It’s starting to look that way man. I saw today Butler returned to Minnesota for a meeting with thibs to reiterate for him that he wants to be traded. Minnesota got Butler with 2 years left for Dunn who looked like a complete bust, Lavine with 1 year left on his contract and a pick swap. To me it would make sense that they should expect less than that with jimmy butler having only 1 year remaining on his contract and the “super team” landscape of today’s NBA free agency.

Jimmy butlers trade value has to be an all time low right now..... would love to see us fleece them in a trade with Fournier, Simmons, and a pick. If we make the playoffs this year I could see butler signing an extension and if we don’t all we would lose out on is a late draft pick. He wants to be around a bunch of guys who play hard and are constantly practicing and trying to get better... well say hello to AG, Bamba, Ross, Isaac, Birch, Augustine, Iwundu, and Briscoe! Just keep him away from vuc lol

What it sounds like to me is he wants to be anywhere but Toronto since he’s trying to play the betrayal card too. Plus for some reason I think he might be a small market kind of guy and he might even be excited to reunite with Ross? It would be good for the magic to have a vet come in with so much playoff experience like Lowry has

So with all this Kyle Lowry and Jimmy Butler drama going on... how about going after Lowry on the cheap in a 3 way deal. Gives us a veteran with major playoff experience to help lead the team and his 2 years left on his contract would give us more time to find our franchise pg. We would also have another huge expiring deal in 2 years along with mozgovs. something like this maybe? http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=y73cgqwb I would say try and go after butler ourselves but I really don’t think we can retain him and don’t want to give up picks for a rental. I think he and kyrie have plans of playing with each other also

Actually I’ll add Rubio in there too he’s still 27 and looked awesome last season but like kemba I think it’ll be hard to lure him away from the jazz

I hope we get one of Kemba Rozier Russell or Brogdon

Whoever posted this must think very highly of our franchises competency lol

He’s got that Louisiana GRIT lol who wrote that about him?

Lmao damn I was hoping to hook someone into a hot take of Jarell > Mario. Made it too obvious though... Im extremely happy with this trade Jarell seems to have that Louisiana GRIT in him and will be able to contribute. Best part is we got him for practically nothing. Another very smart maneuver by Weltham!

Ok magic fans if you could have one of these players on the team who would it be, player A or player B??? Player A was a first round draft pick, and is a PF that has played 3 seasons in the NBA and in 2017 averaged: 22.8mpg/7.7ppg/44.6fg%/34.7 3p%/4.4rpg /1apg/.7bpg and is getting paid in 2018 season: 2.4 Mill Player B was a first round draft pick and is a combo forward that has played 3 seasons in the NBA and in 2017 averaged 22.1mpg 9.6ppg/44.2fg%/33.7 3p%/3.7rpg /1.4apg/.4bpg And is getting paid in the 2018 season: 8.6 Mill

He just turned 26 but has steadily improved every season with increasing minutes

How do you think Powell does in an expanded role? He has impressed me in the past...

Woj firecracker...

Magic might be one of the best teams in the league if they switched too it lol teams with the most athletic players would dominate

Ooooooo that would be awesome for the dunk contest

Random thought... how insane would it be if the nba changed how you sub a player in and out to how they do in the nhl

I would like to see a Kevin love Otto porter swap

ATL NYK (assuming KP sits out this year) Clevland (assuming they trade love) SAC Brooklyn LAC Phoenix Charlotte Orlando Detroit Memphis Dallas

What would be yalls way too early lottery selection order for 2019?

Damn can’t believe philly didn’t top this

Man I just don’t see the raptors convincing kawhi to resign

Agreed! Hypothetically if he was in this draft class after his last season in Europe I think he would have been taken in the beginning of the 2nd round when there was that big run of pgs. I’m hoping we found a diamond in the rough with him

Seriously! Mad respect for AG

Its that got damn Lochness Monster taken everybody tree fiddy!!

From what I’ve seen in summer league Bamba, Ayton, Knox, and carter jr. I’d also take doncic over him of course
