The Magic went from knocking on the door of the 2 seed...

...to potentially dropping to the 7 seed and a play-in game. :lol: :lol: :lol:
Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are dumber than that.

In other words....if the Magic lose their next 4 games, they'll probably miss the playoffs.

This was the Magic's year to advance beyond their ability in terms of wins/standing with Joel's injury and the Doc effect in cheeseland.

It looks like they are mostly going to fail. Again.

As a small side, since Joel has come back we have won 5 straight and 6 straight overall.

Granted, not the greatest opposition but still impressive.

I am curious to see if we can play spoiler in these upcoming playoffs.

The addition of Nick Nurse has been huge.

Yeah, I think in a thread with TDK I opined the 76ers are probably not realistic to win a title, but can be spoilers against a biggie for a series.

It would have been funny if the Magic made it to the 2nd/3rd seed only the play a healthy and clearly superior Philly in the first round and lose.

Sixers are 15-27 withOut Embiid (a 29-53 pace) vs. 30-8 with him (65-17). They were rolling before he went down, and they're rolling again since his return... and they're gonna roll straight to the Finals, when Embiid gonna make Joker look second-rate en route to his first Finals MVP.

Remember... you read it here first.

6'10" Banchero absolutely HATES getting offensive boards. 78 games played, 78 offensive rebounds total. Last three games he's had zero.

They've been missing 6-8 players, refs have been extremely biased, and the league is conspiring to help Giannis and Co.

Eh... nobody fights for Offensive Rebounds in today's sissy NBA... in fact the 9 "Fewest Offensive Rebounds" seasons in NBA history are the past nine (9) seasons, including this year.
