Marc Stein, ESPN.com
No one is blaming Frank Vogel for any of the Orlando Magic’s problems right now.
Vogel has somehow crafted a top-10 defense out of the Magic so far this season. It has become part of the team’s identity. And it has kept them in games.
But something is still clearly off about the Magic. They still have a lot of work to do. And Vogel is pulling a lot of levers to try to make things work. The latest one is that starting lineup change. But players the Magic needed to step up into expanded roles — like Aaron Gordon — simply have not done so.
