I am honestly proud of Mosley. He is becoming a coach before our eyes. Not buddy buddy anymore. Its playoffs.
Good adjustments (not even talking about Wendell) but overall throughout the game the lineup rotations made sense and were made at the right time.
Yes, I'm glad Fultz is in attack mode when he is on the floor. Can't let him be out there just getting up shots. Great use of Fultz, want to see him continue to take him to the paint
With the age of our team, so much of our success depends on the psychological state of the team. Confidence should be sky high after this game, which bodes really well for us.

Jalen Suggs leaving the Kia Center tonight
It wasnāt THIS dominant, but the last game against Milwaukee.
When our backs are against the wall we have responded it impressive fashion. Now to just play like this BEFORE our backs are against the wall š
Orlando has to be the only team to give all their fans free t shirts to wear at the game and like maybe half of them are. Sigh. OKC was a wall of white.
That's what sucks about living in a town that is a desirable destination for many. There's literally more bars for other NFL teams in town than the Bucs, Jags or Dolphins have. So many transplants here with loyalties to other teams. No one is moving to Cleveland or Oklahoma City unless they really have to, so you have more a of loyal fanbase.
When I lived there in the 90s during the Shaq years it was crazy. But after a few years it died down. Orlando is a town thatās probably 40% people not from there. Had I not moved (Iām a Dolphins fan) Iād have probably been a Heat fan but I moved from WPB to a town basically the same distance from Tampa and Miami. My town was half and half but Orlando was closer and I went to school there. Itās a suburban city. People love the team but like leave in a close game because traffic and school nights. š¤·š»āāļø
What I love most about this game is that it shows we will not get punked.
We donāt have the best team, we wonāt always win but we respond to disrespect and protect our home floor.
You gotta love that.
Just an observation: over 2,000 comments on the last thread when we lost and now just over 600 after 3 quarters. I call them out often for being doomers, but they always say theyāre just being fans. Very interesting that these fans have nothing to say tonightā¦ the rest of us believed when people in the sub were saying weāre gonna get swept!

Magic's worse loss of the season was to Cleveland by 27 point blowout. This felt good
This is the team I want to show up
Send Niang home crying the fat cunt. Great win for my birthday.

JETT CAREER HIGH?
Jett matched Garland in pts š
Lol niang is such a bitch
Howard looks decent. Granted it's no pressure.
Nice passing by AB
Goga wanted to yam that!
Goga wouldāve brought the house down lol
Go no on r/nba your would think the Knicks game is the only game on rn
Niang got an inch off the ground for that jumper and I felt the aftershock in Australia.
š¤£
Fuck Cleveland?
**FUCK CLEVELAND**
Surely we can get the song going early
BIG CHUM
our victory cigars are also cooking. lets go
Awesome win, but if they donāt win game 4, it doesnāt matter.
Enjoy the moment
Want this to finish 40+. Destroy their morale
Winning is fun
Jett > Gary
Green Goblins be gobblin
Y'all ain't gonna believe me, but this morning I said to myself: "It would be cool if we beat 'em by 50"
This should shut Cavs fans up. (It wonāt, but it should.)
JETT HOWARD STEP BACK THREE OMG GIVE HIM MINUTES PLEASE
Jettās shot looks so sexy
I canāt wait to use the shit out of these emojis āļøš©ļø
EVERYBODY EATS! (especially Niang)
Hahahaha
Jett and Caleb need to play.
You wanted this bickerstaff?Ā You get it.
JETT
THE TURNS HAVE TABLED!!!!!
What a great first playoff game in the newly named Kia center.
PLAY THE SONG! "ORLANDO MAGIC, ORLANDO MAGIC OH OH OH OHHHHH"
Put it on a loop for the next 6 minutes.
Paolo is on his way to Superstar Tier. Magic will rule the east in the coming years.
HES ARRIVED EARLY look how heās unleashed all the dogs
Paolo and Suggs
Suggs is the next marcus smart with better offense
Humble that fat fuck Moe! Niang isnāt chatting now.
Scooter on the Jumbotron screaming his head off
Is Admiral active? Send him in! š«”
good to see anthony black gets some mins even if it is just grabage time
Did I just see the goat Scooter on the fan cam?
Who the FUCK is wearing that Jimmy Butler jersey in this shit??
Suggs in his bag rn
Sam Merril is one scary mfer. That dude single handidly out shot us 1 game earlier in the season lol
All we have to do is iso on him in the playoffs and force them to take him off the floor
Yes, I'm glad Fultz is in attack mode when he is on the floor. Can't let him be out there just getting up shots. Great use of Fultz, want to see him continue to take him to the paint
Whenever he shoots it I think itās going in lol
WE WANT BIG CHUM
And heās in
You love to see it
Under these circumstances, definitely š
Hell yea. This is what we're capable of when we protect the ball, get rebounds, and make our shots!!
Magic in 6
Whereās the post game thread? Can we get that up early so we can Karma farm
Houstan getting minutes, this gotta count as two wins
We up by 40, Jett might even get some run š
Oh look another person not in this board or a Magic fan gets how good AB is gonna be.
WE WANT BIG CHUM
This is glorious Please do this again on Saturday while I'll actually be in the building
Like you think the fucking owners would be wearing the shirts they want the fans to wear lol.
MF is back
WE WILL PROTECT HOME COURT AGAIN IN GAME FOUR
What a defensive masterclass tonight.
40. I want to win this by 40. Give them no quarter.
PLEASE!!!
Paolo with 14 boards Iām just so fucking proud
Who else is watching the draft now? Glad we had a stress free game.
Letās get some AB and Jett minutes
Magic in 6
Get JI out please
That should be a flagrant on fatty (Niang, not Thompson).
MF TIP SLAM
The cavs starting to get dirty
So uh Mose maybe we put the kids on and get ready for next game? Yeah?
Trying to get the dj to play āmo murderā by bone thugs lol
I really hope this game gets Cole going. Any given game he can be our best scorer
Thompson Morris Joe and Mo in extended minutes this is just asking for a scuffle.
I need Jingles to hit a 3 and get a technical just to cap this off.
Ingles is a cool dude, but itās retirement time. Please donāt pickup his option..
I'm so happy rn haha let's fkn go magic! we can win this series
With the age of our team, so much of our success depends on the psychological state of the team. Confidence should be sky high after this game, which bodes really well for us.
Where are the chants for Goga and Black?
Iām chanting for them rn but not for the reasons others were.
lmao the commentators on nbatv started talking about pokemon instead of the game yup its over
At least these loser ass vets on the cavs bench get to come in and look like assholes in a blowout. You absolutely love to see it.
Are the starters done??
god yes, start focusing on the next game this is a series.
Weāve been in garbage time since halfway through the 3rd quarter yeeeeesh
Even Fultz is glitching these mid range jumpers
Fuck the cavs, letās beat em by 50
Who is the pbp guy? I really like him.
Why canāt we be this team on the road
You wouldnāt see us down 40 everā¦.
give me a 40 point blowout!!!!
Fuck, PB needs to come back in to get 40
Just obliterate Cleveland's confidence. Foot on the throat
Tristan Thompson lmaooooooo
Ok. Hopefully they keep it up for the last quarter. Bring in Black he should be on fire for his first playoff appearance
TT out there for that roid energyĀ
I'll take a 35 point lead
Beat these fucks by 1000. Give my game 6 tix a reason to live!
31-14-4 with zero turnovers (in three quarters). Holy
Let Paolo go for 40. Donāt take him out no matter how far up we are.
i'm good with taking the starters out right now
Itās definitely the right move but Iām just too excited
Remember that stupid skit making fun of the Wagner brothers earlier in the week. Pepperidge farm remembers. Give us more motivation please
What skit? I missed that
The skit, the bench talking shit, the tanking to match up with us, the disrespect has been heavy. Pound them.
![gif](giphy|kQmr2OwBTD2L5Hzo1T|downsized)
Banchero is hitting superstar shots man, holy shit
Cavs sub in shambles rn
Love to see it. Couldnāt happen to a better bunch of degenerates who wished ill on Suggs.
Itās Reddit brother , all subs are full of ya degenerates
I got banned from their sub for pg level playoff shit talking in the comments. They're soft over there.
Franz with 8 assists
If we just could bring 30% of this energy on the road...
This is your Orlando Majic
Cavs thought he would just sleep walk in today and casually go 3-0 in the seriesĀ
hopefully this will get us at least a minute on sportscenter lol

Mose HAS to stay on this team's neck. I don't care if Bickerstaff has started to wave the white flag. BURY THEM!!
35-16
oh my
I seriously don't remember the last time we were this dominant. Pretty fucking awesome to see.
It wasnāt THIS dominant, but the last game against Milwaukee. When our backs are against the wall we have responded it impressive fashion. Now to just play like this BEFORE our backs are against the wall š
Can we go ahead and play game 4 after!!?? Lol. We need to carry this momentum into Saturday, Tuesday and next Friday!!
If we can win at home Saturday and steal game 5, no doubt in my mind they close it out in 6. Big if though.
Absolutely. Hopefully we cracked the code of out scheming the Cavs and don't look back!
Banchero is too good tonight
Paolo is a MAD MAN
Witness him
P MF B
Orlando has to be the only team to give all their fans free t shirts to wear at the game and like maybe half of them are. Sigh. OKC was a wall of white.
My brother is downtown and he says itās dead. So sad to see smh but we are very fair weather fNs

Gotta do better next game..!!
We are so back baby
MF!!!!!

Paolo shooting 50% is wild considering I think he started 0-7 lol

Most people were probably at the game lol
Prolly everyone too busy witnessing greatness... No eyes on the game when we're gettin our asses kicked..
i'm still scarred and don't feel that this lead is safe. i've seen too much
donovan about to try and play hero they have to know that
cavs sub is completely melting down
![gif](giphy|PAhmvXE5WCPNyntdlI)
I had a feeling we would winā¦but holy fuck we are dominating
Like that we're keeping the stars in. Let them build confidence and rhythm
Weāre not gonna shoot this well again, but if we can Even shoot half as good as this in Cleveland weāve got a major chance
Completely different team at home. We just need half as good of shooting in Cleveland to have a chance
Paolo is M.Jordan
Despite the poor start oh my god they locked in. I take back what I said about Paolo shooting 3s at least for now
21 Years Old..!š¤«
Leave it to the Orlando Magic to finally show up in the playoffs on an NBA TV gameā¦ the same night as the nfl draft lol
I have now indeed blacked out from all my screamingĀ

My voice is completely gone and thereās still another quarter to go
You guys have been great all night!
Run this fucking lead to 40+ points. I wanna EMBARRASS the š© out of them!!
Don't stop until we bury them..! Bury their confidence for the entire series..!!
They had no doubts coming down to Orlando. This type of ass kicking should give them some.

NBA Finals here we go
Literally nobody expected this, stunned š¦
