Josh Robbins @JoshuaBRobbins
With 4:15 remaining in the first quarter, the largest cheers inside Orlando’s home arena tonight have been for New York guard Derrick Rose when Rose entered the game. – 7:29 PM

Fred Katz @FredKatz
The New Guys have combined for 16 points to start this game. Walker with three 3s and nine points. Fournier has seven. – 7:29 PM

Steve Popper @StevePopper
Completely uneducated guess here on fan makeup: 55% Knicks, 43% Magic, 2% “Want a ticket to an NBA game.” And 92% no mask. – 7:25 PM

Stefan Bondy @SBondyNYDN
A “Let’s Go Knicks” chant has started in Orlando. – 7:24 PM

Tommy Beer @TommyBeer
Knicks up 16-13
8 of the Knicks 9 FG attempts have come from behind the arc.
All 5 of their made FG’s have been 3-pointers.
This ain’t your older brother’s Knicks – 7:23 PM

Josh Robbins @JoshuaBRobbins
Magic rookies Jalen Suggs and Franz Wagner have been much more assertive offensively to begin this game than they were early in the regular-season opener or throughout the preseason. It’s just six minutes, but those six minutes resemble his summer-league play. – 7:22 PM

Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA
Kemba Walker either loves or hates Orlando. I’m not sure which, but he always destroys the Magic in Orlando. – 7:21 PM

Cody Taylor @CodyTaylorNBA
Jalen Suggs is off to a much better start tonight for the Magic, has four early points versus the Knicks. – 7:21 PM

Steve Popper @StevePopper
The five starters for the Orlando Magic have a total of 7 years of NBA experience. The Knicks…have more. – 7:20 PM

Mo Bamba has started the season 5 for 6 on his three-point attempts. – 7:18 PM

Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA
The Knicks just got the Magic to switch a PnR with 20 seconds on the shot-clock where Julius Randle drew Cole Anthony and Kemba Walker drew Wendell Carter Jr.
The result was Randle taking a leaning, off-balance jumper late in the clock. Little wins for the Magic are good for now! – 7:18 PM

Fred Katz @FredKatz
Shockingly, there are a lot of Knicks fans in Orlando. – 7:17 PM

Paul Garcia @PaulGarciaNBA
“We have to make sure we get back,” says Coach Malone of trying to limit the Spurs in the fast break.
SA had 26 fast break points vs ORL – 7:16 PM

Orlando Magic PR @Magic_PR
The @Orlando Magic have now made at least one three-point field goal in 1,131 consecutive games, dating all the way back to March 17, 2007.
It stands as the fifth-longest active streak in the #NBA and also the fifth-longest streak in @NBAHistory.

Good stat from @Alan Hahn on @KnicksMSGN pregame:
Obi Toppin averaged a speed of 4.78 miles per hour in the season opener – the highest speed among all rotation players in the NBA.
Data matches what our eyes told us. – 7:11 PM

Nerlens Noel is in uniform – but Thibodeau said he’s out earlier. So I guess that means he is getting closer. – 6:59 PM

I’m a little surprised the Orlando Magic haven’t filled their second Two-Way spot yet. They’re already down six players due to injuries and going into games with only 10 available guys. – 6:29 PM

Cole Anthony, at shootaround, pulled out a legendary quote when giving the Magic rookies advice:
“You gotta have a short-term memory. It’s something my dad would tell me and I saw on this show ‘Ted Lasso’ — You gotta be a goldfish. Be a goldfish, have a 10-second memory.” – 1:26 PM
