What an awful game. Not much more to say than that. Awful, awful performence by the Magic tonight.

[Charlotte_______]

Oh my goodness Bobcats win. This wil go down in the history books for sure. Great game by Okafor, Brezec, Hart, and Wallace.

[Idunkonyou]

Horrible defensive effort.

Damn, ya'll got owned by the Bobcats... Not a good sign for the franchise (no, I'm not talking about the player).

It's embarrassing for now, but in the long run it's not too big of a deal. Especially if we can bounce back and steal the game from Dallas on Tuesday, it'd erase a lot of the harm from this loss. While losing to Charlotte sucks and is embarrassing, it's not the end of the world. Step back and take a look at the grande scheme of things, and the Magic are 2-1 and tied for 2nd in the division. We're fine.

- Not a good sign for the franchise. Somebody was going to lose to them eventually ... at least we got it out of the way early.

Part of me expected this after the two big wins previously. A letdown was almost inevitable in this game. And this game was a combination of Charlotte playing some pretty good ball and the Magic playing pretty downright crappy.

Good thing a loss to the Bobcats counts the same in the loss column as a loss to the Spurs or Wolves or whoever.

This game doesn't really worry me. If anything, I think this loss gives us a better chance to beat Dallas in the next game.

Good sign Hill playing without a problem. I watched the game off and on while playing poker. Looks like Grant is slowly starting to move better, quicker, and handle the ball better. And eventually Garrity is going to start hitting some shots ... I swear he will.

God, Garrity was dreadful.

lets not blame it on the refs unless its a meaningful game like in the playoffs

Terrible. Disgusted. These are the words that best describe my feelings towards last nights game. To think that we let Charlotte score 111 points makes me wonder what the hell we were doing out there. Sure, we can have an off night shooting, but if anyone (not even us) scores 100 points against the Bobcats it should be an automatic win. To let a team full of bench players and Okafor score 111 points is disgraceful. It's not as if they shot the lights out to either.
I hope none of the supporters of the Bobcats takes this the wrong way, congratulations on being the better team on the night.

I'd lose 1 game to the bobcats than lose 19 games in a row.

Agreed. The defensive effort out there was horrible. What made me really mad though was how stupid the Magic played yesterday, on both ends of the court. Stupid, stupid decisions left and right.

I'd consider both horribly embarrassing. Of course, 19 games is a lot worse for the standings. But can there be anything worse than letting a bunch of players that wouldn't start on any other team in the league (besides Okafor) score 111 points in 48 minutes at 46% shooting. I'd consider that just as demoralizing, but you're right 19 loses is horrible too.
