Too right

As a Magic fan since 1989 it feels amazing to hear someone speak well about the Magic and not mention Shaq as the reason!

[@zachjones6364]

As a magic fan I really like Cade, Duren, Ivey and Ausar. Thanks for the flowers. Most teams just hate on us.

Pistons should have been apart of this small market golden age. Sacramento, OKC, Minnesota, Denver, Milwuake, Orlando... 2024 could have been 2004 all over again

I want to give you props for such a fair, prepared assessment of the Magic. As a diehard Magic fan who follows the team daily I can say you really nailed it. So many on KZbin miss the context of how this whole success story has gotten to where it is. Subscribing for sure! Hopefully the pistons get their ish together 🙏🏽

[@reubenc4223]

Thank you for the kind words and recognition - Magic fan.

[@kylecarter306]

i wish you would have mentioned mo wagner and others, they have really helped contribute to the culture of the team/city. cole anthony and jalen suggs especially, they have truly brought so much energy to this team.

[@InspirationSessions]

People are naturally impatient to see what this group can achieve this year but if Orlando is able to keep this young line-up together for the next five years, I feel like we could see something really special...

[@JoseMartinez-gs4qn]

PLAY THE SONG

[@nsusaint]

As a lifelong Magic fan, thanks for the praise. I still root for teams like the pistons, Thunder, and rockets because they drafted a lot of the guys I was looking for the Magic to draft.

[@grayson0916]

I wanted SGA so bad

[@Popcannyo]

Magic fan here. When we traded Dwight and started a rebuild it was the same time the Celtics started rebuilding. They started winning again with IT and those boys meanwhile we had Andrew Nicholson… so I get it However I learned from this current magic rebuild that it takes the coaches instilling in the players that this is a long term vision and each game is about us getting better for the long term goal and the wins and losses don’t matter right now. That’s a tough culture to build. You guys might have to clean house down to about 3 players and start over

[@Adizzle321]

The Chicago trade was a HUGE win for Orlando. They landed Franz with the pick and WCJ at the same time. But Orlando has drafted to perfection in culture and players that fit with eachother.. And then there is PAOLO... This team is gonna be dangerous for years to come because they're gonna stick together

[@fkm512]

Fellow Pistons fan and I agree, very envious of the Magics rebuild. It’s a very well rounded team with clear roles for most of their guys.

[@halftime814]

I wonder steve Clifford regret his decision leaving orlando to go coach the hornets, he said he said he doesn't wanna be part of a rebuild but is literally going through it with the hornets

[@WaliWrlddd]

It’s so nice to finally get some respect as a magic fan…I’m rooting for the pistons more than any other young team on the come up! It’s only a matter of time before Cade and ausar start to figure things out and get your franchise rolling!

[@nathanzonno9030]

Wendell Carter is underrated and also adds to the versatility they have.. Franz Paolo Carter that’s a tough line up to match up with especially how they can all run pick and rolls.. and then you have Suggs and Harris who solidify that defensive tenacity on the perimeter it’s cool to see that succeed in this modern day offensive league

[@Jairan78]

As an Orlando Magic fan I feel you. We staying competitive. Didn’t understand the Bol Bol or Mo Bamba moves but they’re not making no noise anyway. If things remain, I got O-town taking the Knicks in the 1st round.

[@blackedmirror5073]

I feel like I just personally won the Super Bowl watching this video. It’s been so cool watching this team grow together! Magic Nation Let’s ride!!

[@TheRealDalic]

As a Magic fan, thanks for showering the team with love! The Pistons are bettee than their record and are on the upswing themselves! Either next year or thw year after that, I wouldn't count them out of the play-in/playoffs.

[@Nightskyninja]

Magic got two future firsts from Chicago actually. Makes it even more of a fleece.

[@Sanxs6]

As a magic fan I love what ur saying and I very surprised someone is happy with our team

[@larrystewart2129]

They pace the game very well in the modern day game. Much patience for a young core

[@imertron]

Much love from Orlando 💙🖤

[@lo138]

As a magic fan, I fully expected the pistons to contend for a playoff spot this year feel bad for pistons fans rn

[@tonyh4513]

Very nicely done. Go Magic!!!

[@MrTV-cs3mu]

They all thought we was stupid for our draft picks

[@AndyKapp]

They? A lot of Magic fans hated on the Franz pick. Magic FO doesn’t get enough credit imho.

magic fan here, this feels so good. pistons will be back soon🤞

[@mr2firstnames]

My man. Thank you for this video. Grew up going to Magic games in the nosebleeds…hoping this is the young core that will get us to glory. Interesting note most people don’t talk about…Coke(not a typo) Anthony is definitely an important piece of the current roster, however we had a chance to grab Maxey that year. Imagine that… Even more so Maxey fits Weltman’s type so much more than Cole (size + defensive versatility) I was sure we were adding Maxey that night. Very happy with how things have turned out. But whenever I watch Maxey cook I can’t help but wonder. Soldier on sir I’ll be watching.🫡

[@Kiefer77]

super thorough breakdown. Pistons have some talented young players. It was always confusing to me why they didn't take that next step as a team

They are 'The 4 Centers of Doom and Paolo & Franz' Maybe they could try and get Trey Young.

[@osheathedj]

I've been a pistons fan my entire adult life....that being said, I'm seriously debating jumping ship. And the Orlando Magic seem a likely candidate, as they are on the course that I thought we would be on.

[@anthonyvelez1022]

GOOO MAGIC 💯 💯

[@Lionheart831]

Envy is a sentiment far removed from the current discourse. Both the Orlando Magic and the Detroit Pistons boast highly promising young squads, each harboring a bright future. The distinction lies in the Magic's ability to harness their roster effectively, while the Pistons currently navigate a challenging phase, striving to carve out a distinct identity. This endeavor involves key players such as Cade, Ivey, Duren, Ausar, Sasser, Beef Stew, among others. As a lifelong supporter of the Detroit Pistons, any notion of jealousy towards other NBA teams, including the Orlando Magic, is unfounded. Despite the immediate challenges faced by the Pistons organization, it is imperative to recognize the franchise's enduring legacy within the league. This legacy spans from the era of "The Bad Boys Pistons" to the "Going to Work Pistons," showcasing decades of notable achievements. The intent behind critiquing the Magic does not stem from a place of ill will but rather from a recognition of their commendable performance. I aspire to witness success for several teams-including the Thunders, Rockets, Spurs, and the Pistons-irrespective of the latter's current organizational hurdles. It is crucial to underline, however, that despite the potential success of the current Pistons squad in the 2023-2024 season, a perceptible bias against the team persists within the league.

[@bigstupidgrin]

One of the big things I ponder with sports is "what if this team was coached well?" Like, stick a great coach on the Pistons, what happens?

[@shaneg4383]

Never say a teams window is long. Bad juju. Usually doesn’t work

[@jordanhenshaw8338]

Also Paolo never worked out for the magic and Jabari smith jr had a really good workout with them a lot of people thought Jabari was gonna go first on those indications even the day of the draft the arena had a section full of auburn fans but obviously the magic got their guy

[@joepenalvert7776]

Imagine if Isaac was a healthy player and Fultz had reached his potential. We’d be talking about a contender right now

[@davidj5653]

For once someone that knows what he's talking about in detail. I appreciate your clarity and authenticity.

[@SoAMAZINmusic]

I think Detroit is better than their record, it’s just some of the pieces weren’t fitting together. Don’t know what Monty Williams was doing to start the year off. Appreciate this video though. It indeed feels great to be a Magic fan atm.

[@user-pv3wm9qo9d]

Franz Wagner 🏀🔥🙌

[@JP-Esq]

Speaking as an Orlando fan, Detroit fans shouldn't be too down on their team as part of the difference is purely luck. The Vucevic trade ended up being gold but the Gordon trade wasn't great. That's a normal outcome. What isn't normal is to have the equal best odds to get Wemby and up with the 5th pick only 1 spot if Orlando. Don't get me wrong, front office competency is also part of this. Why go for the most expensive coach of all time when youve just had the best lottery odds? Orlando went the rookie coach route which so far has been not only better but has enabled a new culture and identity to form. Regardless, the current Detroit roster is better then their current record. Cade, Ivey, Duren and Thompson are legitimate pieces to build from.

An interesting potential topic could be how american NBA fans/media are feeling about the amount of non-americans winning MVPs. As a European I feel very proud, but with the last 5 winners being european/African, and wemby, luka and shai yet to win one and looking more likely than anyone else to get their first over Giannis and Joker, how would US based fans feel about a decade of this? Would it be similar to Canadians feeling uneasy about American expansion in hockey? I have no idea! I adore your content, Much love from England! X

[@cjmack8153]

Listen to Gilbert Arenas and you will disappointed. I don't US mainstream media and some fans don't want to have a European player as the face of the league.

[@noelramirez1551]

​@@cjmack8153 but Gilbert is the perfect example of not everyone should have a podcast...his take was so stupid and ignorant the nationality of the face of NBA shouldn't matter but if he's foreign born it's actually better for the expansion of the game like I think jokic could never be the face of the league he just doesn't care about it but Luka is a perfect fit he speaks Spanish perfect for how the NBA is so popular with Hispanics

[@cjmack8153]

@@noelramirez1551 Personally I think it's going be Wemby. I like this done with 90s after not liking at first I think the younger fans are more open minded.

[@KofieWhy]

We won 20 games in 2019-2020. We're in year 4 of a rebuild with a coaching change.

[@alexbrent2885]

@@KofieWhy 2019-2020 we still had Blake griffin Andre Drummond Reggie Jackson etc. so idk why you are considering that the beginning of a rebuild or any relevance at all, second Troy weaver became the GM in the middle of 2020 July I believe and we still had Blake and a bunch of 26 year olds that weren’t worth a damn and the only young player we had were Killian and Beef stew, if you really want to talk about the pistons at least know their history the rebuild started with Cade in 2021-22 not in 2019 and like I said in my original comment this is Monty’s first year coaching the team and we have an avg starter age of 21 years old if you’re jealous of another team go band wagon them but don’t come back when we’re winning and a young dynasty. You were probably one of the band wagon fans that hated on OKC before they started winning in Russ and KDs third and fourth year

[@thetank5642]

Jalen Suggs as a “hit” is a bit of a stretch. Yeah he fits the team really well but he’s basically a Walmart Marcus Smart. I’m not sure teams with the 5th overall pick are really wanting that

[@luisdegu]

Jalen Suggs arguably the most important player in the roster outside of Franz and Paolo. That draft with Franz and Suggs is a hit

[@fkm512]

I mean yeah but with guys like Paolo and Franz doing the heavy lifting he fits that role perfectly

[@JacobC222]

Suggs has been huge for the Magic recently. He keeps improving too. He is best shooter on the team right now and his defense is elite.

[@sarj4918]

Totally disagree, Suggs is the heart of the team who is an elite defender and a very good 3 pt shooter. I don't think smart is anywhere close to as efficient as Suggs

[@okcrw0608]

What’s wrong with a Walmart Marcus smart

[@bradainslie4127]

Hahaha. Jealous of the magic? Don’t worry they will be tanking again as soon as they draft picks hit free agency and bolt to a real club!

[@AndyKapp]

😂 Yeah, that’s going to happen… on your NBA 2K Magic team. Always easy to spot people who know nothing about the Magic.

[@halftime814]

U mad?😂 well thats not happening for awhlie most of our players are on rookie contracts and cole anthony just sign a extension couple months ago for cheap so he can stay on the team
