This week in Magic talk
The shows spent the week on Orlando's opening night loss to Atlanta, with Paolo Banchero putting up an efficient 35 and 10 but the Magic stalling late. There's been focus on whether new coach Sean Sweeney can fix the offense, with preseason signs pointing to more three-point attempts and pick-and-roll usage. The talk also keeps coming back to whether the Magic can become a 50-win team, with some hosts naming Franz Wagner as a potential trade candidate if things don't click.
