MAGIC-UGH MYSTERY TOUR

In Orlando Bass, Jameer played--latter, years ten,
He is back tonight since who knows when.
Instead of 3 new guys at once, Jameer will start,
Back to the Bench (handled like a pro) is Marcus Smart.

On Bass being sidelined, Tommy wants to "...spank someone."
Green, Nelson, Zeller, Sully, AB to start Q1.
Jameer can pass! Feel bad for AB,
Last games 0 and 15 in shooting the three.

Cs opened the game with an almost 6-minute drought,
Brad should send in the Bench--all Starters out!
Smart!
Heart!

Cs were 2 for 21 in Q1,
Within 17 when it was done.
Now 2 for 22 as Pressey tried a three,
Not the Pace and Space Brad wants to see.

16 Bench points Magic, to 15 Cs overall,
Cs need to TRY, plus gotta move the ball.
GREEN hard to the hoop, he looks alert!
Bass helping out, Cs need a scoring spurt!

Cs a (brief) 6-0 run that started with D!
Magic missing shots is what I'd like to see.
Cs are flat--no energy, no spark,
Better competition at a local park.

Cs within 23 to start Q3,
AB a black eye? Punched by Brad was he?
Zeller block! Always running the floor,
Playing with Olynyk, these guys MUST score!

Jameer coast to coast! Finally AB FOR THREE!
Magic taking it out on us for home loss to Philly.
AB FOR THREE! AB FOR THREE! Streak!
Think the Cs have already left for Xmas week.

After all their hard work, mostly Zeller and AB,
Cs within 25 at the end of Q3.
Crowder is in, he's running like crazy,
Thrilled he looks engaged and not at all lazy.

JAMEER FOR THREE (deep)! Wright at the rim,
TURNER FOR THREE! Bench building rhythm.
Cs a 12-0 run on (Jack Black's?) Tenacious D,
Jameer great steal, great dribble, inspired is he!

Bass rebounded, rebounded, made the shot, great yell!
Cs invested in Q4--at last!--you could tell.
Sweet tribute to Jameer--he was hoping not to cry.
Brad giving Crowder and Wright an extended try!

Jameer took the charge! Cs three TOs in a row,
Cs doing "Hack-A-Payton"--good results did show.
Cs a 27-5 run, OLYNYK FOR THREE!
Terrible call on Olynyk, worst one we did see.

Magic's O'Quinn played well, refs helped in the end,
Cs got so close the rules they did bend.
Doesn't excuse Cs' three quarters so bad,
But it sure did interrupt the momentum we had.

Cs lost by 5 after AB FOR THREE!
Not bad if the first 3 Qs you did see.
Only in Q4 Cs looked almost right,
Merry Christmas to all and to all a goodnight.
