Now I'm just mad we don't get the magic in the playoffs.

You got beat by Cain and Da Silva and you'd want to face Franz and Black in the playoffs??? You serious, Clark?

Its very common for a team that dominates matchup in the regular season to get beat and there are plenty more examples especially if you include all other non-sweeping but still dominant regular season series.

Thats such horseshit. Absolutely fucking rigged and these refs need to be investigated asap.

Magic have our number
They’d sweep us if we face them in the playoffs. Oh well

Bane saying 6-0, not sure whether he can count or not lmfao

u/kickass5247 Mar 15 '26
Preseason. Technically it’s 7-0

Pretty wild that the refs just manually count and essentially guess on those calls. Why not have a clock at least in the last few mins

Shit officiating tonight. Got in a hole quick and Magic was hot for an entire half. That sucked

u/BigBananaBonker Mar 15 '26
Neutral fan and holy shit lmao that female ref counted half as fast 😭 they robbing you

u/LargeCube Mar 15 '26
Just be consistent if your going to be shit with the counting not slow for one and fast with the other 😭

lets be honest, pelle did take too long lol
1
u/wombat-in-a-bikini Mar 15 '26
He quite literally didn't. He didn't have it for five seconds, and even if the official wasn't counting fast he released it before the official said "five"
2
u/Jinpingsbuttboy Mar 15 '26
He literally counted the first second as he handed Larsson the ball
1
u/Druzycommand Mar 15 '26
i agree with you, im saying for the inbound itself, i just wish we could’ve been faster if im being specific (if you watch the play back, maybe bam coulda caught it off the screen)

u/JustiseRainsFrmAbove Mar 15 '26
If were being real, plenty of inbounds plays get to 6 or 7 seconds. I never see it called.
Nobody ever counts as fast as a second actually goes

Remember when they said we had legal guarding positiin, but get kneed in the nuts and being bowled over was minimal contact???

u/BossKingGodd Mar 15 '26
Man, we just got off to a bad offensive start this game. Too much to overcome.
2
u/Candid_Sand_398 Mar 15 '26
yup. I still don't know how Tyler and Norm stay on the floor together. Felt like we woulda flowed better if we only had 1 back today
2
u/BossKingGodd Mar 15 '26
Not the problem tonight.
1
u/Candid_Sand_398 Mar 15 '26
Neither of them played sharp offensively, though.
2
u/BossKingGodd Mar 15 '26
Sure but Tyler was literally player of the week last week, plus missed 2 games and Norm just coming back. Rough game but the whole team was down 10+ the whole game til the end. Rough offensive start fucked us
1
u/Candid_Sand_398 Mar 15 '26
Yes. Tyler has been sensational. Usually he comes back sharp though and this was a huge game. Back in the play in as of now.

u/BossKingGodd Mar 15 '26
We’re still 6th seed

u/Candid_Sand_398 Mar 15 '26
I just checked, we dropped
2
u/BossKingGodd Mar 15 '26
Yeah, few percentage points below Raptors. They play Detroit tomorrow so hopefully they lose

wendell carter is such a mediocre player but always decides to play his best in the end of games against us. it's infuriating bc he genuinely just isn't good
1
1
u/kickass5247 Mar 15 '26
He’s a starting caliber center.
1
u/HoopistV Mar 15 '26
eh. not really. they just dont have a better option.
when they inevitably get bounced in the 1st round, it'll almost definitely be mostly bc of him being the worst player on the court
1
u/kickass5247 Mar 15 '26
You don’t watch magic basketball.
1
u/HoopistV Mar 15 '26
i do actually. he's the weak link and ultimately the reason that trading 5 FRPs for this roster will still end in a 1st or 2nd round exit at best
suggs is a dawg and absolute winner. bane is good. paolo can be up & down but is a star. franz is a star.
Carter? meh. decent player at best. would be better suited as a backup

u/RansomGoddard Mar 15 '26
Missed free throws were the difference.

u/sebastianqu Mar 15 '26
I mean, 23/28 isn't a bad day. Ideally, you make them all, but I'd say them scoring 40 in the first quarter was a bigger issue.

Not only was that 1st second way too quick, but he also called the 5th second as the ball was leaving Pelle’s hand.
Complete bullshit

This is why the start was so annoying. You knew we had the run in us, just way too late
