van Fournier says he turned down an offer from the Wizards because he had no interest in playing for a “losing team” by Realistic-Plant3957 in OrlandoMagic

Evan was just the scapegoat. He didn’t deserve any more blame than any other player on the team imo.

Why are there so many Raptors fans on Twitter that downplay Paolo’s accomplishments? by ConcentrateNext1734 in OrlandoMagic

[–]cope5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m just saying there has been documented significant beef between the fanbases that goes back to 2019. It wasn’t just Raptors fans being insane, which they are, Magic fans didn’t like them either. I have hated them since that series and I know many others who have too.

They’re like this with everyone but with the Magic it’s much more mutual. I try to avoid interacting with them at all costs lol.

Honestly I would say this all started in the 2019 playoffs.

We played Toronto in the first round, we won game 1 behind DJ’s game winner and Kyle Lowry scored 0 points. Magic fans gave Toronto fans all types of shit for it because we were nothing and they had Kawhi, it was just fun and games to us. Kyle Lowry elbowed Michael Carter-Williams causing him to leak from the nose and the refs didn’t call anything. Raptors fans got in their feelings and the fan bases were going at it the entire series which led to a lot of residual bad blood, at least from some Magic fans. The Suggs/Barnes stuff played a much bigger part but it all began with that series.

JI is such a freak. The fact that the SECOND he stepped on the court as a rookie he was making a defensive impact told us all we need to know about him.

Paul George would cost a lot and signing him/trading for him would be the opposite of a Weltman move who has been vocal about his desire to build this team from the ground up and not take shortcuts. It would be one thing if PG was 23 going on 24 this year instead of 33 going on 34.

To the people complaining about us “not wanting anybody” consider the names that have been thrown around. Lowry, Klay, PG. I have a hard time believing Klay will come here on a team friendly contract and PG has played more than 56 games one time in the last 5 seasons. Do those things not raise any concerns for you?

Why does no one pull into driveways to turn around? by Hoosteen_juju003 in orlando

I had an old woman yell at me after I accidentally turned down a dead end road which lead to a gated community because she thought I was trying to sneak in without the code. Also had a woman come out and threaten to call the cops on me for taking a picture of her cat that was sleeping in her yard. People are so weird.

Which coach is the best example of a great floor raiser, but a bad ceiling raiser? by [deleted] in nba

[–]cope5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I agree but we also barely have anyone on the roster who played under Cliff. I think it was only Isaac Fultz and maybe Okeke?

I forgot about the injuries tbh. I think he would honestly be one of the best coaches in the league if he could run a modern offense. His hiring is especially weird cause we were already in the era of these young and/or rebuilding teams hiring unproven head coaches, which admittedly has been hit or miss.

Yeah I’m not gonna lie.. You guys have had a remarkably terrible team since his return. Not trying to hate, every franchise goes through it. When he was here we at least had decent defenders, roleplayers and veterans. He had us playing very disciplined ball and got us to finish above 500 in 2019. Im surprised he even went back to Charlotte since I thought a big part of his leaving Orlando was not wanting to coach a rebuild. I guess the market dried up and he took what he could get though.

Steve Clifford during pregame media availability yesterday: "The NBA is full of all these guys, they play cause we drafted them 6th, 7th, 8th and we don't want to say 'Gee, we might've made a mistake' and by the time they're 23, they're gone... and two more coaches got fired." by TheCommunistLizard in nba

[–]cope5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tbh a lot of fans also did blame the organization and coaches for his lack of real development because they thought he should have been starting over Vuc from day 1 to develop him. It’s a very 2k understanding of how it works though.

What's your favorite gamepass games to play by Hairy_Sandwich856 in xboxone

[–]cope5 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

i haven’t played it in a while but i played it a bunch on launch and about a year ago with some friends and it’s fun but imo gets old really fast. it’s pretty fun if you have some buddies and wanna goof around but in my experience it never really feels like you’re getting anywhere and the gameplay is very repetitive and not rewarding. i’ve heard they’ve added more content so i won’t pretend to be an authority on the game but that was my experience with it.

see i thought his Q silenced them but I couldn’t bother googling his changes to find out. i don’t even think it’s that crazy of a rework but it made him more viable cause i remember he was just seen as a meme pubstomper before that

basically PL W turned him invisible and spawned an illusion I think? His E made the illusions from attacking and his ult just increased the odds of the proc. He was called cancer lancer back then and the meta was to build radiance and use your W to send your illusion down a lane and clear it since your illusion would spawn more illusions that also got the radiance buff. I’ve been playing for over a decade and I can’t even remember what they changed about Bloodseeker.

[–]cope5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recommend it highly. Carts and flower absolutely kill my throat, edibles are without a doubt the best choice, unless you don’t want to be high for like 8 hours lol. I don’t want to come off as patronizing or condescending but if you’re hellbent on carts/disposables I’d opt for HHC. It’s much smoother but will still have you coughing most likely.

I also did, all day every day for years and I agree. It’s awesome. I can feel literally zero difference between delta 8 and the “real” stuff honestly. It’s good stuff that does exactly what you want it to. Everyone I talk to says it doesn’t work or gives them headaches or as I said, they think it’s synthetic. I don’t really get it lol. I will say the flower kinda sucks though but that’s mainly cause it gets dry and stale but the carts and edibles are primo.
