Banchero the only guy creating anything for Orlando but he has 7 of their 10 turnovers.

He has their only 8pts in the last 5min of Q3. Plus two assists on ORL's two threes early in the Q3. A Suggs dunk in the first minute or two is the only basket Banchero hasn't played a part in Q3.

Looks like the Magic coach in benching Cole Anthony here after he got burned multiple times by Mobley on switches in Q2. Going with Fultz at PG instead. A big defensive guard who will be tougher for Mobley to abuse in the post on switches.

Edit: Nevermind. He is in now.

A 13-2 Cavs run final 4min. In firm control now.

Magic have nothing going offensively.

11-0 Magic run to get it back to single digits after Cleveland built a 20pt lead.

Still time. They are making it interesting again.

I had to mute the game for a couple reasons. A. This broadcasting team is atrocious. B. I simply can’t risk hearing the ‘no flex zone’ Wingstop commercial even one more time.

C Anthony = 0-7 FGA
Suggs = 3-13 FGA
G Harris = 0-5 FGA
Fultz = 0-4 FGA
Ingles = 0-2 FGA

Combined = 3-31 FGA

Suggs is their only guard to make a field goal.

I'm not the biggest Franz Wagner guy.  Soft.  Orlando gave up two points on an offensive rebound because Franz wasn't willing to take the hit (and likely the foul) grabbing a contested loose ball he was closest to.

Orlando should give Caleb Houstan a go. He shot the 3 well for them at the SG spot this year. They need a guard who can make an open shot.

That’s a crazy stat. They’ll certainly need to improve that guard spot in free agency this off-season. I’m sure they’ll be looking at guys like Malik monk, Klay Thompson, Gary Trent and others.

Mitchell is the best offensive player in this series and it's not close.  Look how easily he gets looks compared to all the work Banchero has to do to find a shot.

Hard not to love Mitchell (unless he's playing the Celtics lol)

I can’t believe Orlando even managed to score 83 points. That was a fugly affair.
