I was so happy for Markelle when he made his return against the Pacers the other night. It was kind of emotional the standing ovation he got from the crowd here in Orlando. And to support him our entire team or false jersey shirts to the arena before the game. I know where rebuilding but I think we have a bright future

I showed up late to the game on accident and as soon as I walked into the arena a timeout was called and it was buzzing that he was about to check in.. So i got there just in time to be a part of the standing ovation

let's face it , he's in a much better situation than he was in Philly than he is now in Orlando and i'm really rooting for Markelle Fultz, so Markelle, if you're watching this , we're all rooting for you dude and we hope you can succeed in Orlando

Waiving Joe Harris stands out to me as one of the single most mind-boggling moves ever by the Orlando Magic. Harris was on a second round rookie-scale contract and already a 3-point bomber in Cleveland. The only reason the Cavaliers waived Joe is because he got hurt, and they couldn't afford to wait, since they were chasing a title. The Magic, OTOH, were in the early stages of their rebuild, and could have easily given him the time he needed to rehab. 💁🏻‍♂️🏀

Congratulations bro. I'm a hard magic fan. I'm actually going to the Warriors game when they come here to town on the 22nd. I asked Casey to do a video on Markelle and the magic and he did an amazing job.

This is a pretty good observation besides the crap about his Mom. Kellz has a wonderful family with a great bond. He is going to be a great guard in the league. He has great work ethic, unselfish, a great feel for the game with a high B-ball IQ. F2G All Day!!

I watch all your videos and enjoy them all, but something about this one made it particularily great

It's funny how when the Warriors were winning chips the 3pt shot was the end all be all of basketball. But in all actuality the midrange jumper has remained the most dangerous weapon in playoff basketball, why were the Warriors so good, because KD was still hitting midrange pull-ups on those 3pt shooting teams. Good for Markelle, he can shoot midrange jumpers again.

in the 2022 season both methods of scoring have been the best way to go. instead of in 2014 to 2019 where 3s were the thing u were meant to be doing. warriors are insane on shooting though with poole, thompson, steph making 3s look like easy midrange shots

Markelle has been diagnosed with neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome, a physical injury," Brothers said. "TOS affects nerves between the neck and shoulder resulting in abnormal functional movement and range of motion, thus severely limiting Markelle's ability to shoot a basketball.

I never understood the hype on Fultz but I'm glad he is believing in himself and playing his game instead of what he thinks everyone else wants him to do. As with some other players in history when they get their head right they really take off and their game does as well allowing them to have a longer career than had they not!

Markelle is very talented. 3pt is a necessity now in the league but DeMar show us that it is okay to shot less in the 3 as long as you can jack up midrange shots consistently. He can work on fixing his 3 point shot but for now he should focus on shooting midrange shots efficiently.

He and Franz and the only fascinating things about this team

Getting open for a mid range jumper is such a beautiful thing… I’m an old school basketball fan as you can tell 🤣🤣

I love and appreciate the work that goes into these videos. I do have one suggestion which is to reduce the use of the word “anyway” which can make the narrative feel less credible or lacks confidence in the story being told.

Maybe not on the same level as this year but markelle is about to be the next demar derozan. Watch the space. His ability to playmake in the half court, finish at the rim and hit midranges will have him being a 15-20ppg, 5 assist and 5 rebound player for years to come barring injury. He will be showing everyone he is not a bust. Always had faith in markelle. Glad to see him proving the nba wrong. Scary potential.

He didn’t just have some shoulder injury tho, it was quite serious if I remember correctly

He's solid role player for us

First view!!! Notifications on love your vids

Haha - nice

correlation isn't causation though - it's not that the midrange shot is now "better" - it's that floor spacing is now significantly better across the board and that opens up the midrange. If he doesn't have capable shooting around him, the midrange will still be a bad shot (generally speaking)

I've always believed Markelle would become great he will become great Mark my words

Late in the thread..... Markelle reminds me of Bernard King. He has his options, sees the set up, and attacks it. He isn't as big as Bernard, but he has the attack. He's not too far from being a star.

They redeemed themselves somewhat by eventually getting maxey but it was a loss no matter how you put it. They traded two frps to get the first overall pick. They traded fultz for maxey (two frps). Could've used that pick to grab a guy like Tatum, Mitchell, Fox, Isaac, Bam, OG and whoever with the other FRP in their respective draft.

I absolutely love watching players that have great midrange games. It's beautiful to watch. All the little nuances a player puts into his game to be able to get an inch of breathing room to get a shot off.

Just cause he scores 9 points a game doesn’t mean he’s saved. Still one of the worse picks of all time considering they traded even more picks when they could’ve got Tatum at 3.

Didn't realize the pick they got for Markelle turned into Tyrese Maxey. Sixers fans often look at Maxey as being what they were hoping to get in Fultz. Some consolation for the Philly fans.

$50M, that's my kind of hell. Give me the $50M hell please.

Go markelle

He had TOS on his shoulder.he was misdiagnosed with 76s.it is why his shot was broken.you didnt acknowlege that.why? Now he is healthy and playing out his mind

Is he saved? I mean, I guess. I think he still will be considered a “bust” (whatever that means) no matter what he does. That’s not really me trying to hate I just think the fact alone that he was traded within 2 years of being pick 1 is like unprecedented. He says nothing but nice things about Philly to this day and one of the picks they got for him was Maxey who is working out for Philly. So I don’t think Philly fans have any hate to the dude, it’s just kind of the “bust” narrative because he wasn’t great within a year or whatever

The correlation between midrange js and EFG% in that graph showed almost 0, which in statistics, means no correlation. In lamens terms, one has nothing to do with the other. In more lamens terms, this graph doesn't prove that it's good or bad.

Kevin love is alive? Woah.

Just imagine where the Sixers would be if they drafted Tatum instead of Fultz. It was a stupid pick from the start as Simmons was already the point guard of the future there. With Tatum that 2019 team probably wins a ship, they never trade for Harris and Butler and Simmons are still happy 76ers with two or three rings.

Very small grammatical error - It's a NBA bust not an NBA bust

22 points per game next year

Fultz is good player, but is nothing more than backup PG- role player.

You're way too high on the Kevin Love thing. He had absolutely no shot at 6moty. Tyler Herro will win that award. I doubt Love is even top 10

Yeah that Magic have somehow managed to screw themselves better than they’ve helped themselves over the years

He was never even a bust. He was just hurt. TOS is no joke

He suffers from TOS Which has stripped him from his shooting ability

Not to mention Jimmy playoff buckets who not exactly a 3pt shooter

Toronto is only team that can save fultz now

Bro was never a bust just had shoulder problems heading into the league

Bennett being cut by a team in Turkey… A team which happens to be the EuroLeauge champions. So I took your comment personal. Of course, the European champions would cut Bennett…
