Really love what Windler brought to the table tonight…

Good energies on the bench I felt

Okoro simply doesn't have the explosion needed to be a good finisher at his size. He just doesn't. It's disappointing, but it is what it is.

He's more likely to become a decent 3 pt shooter than a good finisher.

He needs to develop a floater. Trying to throw it down on 7-footers like Robin Lopez is only going to get him hurt or embarassed, or both.

Okoro needs a lot things but the frustrating thing is they are simple. Like you said, practice a floater. The other would be a bank shot from the bottom of the key. He always goes for a strong dunk or lay up and everyone knows it. They can just wait for him to run them over for a offensive foul (which happens at least once a game). If he used a floater or bank shot from short distance, it would keep the offensive fouls down.

But we are talking about Okoro here. He would probably push the floater off the shot clock and the bank shot would be like a bank pass to Cedi at the 3-point line….

Sucks Sexton got hurt, I really think he was going to find his fit with this team this season. I saw it at the begining of the season. His scoring would be nice right now.

Still think SexLand had to get broken up, one way or another. Sad that it had to be THIS way. I hope that Sexton is able to cash in on his skills and his work ethic, but it looks like it could start with him being Vinny the Microwave, off the bench next year. I think he DESERVES better than that, but I also hope that our line-up stabilizes this year, at the 1, 2, 4, and 5, with the 3 coming from the draft or a trade, in the off-season.

This Orlando team is straight ass. We needed to blow them away. We would do that if our bench didn't shoot 6 out of 26. We need better effort in the upcoming games.

Every Orlando starter scored in double digits. That is how teams without legitimate superstars win, but the Cavs still won relatively convincingly.

The Magic are 26 points per 100 possessions better with Cole Anthony on the floor and he was out last night. If he played this could easily have been a Cavs' loss.

We need Rubio to get his mojo back. His last four games have been awful from a shooting standpoint; 4-15, 4-12, 5-20, 1-6 = 14-for-53.

Okoro is shooting 32% overall and 19% on 3's in November. Ugh.

E-gad. That’s not a shooting guard.

I call him a non-shooting guard, but i wont bag on Okoro's offense rightnow, he is looking better the last couple of games. At 20, all i want is growth.
