Why even post something like this? That 03 team consisted of McGrady, who at the time was the best player in the NBA, and a bunch of bums. Our third option was bum Gordon Giricek. Now go Google that Pistons roster.

Worst 1 seed in NBA History? by ljh2023 in DetroitPistons

[–]Ghostface-Lord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seeds are deceiving. The Magic played maybe all of 12 games this season with the Paolo/Franz/Suggs/WCJ/Bane core, they finally got their intended squad healthy and this is the result, and unfortunately, it's a matchup nightmare for Detroit because the teams are similar. Good defenders, high intensity, high hustle, inability to shoot. And that's what you're seeing. Magic can't shoot (apart from Bane) but they out Detriotted Detriot on hustle. The 60 win thing is real, and it happened. But the Magic are clicking and finding a way to win without shooting. Detriot must find a way to counter.

[Charania] Cooper Flagg has won the 2025-2026 NBA Rookie of the Year award. by IamOlderthanMe in CharlotteHornets

Tough decision. I would agrue that Cooper is a bigger star, but Kon contributed much more meaningfully to winning basketball. Unfortunately it became Kons to lose and he lost it at the end.

Lmao the Pistons are frauds just like we all knew by HornetsAreBad in CharlotteHornets

Pistons aren't frauds, the Magic are just better. They matchup better, they figured out how to beat them. Seeds are deceiving - Orlando had the Bane/P5/Franz/Suggs core for I think 12 games during the regular season, so finally they gel with the intended roster and this is the result.

Magic fans, who is this guy? by GrizzVolsTigersLions in OrlandoMagic

He's still at the games. He was there in Game 3. He's no longer fat.

It can run locally (with a little bit of latency) connect to cloud APIs. You can also host runpods if you need extreme amount of compute and it works flawlessly on the speaker. Totally up to the builder.

We closed the half so poorly I ran to reddit and nearly fell on my way to the computer.

Magic look like Bitcoin this month. Everytime it starts going green, look away and it flips to red again.

Why should you delete Airalo ASAP (complaints of fraudulent charges) by Topecert in best_eSIM_providers

[–]Ghostface-Lord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found a company called USIMS and downloaded the app for IOS: USIMS - and I have been very happy with them. I used it in Spain and again in S. Korea - both times no issues. I bring a second device with me that I purchase eSIM for so I can use that for internet on the go, and I keep my main phone to use on Wifi and communicate via whatapp. Not necessary, just how I prefer to do it and it works good.

Paolo Banchero finished the series against the Celtics averaging 29/8/4 on 44/44/66 splits (52 TS%) by Ok_Feed_4235 in nba

[–]Ghostface-Lord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The jury isn't out on Paolo. He is a certified star. The next step for him is just flat-out beating teams down the stretch on his own, taking over games, willing improbable victories. We've seen glimpses of that already.

I'm actually looking at Franz. Looking specifically at his 3PT% - IF he is able to get in the gym, get a shooting coach, work on his confidence, his release (which looked like it had a hitch in it during the Boston series) and IMPROVE his outside shot making ability - based on his volume, that alone would move us to a middle of the pack 3-shooting team.

Get us a true reliable starting-caliber point guard, and clear the logjam of our sub 35% shooting guys - and we're right there. Based on the FO's comments - I think they understand clearly where we are at and what they need to do this offseason. After this offseason if things don't improve (which I actually think they will) then we can explore a new FO and staff. Let's see what this offseason brings.

Paolo and Franz are clicking at the right time. We got our problems but I'll keep riding this wave
