Henry may not get that option picked up. Dude's head just isn't in this game, despite his gut bringing it hard. Vasquez's deficiency in terms terms of lateral movement is highlighted. Our frontcourt strength is clear, but it clearly not enough. Remember, this Magic team is supposed to be bottom 10 after getting Dwighted. No team is going to put the pedal to the metal during preseason, but we're still both going 80%, so it's a fair look in terms of the individual efforts. The Hornets may gel, but there old weaknesses are there. Aminu can't get good minutes when the team is down, despite sweet haircut. Lopez is doing fine. Is anything really happening of note?

Way too much of the offense is running through Lopez. Too much stuff at the top of the key for him and WAY too many postups. Im assuming they're just trying to diagnose where he's at offensively. He clearly has zero post game though.

Not really. I want to really pay attention to the growth, game by game during this preseason.

You and me both. This is exactly what should be scrutinized, not wins or losses. Those don't matter at this point except in their teaching value.

Don't let the lowish score by Orlando make you think we are doing well on defense. We are wild on defense: good plays, bad plays. Our offense turning the ball over hasn't helped. We've been dry on offense, even drier than you may expect. The individual effort is there, but not the achievement. It's been a game of runs, as most, and we've been staring at Orlando hind quarters from el tipo.

Rivers has looked good. Looks like he can get to the FT line whenever he wants
