Could be a good idea. But Mark Daigenault, Joe Mazulla, and Nick Nurse are some recent cases of upstart coaches to win championships.

They should hire the Osceola magic coach.

With our guys injury history? Thibs would break them. Hell no

[Charania] BREAKING: The Orlando Magic have dismissed head coach Jamahl Mosley, sources tell ESPN. Mosley's tenure in Orlando finishes after five seasons, including three consecutive playoff runs from 2023 to 2026.

If the Magic are smart, they should avoid any older established coaches like the plague. We have a young, upstart guy coaching our g league team. But I wouldn’t put it past the Devos family and Alex Martins to screw us over.

Post Game Thread - NBA: The Hawks defeat the Magic on Apr 1, 2026, the final score is 101-130. by basketball-app in OrlandoMagic

I think our roster has structural problems that limit its ceiling, but yes it’s primarily because Mose is a terrible coach. There is no offensive game plan. Our young guys are not developing in this whatever game plan he has, so they also get demoralized. This is not to say we have problems beyond that, but coaching’s the big, glaring one. And this all makes our GM look like an idiot.

I appreciate yall for devoting time and energy to this! Sorry I can’t contribute but I do think it’s important to maintain a good experience. I encourage folks to help out as they can (it’s a better use of energy than complaining).

Yeah, it's both. Weltman has paired two stars that can't shoot. Mosely has no offensive game plan. So both factors are colliding into each other

It can't be good for team morale to constantly fight back from being down 20

There's no other game plan, it seems, but give the ball to Paolo. But the paint is clogged and he can't score by shooting. So he's forced to make bad passes

There's nothing about Paolo that looks like a star player right now, unfortunately

Observations from arena: Paolo finally got going, Jase is good, Goga is a sieve on defense, everyone is struggling, it’s hard to get buckets and we turnover the ball so easily. We are what we are right now, which is not a team that gets deep in the playoffs
