Orlando Magic’s shooting problems persist in loss to Chicago Bulls #orlandomagic
This is Philip Rossman, the host of Locked on Magic here at the KIA Center as the Orlando Magic fall to the Chicago Bulls 110 to 98. Another game where the Magic simply could not find their shot. That intractable problem shows up again. The Magic shoot three for 24 from three, two for 17 in the first half and they only won three. That one three actually sparked a little bit of a run that allowed them to tie the game in the third quarter. But at the end of the day, this game is about making shots. You’ve got to make shots to stay in these games. And the Magic could not find offense. It wasn’t even just a three-point shooting. They struggled to score at the rim. They struggled to score in transition. There’s so many so many so many mistakes. This team looks like they’re out of sync. And the fact of the matter is when you’re struggling to score, that puts so much pressure on your defense. When you’re playing faster, it’s a lot more opportunities to score against their defense. The Magic’s defense generally fine. There were some certainly some bad fouls, some bad threes. AO Dumu hit two big threes that put this game away, but this is about the Magic’s offense still. And until that gets corrected, the Magic are going to struggle.
The Orlando Magic met their old enemy — shooting.
It is going to be hard to do much until the shots fall.

New season, same problems 😪
Two back to back losses 😢😢😢
Bulls are just a better team that’s all.the Orlando turnovers will make it in about a century
Anthony black was the best player on the magic tonight
Why do we always suck no matter who is on the team… its not fair😢
Hopefully coach ShamGod can turn somebody on this team into a point guard. Right now we can't generate open shots at all unless the other team makes mistakes on D.
It’s two games and a long season. Everyone calm down.
They kept passing up the right shot feet from the basket to kick it out for a missed three. They have to learn to take the close shot, to take it confidently and to go hard; forget about whistles cause they aren’t coming.
