Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony thinks that feeling fatigued/too comfortable since the All-Star break ended has hurt the team as of late (2-game losing streak).

(via Orlando Magic):

Reporter: “Are you guys starting to feel the pressure of the playoffs coming closer? And do you think that’s maybe affecting how these last couple of games have gone?”

Anthony: “I don’t know if I’d say we’re particularly feeling that pressure, I’d just say maybe I think it’s definitely some fatigue there when you get to this point in the season. All-Star break, had some time off, ten games we’ve played since the break, just a little fatigue, a little bit of comfort, we had some wins, and then you get comfortable. That’s the best part of this league, once you get comfortable, you gon’ get knocked right off your feet, and I think that’s what happened to us these last two games. So, we gotta go pick it back up and put it back together.”
