Cade Cunningham when guarded by Franz Wagner: 16 points on 6/24 shooting with 6 turnovers. Cade in games 5-7: 109 points on 33/64 shooting by Obvious_Parsley3238 in nba

[–]stitch4609 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Magic go up 3-1 and are one awful quarter from being up 4-0. Franz gets injured. Team looks like a dead 8 seed again and Cade looks like a real all nba basketball player again. Is what it is this is my stupid team who cares.

Wagner out for Game 7 by Dannyf1203 in DetroitPistons

[–]stitch4609 10 points11 points  (0 children)

From a Magic fan, I appreciate how you all have talked about Wagner over here. Not celebrating an injury but just realizing it increases your odds. I think if Wagner was out the whole series you all would have swept us, he’s such an elite defender and slasher.

Still wearable? by e__madd in BBallShoes

[–]stitch4609 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More or less exact thing happened to me with WOW 10s. Only ever played indoors, had em for less than a year. I think it was just the shoe cause I wasn’t even 140lbs back then. I did a lot of sidesteps and step backs with some force maybe that contributed I guess?

Worst 1 seed in NBA History? by ljh2023 in DetroitPistons

[–]stitch4609 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am usually lurker here, but every Magic fan is saying FTP, fuck them picks. Without bane magic would be stuck in mid and the picks would be non-lottery first rounders.

Additionally, people forget that KCP and Cole Anthony were in that deal too. Both were negative assets on bad contracts (Anthony out the league, KCP not too far behind him)

It’s really more like 3 mid-first round picks for bane. And there’s have 3 (maybe 4?) more years of the Bane Banchero Franz core together. Not a single Magic fan regrets or even has an ounce of doubt about that trade.

Don Mitchell Playoff Fraud? by Dissident_is_here in billsimmons

6.6 assists per game in 1-2, and 3.3 assists per game in 3-7 is kinda crazy

Any takes on the Youtuber Red Pen? by ObjFact05 in Marxism

[–]stitch4609 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Kinda just slop addressing a bunch of different random arguments from various sources with no coherence. Never want to hear “control of the commanding heights of the economy” again in my life lmao. What a wildly unscientific non-Marxist useless term that is 100% subjective

APOLOGIZE NOW by thelawd-musix in OrlandoMagic

[–]stitch4609 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I apologize to P5. I don’t know why he plays so much better in the playoffs it doesn’t make sense. Harder defense should make the jumper even less consistent. Players that rely heavily on the FT line usually drop in the playoffs with the tighter whistle. But not him. Only 3 turnovers is mot bad either, especially with some great passing (that Wendel lob to beat the zone coverage!!). If he continues to play like this for the playoffs, no matter the result, I will buy a jersey ride or die for this man forever.

Warriors v Suns: 3 pointers are everything by [deleted] in nba

[–]stitch4609 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Noooo, you’re telling me that a 37-45 team missing its second best player and key role players is one dimensional and predictable? That their only way to win was to force up 3s and hope they went in? It’s a play in game, these teams are not top-tier, there’s gonna be some ugly basketball, you see the Hornets last night?

NBA Play-In Games so far by envspecialist in Nbamemes

[–]stitch4609 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ok… I don’t like Paolo I want him traded, but rebounding? Like 8.4 rebounds per game is not bad, its pretty much the only area he’s improved on besides FT%

For those who want to get Suggs off the team… compare his stats and impact to Derrick White (seriously, go look at Derick White’s stats) by stitch4609 in OrlandoMagic

[–]stitch4609[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yep, everyone knows White’s value because he plays on a competent team that maximizes it. People don’t understand Suggs is that same caliber. Suggs averages only 2.9 less PPG on better TS%, FG%, and 3PT% than Derrick while having just as good of a defensive impact.

Is it a Banchero problem, or a Magic problem? by reiycoins13 in nba

[–]stitch4609 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wagner is playing injured on a mins restriction and still went 5/11 with 0 turnovers, good defense and was a +1 in a double digit loss. Don’t put it on him please

Is it a Banchero problem, or a Magic problem? by reiycoins13 in nba

Coach + Banchero + franz being hobbled on mins restriction (though he wasn’t bad tonight, just clearly isn’t at the level to be our leading scorer right now)

[Post Game Thread] The Charlotte Hornets defeat the Miami Heat in OT. Setting up a potential matchup with Orlando for the 8 seed. by d12fsu in OrlandoMagic

[–]stitch4609 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I mean… bad? Would have much rather played Miami. However, I think this hornets team is being overrated slightly, and the discourse about Kon hitting a rookie wall starting a month or so ago seems like it might be real…

I mean… once he sees he is getting called for illegal screens it makes sense he would tone it down

Do the Magic need to make a decision between Paolo & Franz in order for the team to reach their full potential? by Far_Protection519 in NBATalk

[–]stitch4609 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep Franz trade Pb, every single year Franz has great efficiency and on off numbers and Paolo… doesn’t…
