Franz is playing in the Olympics the entire summer.

I fear he will have another season of missed development, limping into the season with his best basketball behind him like he did this year.


I hope he reconsiders that. Weltman and Parker should at least try to talk him out of it.

He’s playing in the Olympics.

He can do both. The Olympics is a smaller tournament than the world cup, time-wise. And it's in France instead of east-asia. Close to home for Franz and Moe.

Franz will look a lot better with an actual playmaker next to him and better spacing.

We shouldn't overreact to one game but I am sure we will, that's what thia board does.

Outscored 63-41 in the 2nd. Franny with a turd for the ages. 1-15. One for **** fifteen. At least he played really **** defense too.

Great season. Proud of the team.

Now the real work begins Weltman.

Figure it out. No excuses.

If I'm Weltman, I'm keeping a boxscore sheet of this game when Franz' and Suggs' agents come looking to get overpaid. I love both but the FO can't mismanage cap space.

Nah, that's a crazy take

They are if you consider them part of our core ‘big 3’ like many on here believe. Paolo showed up, these 2 clowns embarrassed themselves on national television for the world to see.

We have a superstar and a bunch of defects.

Mobley is his kriptonite, Cavs was his worst opponent during the season. He will be better.

Oh well, good season guys. Loved experiencing that season, hate the way it ended.

The future is bright.

Can someone design some kind of post-game thread? I feel like we need it for therapy

Omg calm down, all this will be addressed in the offseason

That’s what we were all saying last season. Welthead has been here 7 years and has yet to add a shooter. He ran back Markelle Fultz and Gary Harris. No guard on this roster averaged more than 12 ppg or more than 3 apg. It’s not rocket science.



lol this is only 3 years into a rebuild, the Magic weren’t even supposed to be here. They have offseason to fix the perimeter especially with the cap space they have and assets. If it is not corrected then I would be upset. But until then people really need to calm down.

It's not one game and even if it is, it was the biggest one in his NBA career...

Job #1 is trying to convince Wagner to take the summer off imo.
