The Orlando magic so far:

  • 1st in DRTG
  • 3rd in REB%
  • 6th in OREBs per 100 possessions
  • 3rd in steals per 100 possessions
  • 4th in opponent points in the paint per 100
  • 7th in opponent 3PM and 3PT%
  • 2nd in transition points allowed

Looking at these metrics, it’s not surprising the lakers struggled so much with them. I hope they can keep it up. It would be great to see another eastern conference contender emerge

    That’s what playing Rockets and then Blazers do for you

    With how huge everyone is, that team has a ton of defensive upside.

    I think the shooting/scoring efficiency will be an issue, but it’s not like they are completely devoid of shooting/scoring either.
