Franz has NBA players yelling for a Travel call on him because his footwork is as quick as their twitter work.

It's been so fun watching the Pacers be the best Offense and the Magic being the best Defense. Can't wait for both of these teams to make that leap to make a deep playoff run!

My two favorite teams are finally good and are almost polar opposites. Indiana pacers and Orlando magic. It’s been fun watching both of them for the first time in years.

Bit of a disservice not mentioning Moe Wagner leads the team in charges with almost double what the second place player (Suggs) has, but yeah, quality analysis and vid, HV! Thanks for giving the Magic some love.

Thank you for giving the credit to my hometown team! May not live in Orlando anymore but seeing my basketball team after almost a decade of bullshit play this well is a blessing!

This channel delivers such high quality, fantastic work! I really love that every clip highlights your story, that there are barely any visual numbers or text lines (those slow down the story in breakdowns on other channels) in the video. And your pace is nice and relaxed. I also loved how you showed every individual rotation player plus how they work together.

YOUNG Orlando Magic ready to back playoffs atmosphere this season 💪🔥💪

Magic need to play it slow, could use more shooting but shouldn’t be looking for major upgrades. Black, Suggs, Paolo, and Franz are the core 4. There a playoff team already just imagine an off season for black and another for Suggs. This team has a top 3 young core in the league easily while being ready now. Okc in the east without the picks. When your playoff ready this young tho with all of your own picks things still look great!!

The reason why they are doing so good because their offensive players are moving without the ball and cutting to the basket. Today's NBA are all one on one then pull up for 3s.

Paolo is the clear #1 option on offense franz is just the better shooter and he’s the guy that’s always a pass away from Paolo. Reminds me a lot of Middleton. This team is banking on Suggs and Blacks shooting development.

I agree with that, what I meant when I said was Franz is the centerpiece is that he's kind of the guy that allows everything to function properly. The offense absolutely runs through Paolo more.

Banchero 💪💪💪

GoatGa is a starting center

Not sure if this is a hot take, but as Zach Lavine's trade value continues to drop, I feel like Orlando could be the best fit for him if they can get him for relatively cheap. They really need a 3-level scorer and elite shooter to help their offense and he's young enough to fit with their core. His buy-in is the only question, but seeing how nobody wants to trade for him rn will hopefully help him accept a role fitting into Orlando's system

@TannerVarrasse He's a career 38% 3pt shooter averaging 40% on 6 attempts over the last 4 seasons. What's taking away from Paolo and Franz, especially Paolo, is the lack of spacing and perimeter creation on the team.

@TannerVarrasse

6 ай бұрын

@MikeTheNBAGuy I agree we need spacing, but I just feel like he's not a great fit, and he wouldn't be content being just a spot up shooter like we need. in my eyes, he is used to being the #1 option and being somewhat ball dominant i dont know if that will mesh well with the type of ball coach mosley is trying to play, but maybe I'm wrong.

@MikeTheNBAGuy

6 ай бұрын

@TannerVarrasse I agree the main worry is buy-in, but I don't think a single great shooter fixes the Magic's offensive weaknesses either. The team really needs a 3-level scorer who can not just shoot but create his own shot, and while Lavine isn't some superstar I think he does that well enough to manage with all the other talent on this team.

Why can't this coach be a mad scientist? I don't understand? He is the orchestrator of all of it isn't he? You should really think deeply about why you worded it that way. Is there a reason? Why not say that he is a mad scientist paving the way for defensive schemes? Why not give him that credit? Please explain to me - help me understand why he doesn't deserve that credit and acknowledgement? I'm really, genuinely curious to know why your mind took that route.

I wouldn't do an even trade between wendell and kuminga either cosindering wendell is solid defensively and offensively especially because he can spread the floor with his 3pt shooting which the maguc desperately need.
