They just have a miscommunication error, and Cornette and Jalen Brown try to pre-switch, but they don't do it in time, and so Jalen is closing out, and Ahmed Thompson is able to get into the paint very easily. He might have gotten into the paint anyway, but would have had a much tougher time if Jalen was squared up against him. That was a weird one.

They had the Pelicans game where Derek White just dropped the ball out of bounds on an inbounds pass. I don't think that'll happen very often. Then he had a five second violation that same game with like six seconds left. The Clippers game, they're up six with a minute. And then all of a sudden they're just throwing it all over the place.

Joe Mizzou is literally out at half court trying to call timeout. Refs won't give it to him. You can see him like for seconds just calling timeout. They don't give it to him. Jalen gets called for an offensive foul later in that play. That doesn't happen very often. So it's just like there's been a lot of weird, weird stuff.

And I'm not trying to give them excuses because they also need to execute better. Their crunch time defense needs to be a lot better. Their fourth quarters in general just need to be a lot better. A lot of it is just like weird stuff has happened during this stretch. And over the course of a season, that's that stuff happens. But for them, it's all happened.

It's all been jammed into slamming jammed into a one or two month stretch.

The Magic, I've been a Magic fan for a long time. I think the way they play defense is just incredible. Those guys can really, really defend. I don't know if they have enough offense to challenge a team like the Celtics, but even if that's a four or five game series, you come out of that... You're bruised. You're beaten. You've dealt with jail and sugs for seven games.

You've dealt with the size and physicality of Franz Wagner and Paulo Banqueiro. You've just... You're not going to be feeling great about yourselves coming out of that series, I think, because you probably struggle to score. Nobody's really in rhythm. If I were them and the Magic are near the bottom of the standings in the Eastern Conference, that's the team that I wouldn't really want to play.
