I would keep Vuc and Ross if the price is reasonable. Despite the playoff performance we needed them to get to the playoff. Fournier needs to go though. He can't make shots and is a huge liability on defense. We need to sign a real scorer if we want to go further in the playoff, or hope that Fultz turn out to be a star.

Harris cannot guard Leonard, period. In my opinion Gordon is a superior defender than Harris, and Kawhi scored at will even when we put 2 defenders on him most of the time. (27.8ppg, 7rpg, 55.6% in the series) Kawhi will destroy anybody Philly puts on him. Gasol is a great defender with a lot more playoff experiences than Embiid. Another issue with Philly is that Simmon is not a threat outside the arc while all Raptors starters can shoot 3. As long as Raptors do not turn the ball over Simmons will be useless on offense. The team with the best player on the court usually win the series, and Raptors has the best player in this series. Raptors in six.

Not sure what's the big deal is.... I remember there was one year there was a team that has 4 hall of famers, and lose to a team that didn't have any NBA 1st team player in the team. Ironically, Cavs actually have one of the 4 hall of famer in the team. So what does this mean? Magic just need to play their game and they will be fine.

I still think we have a chance to close out 76ers in game 6. And if we cannot do it simply because 2 of our starters cannot play, then ultimately we will have problem play against the elite teams such as Cavs and Lakers in the future. Andre Miller is old and has been playing almost all game long from game 1 to game 5. He won't be as effective as he was in game 1 or 2. That and Rashard Lewis is finally starting to look like an all-star in game 5. Lee has been playing very well but so is MP. If Lewis and Turk can play like they've played all season we will be fine.

I don't think letting Turk to make the last shot is that bad of an idea. If you go with Howard at around 6-7 sec left, they may foul him immediately. And if Howard miss the second shot they can run their transition offense to win the game. Letting Hedo to make the last second shot at least guarantee an OT and I have no doubt that we can beat them in overtime.
