Again - JB got bailed out by the refs, but trying to go one on three with his shaky dribble 

[Who]

Magic up 20 on the Bucks.

Magic gonna put up 120+ on MIL. Like I said, MIL's defense is atrocious

i think this is becoming his signature move.

The Jruth!

I remember when Drew Carter first blurted that out, dead air followed. Scal probably wasn’t sure if he liked it or not. Cool nickname though for Jrue!

Scal can't handle the Jruth!

And Lillard is missing his second straight game with a calf issue, too, right? Not a good start to the year for them.

up by  9 at the half. not spectacular, but good.

[SCeltic34]

Allowed just 20 points that quarter.  Yup I'm happy with that.

Cut down on the turnovers and we're good.

[Silas]

Nice half thanks to JT.

It’s really frustrating when JB settles for the stepback three when he’s being guarded one on one and yet opts to go hard when there are 3 guys defending him.

[Who]

Toronto do not look a threat.

Looks like a team they gave their best shot in Q1 and is gradually getting worse throughout. Their offense just isn't good enough to keep up that pressure. Too limited. Too much bad shooting. Too much one-on-one play. Too many contested shots. Too many contested midrange shots.

Yep. Portis is honestly their only good bench player too. Crowder has remained awful there.

Nice half thanks to JT.

He's a +19 in a 9 point game at half. He helped build the big, double-digit lead with the JT, Jrue, bench lineup. Then he went out and the lead was cut to 4, and he then came back in and helped build the lead back up to 9.

I don't think people realize how insane JT's +/- and on/off numbers are. Truly superstar level impact on winning out there, even on a loaded superteam.
