Magic on fire early. If Wendell Carter is making 3s gone be a long night

It's wild to see the Hornet's offense just get shut down like they have been so far. Orlando is just on another level defensively right now.

Not sure they can keep it up the whole game though.

Steph gonna drop 40+ in a Warriors win. OKC better be careful.

For as flashy as he is, Lamelo just isn’t a winning player. He’s a better, taller Trae Young with the same results.

He needs to create more for Miller and Knueppel but he turns into a ball hog

Watch his absolutely absurd footwork on some of his 3’s, it’s a miracle some of them go in

If Hornets traded him for a lesser “big name” but a good creator PG and a good Center they’d take a step forward imo. He’s peaked, we know who he is at this point. Kon and Miller need to be the primary scorers, they are both capable of an efficient 25+ PPG

Magic clearly threw the 7 seed game to get the 8 seed

What an embarrassment for Charlotte.

Bro kick his arse out. That’s a borderline punch and Charlotte doesn’t get the benefit of a doubt.

Orlando is dominating tonight, but I'd be shocked if they won a series. Charlotte would have at least had an opportunity to get hot and make a run.

Lamelo will never win anything of relevance

Probably spent the last 48 hrs liking posts on twitter that called Nick Wright a clown and forgot they had a game.

Amazon’s theme song is too repetitive.

LOL at the “Frank Gay Services” ad flashing in the arena

This clearly gave Orlando momentum early in the game. They were allowed to mug and play more physical than the Hornets. But Charlotte forgot how to rotate and motion for their shooters.

I think Steph has one more run in them. Suns would be a better matchup for OKC though.

Next season would be more realistic for a Warrior's run. No Butler or Moody, and the other injuries to important depth players make it incredibly unlikely they make any sort of real push this year.

Would love to see the Warriors punk Dillon Brooks again, though. What a frickin' tool.
