Magic @ Suns Thursday game thread 3-16-2023

[Proximo]

It shouldn’t be that tough. At least they got it done.

 

[Mainstreet]

That was scary when Okogie blocked the 3-pointer. It was a clean block though.

 

[sdscard4]

Amen
Win is a damn win
I don't care how

 

[AsUpRoDiGy]

As great as KD is... this still isn't a championship caliber team.

 

[BirdGangThing]

Got the job done - good win

 

[Proximo]

first time I have really watched banchero. That dude is going to be very good.

 

[Mainstreet]

Some final stats.

[Absolute Zero]

Whew.

 

[Covert Rain]

Shouldn’t have been that hard but I will take the W.

Orlando is no easy team
Take a look at the teams they beat
At one point a 6 game winning streak
And they have the rookie of the year

 

[Mainstreet]

This is the block by Okogie at the end.

If Book is having a bad game we don't really stand a chance
He did just enough

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns needed Cam Payne tonight although things didn't finish as well as they could have for him.

 

[mjb21aztd]

[Mainstreet]

Devin Booker was feeling the heavy minutes with some soreness tonight.

[Muggz]

Wow that was UGLY!
I'm just gonna call it good crunch time practice.

Book doesn’t get shut down like this if KD is playing, and Magic playing good ball lately and they are long. If we didn’t miss a million threes it would help as well… I am actually encouraged that the bench at least showed up everyone that played scored can’t say that much lately…

They only show up against weak opponents.

They only show up against weak opponents.

To be fair they have played pretty welll this season just recently they seem to be missing open shots etc. either way getting out of the funk they have been in could be paramount to the rest of the season even when KD returns. He and Book create open shots and guys need to knock them down, if so this team can beat anyone imo.

 

[Dr. Jones]

DA got hit hard on a screen but I saw him favoring his hip from that point on. That Thunder game will not be fun IMO.

NM. It's his groin.

Bet he misses a game or two.

He’s a much better man defender than Bridges

2 was probably weaker than 3. 4 could be good but I'm still waiting on the Hotel series.

The first 30 minutes of 3 might be the best opening 30 minutes of any action movie ever, but it totally blew it’s wad early and never came close to getting back to those heights.

Word is the 4th is supposed to have some of the most epic action sequences ever… being compared to Fury Road as far as scope and ridiculousness.
