    Giannis can sit for 4 games and MIL would still win 4-0.

    Yawn.

    Gary is playing well. Got a wide open 3, playing good D on Giannis. He did get dunked on though.

    Did not know 2 former Rockets were starting for the Magic. Also, I remember how we wanted to get Vucevic and he's still pretty good.

    You think Gary is better at warming the bench than Carroll? That's the scenario we are looking at here. Mike D gave up on Gary Clark, so he certainly would not have played in the playoffs except garbage minutes.

    Orlando has been decimated by injuries.

    the option of clark is so much better than carroll. carroll is on the edge of retirement.

    Gary clark was a $ saving move. dumped before his contract became guaranteed. LTS wins once again. that was much more of the reason

    I'm a Gary stan. He always makes winning plays he just couldn't shoot consistently and Clutchfans hated him for it..

    Gary's team is up 10 when he is the primary defender on Giannis. This can get back quick but he is doing well early.

    I know I voted Buck but Let's go Magic! How embarrassing would it be for the "MVP" to be knocked out of the first round by the 8th seed lol
