The Orlando Magic have had a bit of a weird season.
To start, that’s exactly how they looked.
But before you knew it, Paolo got hurt.
Soon after, so did Franz Wagner.
Then, Mo Wagner.
Then Jalen Suggs etc.
In a moment like this, as a fan you’re excited.
It was a great home win to punch their ticket to the postseason.
As a result, sometimes fans can get a little carried away
Ah Yes.
I would expect nothing less from a fanbase about to play the Celtics who are in this situation.
This is what life is like as the Champs.
As far as I’m concerned, this is a badge of honor.
The target is on your back.
Everyone wants to be the one to take you down.
People are often loud about beating the Celtics until it becomes time to actually beat the Celtics.
Then, not so much.
In many ways, I’m thankful.
I’ll take all the free bulletin board material I can get heading into a title defense playoff run.
I didn’t exactly think they needed any additional motivation, but I certainly won’t turn it away.
