13 is in for a long, frustrating season.

I think Lavar Ball really got Magic sold on Lonzo.

I can't believe Magic is so gullible.

But we could have had Tatum. Imagine Tatum and Kuzma on the same floor.

Fultz is instant offense bro..

Yeah, i thought he was boring. But now that i see Lonzo in the flesh, OMG.

And Fultz play in the NBA he is light years better than Ball.His game is NBA ready material.

I was basing my assessment on college ball. But now that i see both in the NBA.

Has Magic F#$k3# up?

Whats up with these chicken littles? lol our best player isn't even playing. Our 3 best players from last year are not on the team this year. Give this thing some time. The team has showed flashes in both preseason games.

You should probably lower your standards.

Expecting a 19yr old rookie to make an immediate impact is a bit jarring. Not to mention this team has new faces, each with different roles and keys to a better season than last.

The chemistry still needs to be built, and that doesn't happen over night.

Also, I'd understand if this thread was made 25 games into the regular season, but this is preseason.

True..

Hopefully the awful 3 pt shooting can improve with Lopez on the floor.

If we still suck more than we should this year I would start blaming Luke.

I can already see him misusing Ingram.
