Orlando went 45 minutes between made baskets, going scoreless from 8:46 PM ET to 9:31 PM ET 😳

The Magic's 23 straight misses were the most by any playoff team this century.
 
What I really think is going to happen is that they'll try to make some roster moves with what they have and then they'll get to another mediocre play in bubble season. I get not wanting to blow it up but they need to.

Sounds like they're in talks to extend Steph and possibly Dray. Seems like they want to roll with this group for at two more years.

Probably about keeping that arena full as long as they can.

I think they're looking at one last push with a fully healthy Butler and Moody. Maybe they give LeBron 2 years if he comes here. If that's the plan I hope they just sit Steph for most of next season.

There’s talk of klay coming back too but I have no idea why.

Why wouldn't Kerr play him if he doesn't suck?

He might but as soon as the kid makes a mistake, he will be banished to the bench. You cant keep yo-yoing guys in and out of the lineup. I can't recall one young player that GS has drafted that has flourished under his tutelage. The Splash Bros. and Draymond were already here when Kerr came on board. The only player I can think of in recent memory is maybe Poole for a season or two. Podz maybe but he is a JAG and terribly inconsistent. He was only getting minutes with all the injuries they had last year.

They're just better off trading that pick in a move for a veteran. One rookie, especially not a lottery pick is going to have much of an impact on an aging roster. The best thing would have been to just blow this shit up.
 
Players that can play get to play. Shit, even players that can't play get to play. Kerr has gotten plenty of contributions from late round picks and G League dudes over the years. Wiseman and Kuminga are terrible players. One is out of the league and the other just set a record for being a negative player. I'm not sure that Kerr has enough left in the tank to go through a rebuild but the narrative that he won't play young players doesn't stand up to scrutiny.
