Stop Sleeping On Orlando! Thanks For Watching!🔥

[@NickWonderworker]

Completely agree, Orlando are on the cusp of something really good. I honestly think the X-Factor is Jonathan Isaac, dude is a DPOY waiting to happen, if (and it's a big if) he can stay healthy and continue to increase his minutes, combined with the young stars on the team taking that next step they are going to be a force.

[@AlexaNichols-ll2ix]

Absolutely! They swarm passing lanes and defensive switches to be so young are on point!

[@thestigforu]

This is the BIGGEST joke I have ever heard Isaac will NEVER win a DPOY and should have been let go but the morons who are running the organisation gifted him a bigger contract to constantly be in the medical room

[@thestigforu]

@@thestigforu your ignorance is astounding. Atlanta? lmfao

[@thestigforu]

@@EasyRidingWithUncleDoc the ONLY reason Atlanta didn't do better last season was because Dejounte Murray and Trae Young are both ball handlers and want the ball in their hands all the time. Watch Atlanta be an amazing team with Trae and Rissacher that is a dangerous tandem

[@SkywalkersFather171]

One of the best, honest, and realistic analysis breakdowns I've seen of the Magic. Absolutely spot on. Very impressive coming from an outsiders perspective.

[@DeHave]

Thank you so much! I’m really happy to hear that, the highest form of compliment that I can get is from another fanbase saying I did okay with their team. That’s a major confidence boost for me lol 🙏🏻 your team is absolutely going places and I think it’s gonna be quicker than people think! Thanks again for the feedback, you’re a legend 🙏🏻🔥

[@thestigforu]

realistic??? This moron is saying that people should NOT sleep on one of the WORST organisations in all of basketball. The ONLY reason Orlando did anything is because Banchero was an All Star and F Wagner had a good season as well. If I am the coach of any other team I am double teaming either Banchero or F Wagner (whoever has the ball) and saying "ok beat us"

[@davidcarlos4350]

Your analysis is spot on, im a little biased. But to your point, they slammed the offseason… they brought back chemistry aaaaand got better

100% agree with you about KCP. We're in a great position because we don't have any outrageous contracts. Bunch of young bucks where the only way is up. These lads are thriving off each others energy & it's absolutely wholesome to see. JI has always been my guy. Such bad luck with injuries. Here's hoping he stays healthy. Let's Go Magic 💙

[@DeHave]

That’s great to hear! I’m really hoping it goes well for you and your team! Good luck next season! 🙏🏻

Don't have outrageous contracts??? WTF are you smoking we have at least 3 outrageous contracts for garbage that other teams don't want (Isaac, KCP and M Wagner)

[@anthonyvelez1022]

GOOO MAGIC 💯 💯

[@DeHave]

Best of luck to you and your team! 🙏🏻🔥

[@tykemorris]

I can't disagree with anything you said. I do think they want Fultz back but at a reduced contract. Jonathan Isaac will get more minutes. I see more than 50 wins and home court in the first round, which will mean a series win.

[@halftime814]

Even tho your not a magic fan you definitely know basketball u pretty much hit every nail on the head with this video, most these casuals I watch got magic being a play in team because they didn't make any fancy moves and going off on players stats from last season like no one on the team going to get better we were the 4 youngest team in the league. .lol

[@DeHave]

Absolutely true it’s almost unbelievable how your team has been covered! I said this late in the video but keeping your best players long term is viewed as "boring" or maybe not headline worthy for a lot of people, but not only is it important, it’s essential to winning 😂 I’ll never understand how securing your future core like the Magic have isn’t seen as a blockbuster move just like a free agent or trade. Totally agree again with everything you said and I’m really happy you enjoyed the video, hopefully I could do your team some justice! 🙏🏻

[@thestigforu]

KCP is garbage, Isaac is garbage. The ONLY thing that is possibly accurate is that Banchero will have a great season

[@thestigforu]

​@@DeHavekeeping our garbage (Isaac and Harris) just shows that other teams can see what the morons who run the Magic can't

[@karenkindler834]

Right on with your analysis!! And we are definitely slept on especially with the NBA.

[@DeHave]

100%!! It seams like any team that isn’t the Lakers, Knicks or Celtics hasn’t been getting enough coverage or the right type of coverage the last few seasons. That’s why I love making videos about a variety of teams! Thanks for the feedback 🙏🏻

[@gtelcy]

Magic fan here, this is really accurate. Paolo takes that next step, we might blow away any expectations.

[@DeHave]

Glad you enjoyed! Good luck next season! 🙏🏻

[@thestigforu]

This moron is saying that people should NOT sleep on the Magic that is as far from accurate it would be like me saying that the Spurs will win the championship next year with Wemby leading them

[@jaypaulauskas7108]

Great content brotha

[@DeHave]

Thank you so much, I’m really happy you enjoyed it! 🙏🏻

[@DaxperOfficial]

The only thing they might be messing is some veteran leadership, KCP is ok but I think Joe Ingles was really a good motivator and helped people lock in. If they add a good vet in the future it will do wonders when they reach deep in the playoffs.

[@DeHave]

That’s a fair point and concern, I think they just signed Corey Joseph to a two year deal so he could potentially fill that role!

[@michaelkiefer4714]

You did a really great job explaining the Magic situation. Props to you but I do have some very minor thoughts. I think Gary Harris and KCP are more like wings (as in they play the 2-3). You mentioned Anthony Black got more run than Jett Howard which is true but then you also said Anthony Black got most of his minutes towards the end of the season. Believe it or not he actually started mostly the beginning to early middle of the season (also when we had our 9-game win streak with him starting) because all the injuries we had at that spot of the season. It wasn’t until everyone came back that he got moved back to the end of the bench. He really should have received more playing time at the end of the season but I truly believe he was internally suspended by the Magic for the infamous jersey swap he did with Gradey Dick. I know super small petty things but just wanted to mention for clarity not for a gotcha.

[@EbizzerHH]

And the Orlando German's hit a homerun with Tristan da Silva!!! 💪

[@AlexaNichols-ll2ix]

Hanging their identity on defense is something we haven't seen teams prioritize in a long while and its WORKING. Coach Mo has taken this group from the bottom to the top. Banchero is so underrated but i don't think that's gonna be for long

[@DeHave]

Very true, it’s incredibly successful and necessary to instill in a young team! Spot on! 🙏🏻

[@DinoBlaxx]

If Magic get a true rim protector that can dominate the paint that will give them another dimension to their offense. Imagine shooting three when needed, able to drive to basket and can play down low depends what team they playing against. I still believe if I was magics I would give Dwight Howard a role. At his age he still is a force

If the Orlando Magic have the bless for draft Tristan Da Silva and he get Over 20 m 6:46 mpg and spend a good min with Paolo, Franz, Suggs, J Isaac and KC Pope they are going to be the team to beat. Plus have progress from A Black, J Howard and Caleb Houstan is going to be the youngest power team.

Da Silva has looked amazing in the summer league, I think you got a steal with that pick for sure! 🔥🔥

[@thestigforu]

So the Magic offseason moves were Caldwell-Pope (10ppg and is 31) signing for 3 yr/66 million Isaac (6.8ppg) re-signing for 5yr/69 million Harris (7.9ppg) re-signing for 2yr/15 million M Wagner (10.8ppg) re-signing for 2yr/22 million F Wagner (19.7ppg) re-signing for 5 yr/234 million Joseph (2.4ppg) signing for 2 yr/7.7 million Our roster got WORSE and yet you are suggesting that people should "stop sleeping on Orlando"

[@DeHave]

Ppg isn’t the only stat in basketball, KCP and Isaac are excellent defenders. KCP is one of the better two way role player in the league, also 2 time champion, he’s exactly the type of player they needed for shooting as well. I know you’re going for a gotcha but it’s not a well informed take.

[@thestigforu]

@@DeHave so the object of basketball is NOT to put the ball in the hoop??? Thinking that defense is the most important stat is the kind of bullshit that has delivered Orlando how many championships??? NONE

[@thestigforu]

@@DeHave a role player is NOT worth 20 million a year

[@DeHave]

When did I say defense was the most important? When did I say scoring wasn’t the objective? You’re completely mischaracterizing my point lol some role players absolutely are worth 20m per season. Would Boston have won without Derrick white? He’s a role player on a similar tier to KCP maybe a little better but my point is they’re both worth that contract. I know for a fact Denver wouldn’t have won without KCP. Scoring is the primary objective offensively, stopping the other team is the objective defensively, they are equally as important. If you watched the Orlando magic last season you’d know that a lack of knockdown shooters held them back from scoring effectively in the half court set. They needed shooters to score, KCP is an elite shooter. He also provides elite perimeter defense, how exactly do they not get better with him in the lineup? Points aren’t the only valuable thing offensively, to actually score points consistently against quality defenses, you need a balance of many things. Creators like Paolo and Franz, who can score on three levels and get to basket and finish are the Magic’s biggest weapons. However, in order for them to not be doubled and swarmed with no room to operate, they need snipers to keep defenders from doubling comfortably. I can’t believe I have to explain this to someone but points per game doesn’t account for many things offensively, like shooting presence or gravity. While KCP may only score around 10 per game, his value is much much higher because of how much better makes Paulo and Franz on both ends. Like this is not that complicated, scoring only works if you can do it reliably, they can’t do it reliably without shooters lol KCP = shooter…

[@thestigforu]

​@@DeHavesuggesting that KCP is anywhere near the level of Derrick White proves that you have NO idea about basketball so find something that you have a clue about and stop posting dumb videos about basketball
