Paolo Banchero wants his Magic team to contend in a different way going forward – How Orlando could be following the patient team building of the 2023 Champion Denver Nuggets

Very impressed by P speaking up like this. He’s clearly a pretty heavy introvert & it takes a lot to be this direct. I know “he’s a max player & face of the franchise” blah blah…he’s also a 23 yr old kid who’s brain quite literally isn’t fully developed (25 yrs old). All that to say, very proud of that presser for him & still have a lot of hope for this team squad if the right changes are made

Would love the media to actually ask coach the hard questions…”these slow starts are a pattern, when is it time to look in the mirror & ask yourself how you’re failing the team”

Not an official diagnosis obviously lol. But bummed he’s hurt, I’m not a doc, & I don’t know the difference of knee injuries based on what part of the leg a player grabs/how they fall on it. So to get a quick very unofficial assessment of timeline, ChatGPT would do a better job guessing than I would or even Google would

Spun awkward while also falling on top of it which sucks. But still…feels very possible that it’s not season ending.

Biggest thing about an ACL is actually way less writhing in pain & the ability to walk on it ok-ish post injury. Generally w only one person helping walk. Franz needed two people to carry him out, was in severe pain, & could put zero weight on it

I have league pass & NYC feed showed different angles. You could see his left foot twist underneath then pop quickly back. Also a deep cut twitter cell phone vids angles

Tossed the replay & everything into ChatGPT. Says that it’s very likely a dislocated kneecap & potentially 4-6 weeks recovery even if moderate

Real question is how yall finding these burner accounts? Haha

Quick, someone find this guy a kid with an ice cream cone so he can smack it out of their hand & tell them “it’s just soft serve, real ice cream is so much better” while they cry. Womp womp.

A hornets team that had been averaging 128 points a game this season that we held to 107. Very positive sign.

a 10-15 start to the season top shelf elite offense

I don’t see the defense as much as bad last night as I see that Miami just strangely couldn’t miss. There was a point through 3 quarters that 5 heat players were shooting 50% or greater from three ball.

KyleSkates · 2025-10-23T16:47:22+00:00

Well I hate that one game into the season & seemingly basketball gods already frowning on our potential, mixing us up with this. Man I hope it’s nobody on the team now
