Doc has now just blown ³⁄₁₅ (20%) 3-1 leads in NBA history. Down from ³⁄₁₃ (23%).

He owes Boston and Orlando one for this statistical improvement.

Maybe he can coach one of them again.

1 week ago this sub decreed that the celtics were coming out of the east and the pistons were the worst 1 seed of all time

Jesus almost 2 decades. I’ve waited almost 2 decades to see this team win a playoff series. Thank you, Cade Cunningham, you literally saved my life.

GGs Magic. One hell of a series.

Franz with the 5D chess getting hurt so Mosley will get fired

dont let this have you forget that the celtics blew a 3-1 series lead

In the 2003 playoffs, the Pistons were the 1-seed while the Magic were the 8-seed. Magic took a 3-1 series lead but the Pistons made the comeback.

History has repeated itself in the 2026 playoffs.

Tobias harris wtf dude

if im paolo banchero, i better not hear anyone utter even a single syllable in that locker room. not a damn person better open their mouth. you better breathe through your nose

Magic fans must be feeling extreme whiplash. You went from hopeless after losing the first play-in game, to super hopeful when you guys got a 3-1 lead, to depression after this choke.

3-1 comebacks. So hot right now.

That’s it. That seals the deal. I am no longer a Magic fan. An absolute disgrace of a basketball team and a complete embarrassment to the sport. Getting cooked by Tobias in the year 2026 and letting him drop 30 in a game 7 is inexcusable. I have been a fan of this poverty franchise since 92’ in Shaq’s rookie season, and I have never seen such a pathetic and soft team. I will NOT be renewing my season tickets. I will be taking my fandom to the Bronx to become a Nets fan where they know how to run a serious franchise

The spirit of Doc lives on

If we trade everyone away and replace them with slightly worse players for dirt cheap, the Devos family can invest more in their private millitrary forces so they can get even better at massacring civilians.

Duren was only good in Game 7, he’d better thank his teammates. If they didn’t make the semis, his next contract would’ve been way smaller after that first round performance. 

Don’t know how far they can go with “Tobias Harris over me?” as their second option, but they seem to be having fun.

fr the magics fans were great and Paolo was a dog man. both our teams turned it to rugby scrums, roster construction question everywhere.

just happy this fucking shit is over. survive and advance. all that matters right now with all our team flaws out there in the open

Shoutouts to Orlando for making this series so fun. Sucks Paolo had to carry so hard tonight and no one showed up for him. One of the more surprising 1V8 seed matchups I’ve seen

GG Pistons. Personally I hope they’re are warmed up and just stomp the next series opponent.

Blowing the series lead sucks ass, but before the series I said the Magic would win 2 games and all the folks calling a sweep were misguided. But the Magic are too bipolar to sustain any regular competence so even after that high high of 3-1, you knew that had to get game 6 as their only chance. But alas.

The burden of increased expectations.

This is the first post season where two different teams completed 3-1 comebacks within the first round

I just fell to my knees in a meijer parking lot

Getting outscored by 58 in the final six quarters feels suboptimal for Orlando. What an incredible collapse. Fire Jamahl Mosley into the sun

OH WOAH OH IT’S TRAGIC OHHHH

Angel Reese is in shambles rn

I don’t think it’s shocking anyone that Detroit won this series but god DAMN do you have to be disappointed in how it happened if you’re an Orlando fan

Been waiting for this day since 2008.

Tobias Harris is married to my aunt

YKTPWA

Whoever comes out of the Cavs-Raps matchup is equipped to have a competitive series with this Pistons group, wouldn’t be surprised if it went 7 again. Really interested to see if Duren can have a big series next

You Know The Pistons Won The Series

TOBIAS 

Tristan Da Silva challenge of finishing an important game with a statline other than 0/0/0/0/0 and a negative +/- challenge

Level impossible

“Tobias Harris over me” yeah bro

Thank you for posting this.

I swear to fuck /r/nba mods don’t give a fuck about this subreddit in the playoffs, and it’s pathetic. So many missed game threads and post-game threads.

Tobias was locked in when Sixers advanced 

Great game from Cade as well 

What a disaster for the Magic,  Can Mosley finally be fired now 

#Pistons outscored the Magic by 58 since halftime of Game 6.

Sixers vs Tobias Harris ECF would be cinema

Great series from Cade, a lot of respect to Paolo, showed a lot of heart this series

Mosley gotta bounce back next year. This is unacceptable.

Magic finally gets a new coach. Good job boys

Jalen Suggs and the entire Magic team’s absolute disasterclass took away attention from all star Jalen Duren’s disastrous first 6 games

Defense showed up today, but this was the Tobias Harris game.

Someone said the Magic were like Mark in that RDCWorld skit where he kept passing the ball to Desmond

Tobias Harris…

I dont like it when that dudes on a heater because usually you wince when he pumpfake, shuffle shoots three but damn man he was making some very important shots. He had a dagger floater in game 6.

His dad did say he was a silent assassin or some shit like that.

Fuck the Orlando magic! Hope they enjoy Cancun because they’ll have to play another 82 games of prison ball next season with probably the same coach and no good picks to improve the roster. 

Good shit Pistons

• neutral fan, hate watching

Paolo gets a lot of shit but he was the only good player tonight for the Magic. Jalen Suggs shot like ass and Desmond Bane was just pedestrian today. like are we expecting Paolo to score 100? this guy’s treated like the problem yet he’s also the only good thing about this team at times lol

Orlando needs a Tobias

Every player on the Magic should give todays salary to Paolo, as an apology for playing like shit.

Have a magical time in cancun Orlando

Tobias fucking Harris.

We haven’t had two 3-1 comebacks in the same playoffs since 2020 (Denver Nuggets doing both) and 2016 for unique teams (Warriors and Cavs once). The playoffs have been bangers 🔥

5 first round picks to take 10 shots in an elimination game.

Game 7 Tobi. Maybe he just wasn’t fucking with Philadelphia.

We are witnessing one of the greatest playoffs ever. I’m just happy to have my team still in it

2026 Orlando Game 6 collapse will be used in the training manual to train future coaches

The Franz injury was so devastating. He was our primary Cade defender and I vehemently believe we win in ⁵⁄₆ with him in the lineup.

Either way, this team blew this series — especially game 6. At least Mosely is getting axed.

Damnnn losing Franz Wagner realllly affected Orlando Magic huh

Great series Orlando, didn’t think we had a chance at half time game 6. I really thought Paolo was super overrated before this series, but he deserves a ton of respect. He dragged that team to game 7 after Franz went down.

Magic weren’t pushovers that’s for sure. Franz injury really hurt them. Cade is Just That Guy.

Play the mfing song

Doc Rivers was smiling at Mosley somewhere

Blowing 3-1 leads so hot right now

I would have thought giving up a 31-0 run would be a season low-point for the Magic, but boy did this series prove me wrong
