Where is the focus?

At this point, this season for the magic truly almost feels like a stand up performance. There is a statistic that is just being thrown around way too much about how this starting 5 this season has been the most successful in scoring per 100 possessions vs their opponents. What kills me, is who gives a shit about scoring per 100 possessions when the magic are like 3-9. Why don’t we go cherry pick more stats to try and pull the wool over eyes. There have been guys this year in their expanded role that I would say have been close to impressive. Sadly, the only thing at the end of the day that even matters is the winning, and there isn’t a stat out there that can help the magic in that category. I understand the excitement around different things, and I understand about what the future may hold. But holy shit, to not be competitive since 2010 truly is one down right embarrassing, and two hard to keep showing up for night in and night out. I’m not a GM by any stretch of the imagination, but I can tell you my goals of being competitive would have much higher than my goals for the future. Everyday is about working for the future and you can’t win the future in an hour. Winning today is something that is a lot easier to focus on and sadly it feels like it’s fuck all when it comes to the right now.
