Frustrating to watch us struggle to execute like this.  I don't think the Magic defense even looks particularly good today.  They're giving up a lot of open shots.  We're tossing up bricks and making a lot of unforced errors. 

[Neurotic Guy]

JB does look a little tentative but nice dunk and nice midrange to start the quarter.

It's not. We've had many open looks and bricked them. White had two VERY open looks and missed just now

Wow Al.  That was bad.  Very costly.

Yeah, those two shots by Brown will make all the difference moving forward. He may not have that next year, but he needs to be able to dunk and needs to be able to work from midrange

Good Lord, Horford. A 5 point swing there because you can't hit a bunny.

[Atzar]

Call it close or let them play, but at least be consistent.  That's just not the kind of foul they've been calling this series.

I must be watching a different game.

I think many are not giving the Magic defense its due credit. They're taking away what we usually do well, which is generating good open threes for ourselves. We just simply haven't had a lot of open threes generated.

With as physical as they're allowing them to be, this defense isn't that far off from OKC.

[SCeltic34]

Soft defense.

water is wet

NBA refs are the worst in pro sports

then NFL trash

ICE HOCKEY

MLB are the best

[Phantom255x]

Obviously the refs have been atrocious but we are also playing poorly today.

Missing open shots. Terrible defense some possessions. Not good
