Talked 2 @Orlando_Magic GM O.Smith before game. He said Magic are still working hard to sway @DwightHoward feelings. Thinks still a chance.

Fire SVG. I'm tired of the same old isht.

I just don't get why we're running the same offense year after year when it doesn't seem to be working. We're so predictable it's disgusting.

How come we didn't see any of the rookies tonight? If we're going to be beat that badly, at least let us see what our future might look like. Maybe we have a stud sitting on the bench. I don't know; it's at least worth a try.

P.S. Ryan should start. Big fat baby was as bad as he was in Boston. Wafer showed signs of life. Dwight is dogging us (the dude is mentally checked out).

My goodness I'm tired of people saying Stan's system is the problem.
"Yeah let's create an offense with people slashing, dunking and ISOs!!!"
You give Stan some decent talent with guys who can create their own shot, cut to the rim and the system will change.
If all you want is more mid range shots, well, stats disagree.

I agree with the rest though. Offense flows better with Ryan in the game. Dwight seems uninterested.

Good to hear. Scoring 85 points with both our captains going 2-19 or something is fine by me. The first quarter looked like we had an excellent half court offense. It was more than just regular pick and rolls and I enjoyed seeing that.
I look forward to seeing those rookies making every shot like that on our court.
I'm pretty confident we'll win the next game.

Any news on Hedo's injury? He actually looked good out there prior to the hip injury. He was facilitating the ball well. We were in the game until he went out then all hell broke loose.

Jameer didn't look good at all. He really is key if we are going to have a breakout season. SO goes Jameer, so goes the Magic. We need him back 100%, otherwise a big drop in production by Jameer could mean a disastrous season. I've always thought that the Magic is one great PG away from the championship.

Anderson looked great, a diamond in the rough. J. Rich started well, just has to continue playing well throughout the ENTIRE game.

We are still in dire need of a legit backup center.

Duhon as second unit PG -- can we just try Liggins please? Slow Jameer and slow Duhon is just killing our mojo.

Preseason game 1 is just preseason. No need to panic yet, but def wish we looked better than we did tonight. Miami's second unit took us out. That's embarrassing.

I'm hoping SVG played Doodoo as a do or die situation as a prelude to trying somebody else out.

[more vids please ]

I don't buy that anymore. When in a hole, our offense is predictable as hell. I see more twists and tweaks in the WNBA. It's not a player talent-level issue...

More importantly: there should be a military law for the ball to be in Howard's hands.
When he asks for it, pass it, i don't care who you are or if he's at the halfcourt triple-teamed.

We can't be all "our players are the worst in the league" and give our all-nbaer future HOFer the ball 10 times (and then late...) in 24 minutes.

Come on...

Was the same old same we have become used to over last year. Predictable offense. Stan needs to change the offense strategy. The thing that pissed me off the most was the fact that we were not looking to push the ball and try and get the fastbreak going. If we let the other team get back and set in defense they can completely control our offense. Need to get the opponents off balance and that will open up the three point shooters and even Dwight more, which there were so many occasions that our players Jameer and Anderson to name a couple missed Dwight open and in position.

Give stan players with different skill sets and he'll set up a different strategy.

Nah dude, SVG should force them to take mid-range jumpers and drive to hole.

It'll work, trust me.
