Edit: moving to trade thread

Well if Vuch was ever being traded he isn’t now.

Clippers too.

Clippers say it’s late at night and you’re dreaming.

Why would it be a mirage? We all get you don’t like him (which is fine) but now his shooting is a mirage and as a 22 year old his numbers are going to go back to his career averages? You just continue to double down on D-Lo but this particular argument against him is your worst one yet.

I’d like AD to go to the Bucks. Power to a small market team. I’m here for that. Eff LA and NY markets.

For who? Vuch or Ross?

We like our guys.

Simmons and Grant for Fultz LOLLLLZZZZ

Yea. I’m wondering could that be some coaching/system? Is it because he’s been the primary scorer on the majority of those teams? Maybe if the offense was predominately run through him that wouldn’t be the case?

I’m not sure it’s that simple. If you average 23 a game in the nba as a 23 year old there’s something there.

Cliff made Vuch at least serviceable on that end.

Yea I at the very least see the Skelton of what could be. I was just looking at some of his numbers and highlights. I actually want him now. I always forget he’s AG’a age just 23 and has improved every year. I was his shooting numbers didn’t dip this year but if he can get around 38% from deep he can be a really good scorer in this league. So what does it take? Does Chicago just want the salary relief? Would they take Fournier for Lavine simply for the 2 less year of having to pay him? Maybe the okc pick too?

Imagine AG and Lavine on the same team? I’m not a big fan of Lavine (wouldn’t even consider him at PG) but I think it would watch the games again. That’s pure entertainment. Fultz/Lavine/Ag/Ji/Bamba Shooting might be the worst in the league but get your popcorn.

To get downvoted I guess.

That would explain the total lack of anything happening.

Like I said in my previous post smaller market teams are going to have to get creative. Take some calculated risks. Get lucky. Dallas has done that the past few months. Still no telling if that will be enough because as much as I like Luka and Porz, it’s gonna take at least 2 more big names to keep up with these other teams.

The nba is full blown WWE reality TV. I think it is hard, as a nba fan of a team like the magic, to see the light at the end of the tunnel with these super teams being formed and star players demanding trades to certain big market teams. I think the regular season in the nba kind of sucks. The playoffs will be fun (especially the conf finals) but the regular season is a drag. We know whose the 2-4 teams that can legit win it. Itll be interesting to see what happens. Teams like Orlando will really have to get creative or lucky (maybe both) to really contend with these super teams because I don’t think this is a fad—this is the nba now.

They’ll be fine. Ainge will turn Kyrie into 5 first rounds or something stupid.

Boston fire sale confirmed? lol

Fultz is like my #1 option assuming his value is a low as people think. I was just watching highlights of him in college today and he was so good. Crazy saying was when it wasn’t even 2 years ago lol

Yea look what you did!!!!! Lol Either way people seem to have stronger opinions on Bamba than any other rookie I can remember.

No one wants you to leave or anyone to leave. Here’s the thing. We’re all sick of losing and want to win. We just have different ideas on how we feel is the best way of going about fixing that. Some people just want to win now and are sick of being a bottom feeder and want any move that makes us better today. Some people still want to tank. Some people want to win as soon as possible but don’t want to take shortcuts that leave us as an average to good team but no real title hopes. At the end of the day we’re all magic fans and want the same thing. Don’t leave the forum. You’re a real fan and there aren’t many real magic fans out there. This is a good community here for the most part. Even when debates go more into the argument space most people can makeup after and be cool with each other. All this talk will just make it that much better when we’re finally good.
