The Magic have the 2nd best record in the east. I look at their roster and don’t see a ton more talent than the Pistons. So what is it about their roster construction or chemistry that makes us look like dog stink in comparison?

    They built a contender with less draft capital and less cap space than Detroit had over the same period lmao

    They have a front office with an eye for talent is the difference.

      They did have draft capital that they gathered from trading Aaron Gordon and Vucevic. They also nailed their picks in Franz and Paulo. Suggs is coming around and is a tough defender. Cole is running the bench mob. All draft picks but with direction.

      Eh, they got assets from: vooch, aaron gordon and fournier. We had negative assets. I hate the pistons too but we gotta stop with the misinformation. However, we theoretically shiuld have as much talents as them now but we are dumpster trash

      Weaver has drafted 5 players who were on the all-rookie team. They haven’t taken the next step. Coaching is usually who’s to blame there.
