Magic fans demand Jamahl Mosley’s job after 2nd half collapse vs. Pistons

It’s back to the Jamahl Mosley hate train for many Orlando Magic fans.

The Magic head coach has become a big target again on social media following Orlando’s 98-83 loss in Game 2 of the team’s first-round series against the Detroit Pistons on Wednesday night at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit.

After Orlando shocked the Pistons in enemy territory in Game 1, the Magic looked as though they were going to be in it until the end of Game 2. The score was tied at 46-46 at the half, but the wheels started to fall off for Mosley’s team in the third quarter, where the Pistons outscored the Magic, 38-16.

Of course, Magic fans are not happy with Mosley, as they now call for the team to fire him.

“Fire Jamahl Mosley tonight, this team is flatter than a month-old soda dawg,” a fan said.

“@OrlandoMagic Can we fire Mosley now?” a social media user on X shared.

“Bro 3 points in 6 mins are you deadass fire jahmal mosley man,” another one commented.

“@OrlandoMagic fire jamahl mosley…It’s clear he can’t get an offensive scheme with that super talented roster. 4 out and a ball handler with nobody else moving… if someone moves it’s pnr and spread? No screens on the off players? For at least distraction. Stupid ,” a different fan said.

“Jamahl Mosley just couldn’t leave Banchero in for 2 more minutes. God I can’t wait until he doesn’t have a job,” another comment read.

Facing calls for his job is nothing new to Mosley, who is in his fifth season as the Magic’s head coach. It has been a constant chorus among frustrated Orlando fans who feel that the Magic are not hitting their true potential under the 47-year-old Mosley.

In any case, the Magic will look to get the series lead again on Saturday, with Game 3 at Kia Center in Orlando.
