0:00President Barack Obama. Virginia, we are counting on you. Republicans want to steal enough seats in Congress to raid the next election and wield unchecked power for two more years. But you can stop them by voting yes by April 21st. Help put our elections back on a level playing field and let voters decide not politicians. Vote yes by April 21st. Paid for by Virginians for fair elections. What's going on Orlando Magic fans welcome back to the six-man show post game live presented by Thrive. I'm going to be honest with you guys I got I got nothing I have I have very few things to

1:01say because my my mom I taught me at a young age that if you don't have anything nice to say don't say nothing at all. And this could be a 75 minute post game live with the amount of not nice things I have to say about this team. But actually we're going to get through all of our super chats we're going to get to our sponsor. All very important parts of the show thank you guys for still being here. You guys are insane for wanting to go on a YouTube video and talk about that game whatever that was. But we normally don't read our super chats out of out of order. But I just saw one that came in from eCraft for a few minutes ago and I just had to start with this one because it starts with the three words uninspired unmotivated unserious uninspired unmotivated unserious. I had to pull that up eCraft 4 because I had no better way to start this show than by

2:06what you just presented in that super chat because uninspired unmotivated and unserious to read the rest of it with this effort tonight. It's such a critical point of the season. I'm officially done layers of issues with this team. But first step needs to be a new coach next season. Completely agree with your entire comment. But how? How is is this the same team that just won seven games the last time I was on here was the heat game when we were celebrating a seventh straight win and now we're here on a five game losing streak having just lost to the Indiana Pacers for their first win in 40 days 40 days a 16 game losing streak that is almost a quarter of the season and you show up a team with supposedly playoff aspirations and you play like that.

3:15I haven't even read through the comments. I don't want to hear anything about the lack of a call against Paulo in the few minutes. I don't care. Was it a foul? Absolutely. Was it a terrible no call? Absolutely. It is on you for putting the refs in a position to make that call because you were down 12 to this team with two and a half minutes left in this game. That is your responsibility for avoiding that situation to begin with. So I'm going to great mood. So let's get started with the show, shall we? The six-man show post game live is presented by Thriveant. I know that Mark Abraham, Die Harder, Orlando Magic is just as ticked off as we all are. He is a season ticket holder. He sits in section 118. He is a financial advisor, works with Thriveant and more than just being an Orlando Magic fan. He also loves helping people with retirement planning, debt elimination, budgeting, savings, all different sorts of things. So I just wanted to let you guys know that he would love to hear from you guys. Maybe talk about this five game losing streak. If leaving some comments and some super chats in this comment section isn't enough for y'all, which I don't even

4:19think this show is going to be enough for me to get everything off of my chest. Give him a call, talk over Magic Ball, talk about your frustrations, and then also maybe talk about some of your frustrations with your finances. Talk about things that you can do to maybe get out of a bad situation into a good situation or get from a good situation into a better one. He would love to hear from you. Give him a call at 407-366-4364. That is 407-366-4364. First call is completely complimentary. You can also email him at mark.abrahamatthriveant.com. Mark, thank you so much for you and Thriveant for supporting the show. We appreciate you guys. Let's go ahead and get back to some of these other super chats here before we dive into the comment section. Here we go. Brian Anderson, 2538. As with performances like this against the lowly Pacers, we shouldn't be surprised at the game against the Hawks was flexed off of ESPN. Go Magic. Maybe the ESPN must have knew something that we didn't. Clearly, because this was supposed to be our get right game. Tomorrow was supposed to

5:19be the game that we struggled with. The second half of a back-to-back going to Cleveland, right? I know this. We're probably going to win tomorrow because we have a better record on the second half of back-to-backs this year because we don't know how to actually show up with effort and care on the first half of back-to-backs this season, apparently. Buffalo, Sean 97. What's your early off season plan for this team? Get me a new head coach. Get me a new head coach. I'm second tired of his mom who is being the head coach of this basketball team. I'm tired of it. So tired of it. There was a point in this game with about seven minutes left in the fourth quarter where our offense was Javon Carter. I sowing the ball for 14 and a half seconds and chucking up a fade away midi from about 12 feet down 12 in the fourth quarter against the Indiana Pacers. That was our offensive set because we don't have a coach that can actually lead us to do anything better. This team doesn't know how to close games. This team doesn't know how to operate on the offensive side of the ball. It's pathetic. So I don't care what the offensive plan, the offseason plan for this team

6:21is, but it needs to start with a new coach. I'm done. I'm done. We've tried it. We've seen the ups and we've seen the downs and the downs are significantly worse than the ups are good. That's just the case. And I don't know how any magic fan can ignore that at this point of the season. Only here are 27-14 getting ahead of things. I think he sent this in before I even said what I said. All excuses are invalid. We lost to the Pacers. Amen. I really don't care. Buffalo, Sean 97, was this the ref's first day on the job, complete incompetence? Yeah, I don't know what happened with the challenge there at the end of the third quarter. If that's the rule, call it the way that the rule is, I don't care. I'd rather things be called according to the rules than called incorrectly. But it was just a lot of things were just jumbled. And in fairness, that's something weird where it's like, okay, well, can you challenge on a basket interference? That's kind of strange. And then did we get our challenge back and stuff? Like, I'm not upset at them about that. But like, yeah, there was a little bit of frustration with the way that things were handled there, for sure. The Zach guy 564 underscore 9, appreciate you for the love and

7:24support on the channel, my friend. Thank you so much. Mr. TV said just laugh at the insanity of this team. Clearly a foul, but we keep letting the refs decide our games. I'm not even sure we would make it out the plan. For sure, these last two games, you have allowed the ref to determine how the end of the game would go. We all got frustrated about the no call or the incorrect call with the ball going off LeBron at the end of the game and then confirming it in the last two-minute report, which is the most insane thing I've ever seen in my entire life. The levels of bias from the league are crazy. But then you have to avoid games like this. In the words of Philip Rossment Reich, that I know Jonathan quotes all the time on the show, good teams win close games, great teams avoid close games. Refs can only decide the games in close games and you should not have had a close game against an Indiana Pacer's team that had not won a game in 40 games. That is inexcusable, that is on you. You cannot put the game in the hands of the referees. You just can't. Magic had one time out left. Do they get to keep it not entirely sure what you're referring to

8:29here? If it has to do with the fact that we didn't call it, we called it when we won the jump ball and we drew up a play. I didn't love the fact that it was Paulo spinning to the baseline. He did get fouled. I can't complain with the results because he got to the basket. He got fouled. He should have had two free throws. Yeah, there were definitely a couple of moments in the third and the fourth where you probably could have called that time out to stem a little bit of the tide with the the Pacers, but we didn't do that. Dominic Henry 55-58 says, this is why I didn't get too high when they win. Yeah, the problem I have with myself is that I don't temper my expectations and I just throw myself off the deep end every single time this team shows any form of potential. We have a seven game win streak. I get super excited and I think about, oh, look how great this team's going to be and all that. Then we lay an egg. What I would say is probably the worst loss of the season. I've had to be honest. Maybe I'm biased because I'm here doing this, but see, we have

9:32very UMFC. I'm not sure, Verum FC. I'm not sure what that is. Sorry if I mispronounced your name, my man. Mostly not having been fired as crazy work. Here's another roster blow up this summer because Waltman insists on making this coach work to the point that we now have zero flexibility. Most has got to go. I'm not on the, yeah, maybe Trent, he's got to go. I need something. If nothing else, just to get a different guy in the locker room who can just inject a different type of life into these players because it feels like more nights than not, he's lost the locker room and it's frustrating to see. Another $1.99 from the Zach guy 564 underscore nine. Again, appreciate you with the love and support. That's a fantastic profile picture, by the way. And then we have Lee Sanders 43-31. We have the talent even with three guys out. I love mose, but I am done. Talent has always won in the NBA and yet it's not working for us. This points to one guy and I've defended him for years. I've been defending him too. You know that this channel,

10:34we've had a lot of detractors and people who have said that they're frustrated because we've defended mose too much. And I know that we've all kind of had our moments of frustration. He has done a great job of getting this team to where they are and we would not be where we're at developmentally if it was not for moseley, but he is not the coach to take this team to the next level. He is not the coach to transform this team from a young team, excuse me, full of potential to AA championship contender. He's not the guy. He's not. And I think we've finally seen enough for that to happen. So I'm willing to bet before we jump into the comments section that the majority of you guys' comments tonight are going to be about the frustration of play, the frustration of the referees, the frustration of the no foul call on Paulo at the end, and the frustration with Jamal Moseley in the head coaching position. So my apologies, we already have 200 comments to get through. I'm not going to be able to get through all of them. And to be completely honest with you guys, I just don't have the emotional and mental wherewithal to do a 35-minute show tonight because I just I don't know how I can keep doing it

11:37because this team keeps doing the same thing. Building our hopes up just to crash them down to the ground by having one of the worst performances of the season. Again, it's potentially the worst team in the NBA. So all right, going through the comments here, a lot of people commenting towards the end of the game, just a very straightforward, just dang from a jewellery B-4592, just dang. Yeah. Jets Magic said this team, air quotes, is garbage absolutely no chemistry. Couldn't agree more. E-NES 00 says the lowest of the low. Yeah, absolutely. It was again, I didn't look at the schedule, so I can't think of the fact that I can't think of another game that that comes to mind of being worse than this one. I just can't. And maybe it's again, recency bias, I'm not sure, but I just I haven't felt this dejected about this team in so, so, so long and I just, I just don't get it.

12:39Let's see. Don deliveries. I agree, Jovi. I'm not entirely sure. I've probably missed your, your comment. I'm Jovi, another faithful listener of the show. Appreciate you. But some point we have to be honest. No way this game should come down to one possession. Exactly. I appreciate people in the comments backing me up on that. You can't put the game in the hands of one possession. You can't be down 12 points in the last two minutes to the end of the end of Pacers. Yeah, absolutely not. Let's see. We're going to go through here. You're off Patel. Good by Moes. I just don't see it guys. I just don't see this team firing Moes before the end of the year. And it stinks. But I think that if they were going to do it, it would have happened closer to the trade deadline. And I just, I'm, I don't see it happening anytime soon. Cricks a 24. This team is a disgrace. That's definitely how it feels. Dan Jansen 1853 with the $2 super chat. Thank you for the support. Says can't trust these players or roster as constructed. And yeah, we're,

13:43we're appointing a lot of fingers at Moes tonight. But this is not necessarily a roster issue, but this is a player issue. Like you coming out against the Pacers, you showed zero energy in the first quarter. You got a great second quarter. And then we're going to get to the box score. But in the game summary, you allowed the Indiana Pacers to score 44 points against you in the third quarter. 44 points. Atrocious. Terrible. Terrible effort. Uninspired, uncaring, whatever the three words were that we saw at the beginning of the night. It was, it was awful. The magic are, are the NBA's version of the one two three. Give me your, give me your, your greatest. I'll see if I can get to the comments or towards the end for this. Give me your greatest comparison. What are the magic feel like right now to you as a magic fan? What, what are your, what are you experiencing? Like right now, the magic feels like blank or, or right now, the, or being a fan of

14:46the Orlando Magic feels like blank. And I'll try to highlight some of my favorites at the end of the night, because we get to do it again all over tomorrow night. And wouldn't be surprised if we find a way to win that one, which makes no sense. But we're going to do it. Watch guys, because this team doesn't do any of the things they should do and they do all the things they shouldn't. So, um, still a lot of comments talking about that was a foul. That was a foul. That was a foul. Come by us as robbed, but we suck. Four words. If I had to pinpoint this, this game into four words, this is potentially the greatest forward summary of, of this game I could possibly think of is yeah, we were robbed of two Paulo free throws at the end and a couple other points off the board. Probably had a couple other points in this game, but robbed, but, but we suck. Yeah. Absolutely. Um, Lee Sanders says we're all mad. Here's a productive question. Where do we go from here this season and moving forward? I think that that's going to be a difficult question.

15:46I think it's a question that, uh, thank you for the super chat, by the way, a super, super, no pun intended, uh, generous chat from Lee Sanders. Appreciate you, my man. Um, again, I think it's got to start with a coaching change. I think that we see a lot of times in the NBA. We see coaching change and coaching changes and coaching shifts, uh, kind of shift the dynamic and shift the energy of a team. So, uh, you get in a coach, even if they're equal to or slightly better than coach mostly, um, I think you got to make that coaching change. The problem is you really went all in on this roster by trading for Desmond Bay and you have four guys making the majority of your money. You have some very interesting decisions coming up on guys like Anthony Black. Um, I have no idea what it's going to look like. And also really, really stinks that we haven't been able to analyze this team fully healthy, um, because it always feels like this front office is going to make that excuse of like, oh, once we get healthy, once we maybe that needs to be the offseason move, maybe the offseason move, move needs to be firing the training staff because if we fire the training staff and we fire the medical staff, then maybe the front office can actually come through on the, oh, like, let's see what this team looks like fully healthy because with our

16:47current training staff for whatever reason, this team gets injured at a higher rate than most of the other teams in the NBA and it's ridiculous. It's ridiculous. It's inexcusable. So maybe a new coaching staff and a new training and medical staff and then get healthy in the offseason, run it back with a different coach because at this point, you are, you have limited yourself as a front office to the things that you can actually do to improve on and make this team better. You just really limited yourself. There's only so much you can do. There's only so much you can make happen. Um, we got another couple of, uh, super chats here. We got a super chat from the guys over at the six man show, um, the, the admin commenting in here. Magic feel like the meteor that took out the dinos. If, if this isn't a four word summary of tonight's, uh, tonight's game, but it's definitely a frustrating one. And that's, uh, that's another fantastic summary right there. Um, Matt six seven K nine six, uh, X, I'm not going to make the joke. My wife will get mad. Uh, I love our players, but turned out from the season several games ago and I couldn't be happier.

17:49I wish I, I wish I did. I really did. I've, I've been paying a little bit more attention to the Tampa Bay Lightning. Ooh, I've been, been letting me down. Um, but I can't just, uh, this is, this is the, the life that I've chosen, um, both as a fan of this team and as a member of this, this podcast network, um, where I just don't have any options. I can't do, you know, I can't do anything different other than being invested in this team because I care way too much about this, this stupid basketball team that breaks my heart more often than they, they fulfill my wildest dreams and it's awful, but here we are. So big thanks to our sponsor, BetterHelp for partnering with us for this important conversation about mental health. This Steve Smith here, former NFL Y receiver and host of the 89 show on YouTube. So having a counselor and working with BetterHelp, that gives you an opportunity to really start to unpack, but people don't understand when you unpack things. You also open up a box that you're not always sure what's inside. So I think that's why I was seeing a professional is extremely important. If you need someone to

18:50open up to visit BetterHelp, that's better, H-E-L-P dot com slash 89 to get started. You're juggling a lot, but you can still squeeze in a financial plan.

So if you're time the not, closing on a house, or welcoming a little one, you'll be ready for whatever life tosses your way. It's the right time to feel less stressed and more certain. That's a better way to money. Let's get started at nm dot com. The Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company Milwaukee, Wisconsin. All right, I think before we get back over to the comment section, which again, we have my goodness. So, so, so many comments to get through. Oh, my goodness, guys. This is, I never thought I would see this a day of my life. I think it is officially time to to sound the sirens. Mispositive. Mis always be an optimist. Mis guys, it's okay. At least the

19:51magic played hard. Faithful listener of the show. Janine Richmond has reached her breaking point. Can we just end the season now, please? Do you know Orlando Magic? What you have to do to break Janine Richmond? Do you understand what you have to do to break this woman's heart? And you've done it. She wants it to be over. And I never thought I would see that. I legitimately never thought I would would see that day, a day in my life. So, um, I'm not going to get it too much into the comments again. It's a lot of kind of, um, just repeating stuff of a lot of the same stuff we've already talked about. Um, man, uh, Brucia 007X says, man, we are actively drowning. That's definitely what it feels like. Um, Blake W says, I feel like I'm getting yelled at by my fourth grade teacher. Um, man, uh, not going to put this one on the screen, but man, this team

20:55is dog crap. I'm so tired. Uh, I feel like we're all exhausted, right? Like, like, I feel like we are all exhausted. I feel like we're tired. It's, it's tiring to watch this team. Um, even the wins, other than that seven game ray of hope that this team always gives us every single year. I feel like we just, we just don't have a lot to, to be joyful about or to be, to be happy about. I'm going to scroll down and try to find, um, some of these, um, comments about, uh, what it, what it feels like. Let me see. Um, yeah, here we go. Uh, Nikki new news says, hey, congrats to the Pacers for ending their losing streak, I guess. That's how we kind of all feel, I guess 16 games. Guys, that's, like I said earlier, that's almost a quarter of a season. You just lost to a team that has been losing for a quarter of their season. I don't understand how you make that happen. I really don't. Um, man, um, Jordan Cruz, last comment before we get to one more

21:55super chat and then head over to the game summary. Disney is the perfect sponsor for this team because this team is soft. Mm hmm. Yeah, it's, uh, it's great. It's great. It's fantastic. Um, all right, one more super chat here from eCraft for, uh, says agree with firing training staff, but don't like the constant injury, excuse from Waltman, look at Boston and okay, see injuries are inevitable in this league. It's true. It's true. Um, I just think that it's, it's, I don't know, I, I, I agree with you in that it's somewhere in the middle because I think that injuries constantly happen. Uh, injuries are always a problem and every team has to deal with injuries. I just, and maybe I'm wrong about this and maybe this is, you know, something that stats would prove me wrong on, but I just legitimately feel like this team, especially with its star players, you may not have more games missed than other teams in the NBA, but in terms of Franz, Paulo, Jalen, like, it just feels like the second one guy gets healthy, another guy goes down, the second one guy gets healthy, another guy goes down and it's just constant cycle over and over

22:56and over and over and over and over again of losing your star players and, and not being able to, you know, um, just not being able to put things together long-term. So, um, Enes, double-o, I, I pray, I pray that this was not a comment from any of the players or coach Mosley in the, I wouldn't be surprised if it was, but I, I pray that it's not because no, you don't have to give them credit. You, they, they, they, all, the only shots that they made were the shots that you gave them. They weren't making tough shots. They were making uncontested layups. They're making uncontested threes. You showed up and you had a bad game. You play your brand of basketball. You win this game by 20. You, you decided to not show up. So, I really hope that that's not something that someone actually said, or I'm crashing out on Twitter after this game is over. Um, yeah. All right, guys, uh, we're going to go ahead and head on over to the game summaries. I don't know how much more, uh, how much longer I can do this for. Um, here,

23:59you have the reason why you lost is you spotted them at 10 point lead after the first quarter. It doesn't matter that you dropped 40 in the second. It doesn't matter that you outscored them by six in the fourth. Uh, you spotted them at 10 point lead and then you allowed them to score 44 points in the third quarter with, I believe it was nine made threes at least six of them were wide open corner threes because they just ran the exact same offensive set play after play after play and our defense. Again, whether it was mostly or whether it was the players just showed no ability to adapt and it was extremely frustrating. Um, by the way, the reason you, you, you gave them that that 10 point lead is because you're like, Oh, hey, look, a team with relatively, you know, uh, terrible interior defense. Let's shoot like 15 three pointers in the first quarter, right? You didn't challenge them. You didn't play your brand of basketball. You're not a three point shooting team. They were giving you threes because they wanted you to shoot threes because with long shots, come long rebounds and fast break points. That's exactly what happens. Um, fast break points, 26 for the Pacers points off turnovers, 20, 20 points off of turnovers off of 11 turnovers

25:03with the Orlando magic. Just, there's so many different things that we can look at in this game to just point to to why this team lost. Palo with five turnovers other than that, a really solid game is minus four from the floor, but 39 points, six assists, uh, only three rebounds. I don't know 13 of 27 from the field, uh, four of nine from three nine of 12 from the free throw line. You really can't expect much. I mean, obviously with the ball on his hands that much five turnovers is a little much. You'd rather him have something a little closer to three. Um, but I mean, you'll, you'll take what you take. The problem is that I mean, the problem was not really the offense. I mean, you scored 126 points. The problem is when we look at actually, I know we don't do this often, but when we actually look at the Pacers box score here in a second, um, Javon Carter was a minus 17 really sucked that you were kind of put in a position where Javon Carter had to be your starting point guard tonight. Um, I just really have so little to look at here tonight. Like, no one really stood out. Um, I mean, Tristan with a pretty solid game,

26:07all things considered, um, Desmond's not a great game. I mean, I mean, yeah, technically 17, seven and six, but got you. And when he knew you were low on guard play, got into foul trouble in the early half or in the, in the first half early, which kind of threw off the rotational rhythm and everything. And it was just a lot of lack of awareness from a lot of players on the court tonight. But you look at the guys that cooked you tonight, Pascal, see, I come 37. He's a fantastic player. But Jarris Walker, 20 Aaron, Neesmith, 19, Andrew Nemhart, 13, uh, TJ McConnell, 13. He hit his only three points shot. And that was only his 14th three pointer, uh, three point made on the season, I believe, um, because of course it was. And they shot 16 of 35, 46% from three. They shot 55% from the field and 92% from the free throw line. And I mean, you ended up shooting 51% from the field and 35% from three. Again, you got to hold this Pacers team to less than 128 points.

27:08That's just unacceptable. 126 points should be enough to beat the Indiana Pacers. And it just wasn't. Um, we're going to go ahead and look at the standings here. I might know that we typically would go back to the chat for a few minutes before we do this, but we're going to go ahead and look at the standings. Um, your Orlando Magic are now in eighth place. Um, the Miami Heat are a half game back. You are one game away from being the 10 seed and having to go to the 9 seed for a playing game and then win that game and then win another game just for the honor of playing either the pistons, the Celtics or the Knicks in the first round, uh, with no home court advantage. Um, we were close, we were having conversations about the four seed about two weeks ago. And now it just feels like we'd be lucky to avoid not hosting a play in game because this team just doesn't seem to care, um, which is extremely frustrating. Let's go ahead and refresh this and look at some of the other scores from the night. 106, 106 Rockets and Bulls. That doesn't really affect us. Not surprisingly, the Raptors are up by 11 over the jazz, late in the

28:09second quarter, uh, Warriors Mavericks 3431. Nets play the blazers, uh, blazers, not super invested in that one or the Bucks Clippers pistons, uh, wind up winning against the Lakers. I thought that the pistons were going to, oh my gosh, Jenkins dropped 30 points for Detroit. I thought that Kade going out was going to have more of a negative impact on their season and they have been playing great and they beat a Lakers squad by three points tonight without Kade cunning him. And that team just might be more dangerous than they thought they were. Or we thought they were. Pacers beat the Atlanta Magic 128, 226. In case you didn't hear about that one, uh, the thunder, take care of business and, uh, Philly, 123 to 103. So the only good thing that happened tonight is that the 76ers lost in the heat also lost. They got things handed to them by the thunder and the spurs. No surprise. I think we're going to see a Thunder's and Spurs Western Conference final. I really do think that that's going to happen and I think that that's going to go seven games. I think it's going to be a fantastic series. Um, and then the hawks absolutely just destroy the

29:10Grizzlies 146 to 107 Nikhil Alexander Walker with a 26 point game. Um, let's see if there's any other comments that we need to get to hear guys. And then we're going to wrap this up pretty soon. Um, let's see, pain, tragic, tragic. Not going to put that one up there, but absolute dog crap. Pain. Uh, the magic feel like a toxic relationship right now. Yeah. To where you, uh, you, you know, it's bad for you and you know what you're going to get, but you just keep coming back for more. Um, that's a great analogy. I'll take that one. Um, hmm. Uh, one C, Monzano Feliciano 3670 says too much potential in players, but not a coach that dares them to go to the next step. Um, yeah, it doesn't feel like most has the respect of the players. And at this point, I feel like it's too late for him to gain it

30:12if I'm being honest. Um, let's see. Um, here we go. We're getting to, we're getting to some of these. Uh, real estate with Evan 6060 says being a diehard Orlando magic fan is like sticking your hand in boiling water. You know what's going to hurt, but you do it anyways. Uh, Buia 8848 feels like having a child to grow up to be nothing after investing your life. Oh, this was a great, this was a great question to ask. Um, man, fantastic. Um, oh, man, Don, I am so sorry to hear about that, man. Um, cheese. And the, the fact that the Orlando magic or not given you any solace right now is, is, is nothing great. I know what that feels like. I'm sorry, brother. I'm praying for you. Um, Janine Richmond says being a fan of the magic just feels sad and bipolar at this point. Um,

31:12man, man, 67 K9 X says I thought we upgraded our training staff. Yeah, me too. And I don't think it's really made a difference. So, um, it's, uh, dearest 2152 says being a magic fan is like being the parent of a drug addict, trying to get sober, but you love them anyways, even though you know there's a good chance they don't get clean. These analogies are hitting so hard tonight, but it is so true. Uh, being a Orlando magic fan feels like a car with no wheels, because we know we're not going anywhere. Um, man, uh, uh, why are you a cutie, too, says, I feel like I was invited to a party with all the cool kids, but then I was given the wrong address. Ken Ramos, 1305, the magic is like buying a car off of Teemu. Yeah. And now we're getting to the reactions of, of Mama Richmond, given up on the season, Lee Sanders, 4331 says, not Mama Richmond. We are so cooked. Um, yeah. Guys, I know that when I'm

32:16on here, I'm newsly a little bit long-winded and we run the show a little long when I'm on, but, uh, that's all I got. Um, sorry about the negativity. You know that I like being Mr. positivity. You know that I like, uh, um, bringing a little bit of positive energy to the fan base into the team, but, uh, this was similar to, to Janine. This was my breaking point tonight. I, I, I, I needed this win. We needed this win. This team needed this win. Everyone needed this win. And, uh, you land egg. And it was atrocious. It's terrible. Um, no excuses. Again, no call on, on Paulo, whatever. Don't put yourself in that position. Back-to-back games where you would say that if the refs called something differently, you might have won. Don't put yourself in that position. You blew a lead to be in that position at the end of the Lakers game. You blew a lead. You didn't blow a lead. You just were terrible tonight to put yourself in that position, um, late in the fourth. Um, but again, the positive thing I've got for you all the night is this.

33:20Uh, the positive thing I have is that the magic are going to win tomorrow. Not because I, uh, I'm some insane optimist with with my, you know, neither feet in reality. The magic are going to win tomorrow because every single time this year where they have lost the first half of a back-to-back that they were absolutely supposed to win, they then then go into the second half of a back-to-back that they're absolutely supposed to lose. And that's the game they win. We all expected them to go one in one on this back-to-back. We just expected it to be, uh, beating the Pacers and losing to the cabs. So that just means that because this team doesn't do anything that makes a freaking slight bit of sense, we're going to come out. We're going to win tomorrow night. So that being said, show on up tomorrow, eight o'clock tip, 1030 issues when the post game show is going to start. Um, thank you guys so much for being here. Man, it's, um, you guys are always some of the most supportive fans in the world when we're frustrated because I think that while we love this show after wins, we need the show more after losses. Um, because if not, we would just be kind of sitting depressed in our apartments and our homes with our loved ones who don't love this team

34:21as much as we do and they don't necessarily understand so they'd kind of have to keep their distance and be like, what's wrong with him? What's wrong with her? Why are they so upset? All right. But the fact that we can get on here, we can process, we can realize that there are other people who feel the same way as us who care as much as we do. And that's the reason why this is so frustrating is because we all love this team and we all care. And we just, uh, we expect things out of this team that we know they can deliver, but that's just what's so frustrating is that they're not delivering that right now. So all that being said, thank you guys so, so, so much for joining us tonight. Hopefully, um, the next PGL that I got in a couple of weeks, a rocket gets to make an appearance. That's always one of the most sad parts of, uh, of not getting to, uh, do these after a win is rocket not coming out, not getting to play the song, but I love you guys so much. Thank you guys for participating in the chat. Thank you so much for all the super chats. So much generosity to the night. Go ahead and leave a like before you shut off YouTube for the night. Helps the algorithm helps push this out to other magic fans that might be out there. Like I said, tomorrow night around 10 30 is going to be when the show starts. It's eight o'clock tip off, hoping for a win. Uh, show up, show out, and until then, let's go magic.
