2020-21 NBA Playoff Discussion Thread
SwishMagic2 replied to CTMagicUK's topic in Orlando Magic Forum
Would be cool to see that matchup. An aging CP3 against a young Trae. A series I would be hopeful to go 7 games. -
His dad grew 7 inches in one summer in college, so have been watching to see any kind of growth spurt since being at Vandy...nothing so far. Above average college basketball player, but potential nowhere near his Hall of Fame father. Interested to see where Pippen Jr will end up whether that be this year or years down the line.

Scotty Pippen Jr coming out of Vanderbilt. Potential late 1st/2nd rounder in the next couple years. Going into his Junior season this year. Some accolades below from his first two years... -2021 All-SEC First Team -2021 Associated Press All-SEC First Team -2021 NABC All-District First Team -2020 SEC All-Freshman Team

Would love to see a splash made to move up, but I wouldn't move up for Suggs. If there was a possibility where we could trade w/ Houston or Cleveland up to 2 or 3 then I would like to see that to get a player like Mobley or Green, but might be a little pricey to move up in that range. I see us staying put at 5 and 8.
-
Would have been jumping into cold water here. Too soon of a move for a young coach who is still learning. Glad we will have someone (whoever that may be) that has more coaching experience at this level. Hoping it is someone that will light a spark within this young team.

The top 3-5 in this draft is impressive, but I think the best player that comes out of this draft when we look back on it in 7 years will be picked somewhere in the 7-14 range. There is a gem out there, now it is up to Weltman and Co. to find him.

It will be interesting to see how this series turns out. I do not think we have seen the last of either Giannis or Trae though...should add for a dramatic Eastern finals -
Would be glad to see both Barnes and Bouknight in Orlando this coming year. I do have a good feeling ab these two picks as well, hopeful that they can make an immediate impact.
-
What potential trades do you foresee the Magic being involved with in the draft? Trade up/down? Any roster guys or other picks incorporated?

Whoever wins the Finals this year is due for a championship. I'm just happy the "regulars" are watching from their couches. Gonna be cool to see either PG13, CP3, Giannis, or Trae hold up their first Larry O'Brien Trophy. -
As young as this team is and as low as the bar is set right now for this upcoming year, I'd let Weltman utilize those two draft picks at 5 and 8 to build upon the core youthful group and let them learn and grow together. Need a more firm foundation in my opinion before we start adding players like Siakam or whoever else in the mix. Just adding Siakam isn't going to take us to the playoffs with this roster anytime soon.
-
Besides Mosley and Hardaway, who else are we considering for HC? Any other updates or interviews lined up?
-
My ideal Mock Draft: #5: Jalen Green (some way, somehow falling to us w/ Kuminga or someone else sneaking into the top 4) #8: Davion Mitchell #33: JT Thor My realistic Mock Draft: #5: Jonathan Kuminga #8: Keon Johnson #33: Jeremiah Robinson-Earl Thoughts??
-
What Suggs lacks in length when comparing to Kuminga, he makes up for in grit. Watching him in the tourney this spring got me out of my seat. However, he has a drive that other teams picking #1-4 won't want to pass on so I sadly do not see him falling to us at #5.

Hello, Magic family!
Excited to be here with you all to converse on all things Magic. Recently moved to the Orlando area with my wife and am very much looking forward to being a part of this awesome group with some of the best fans in the world! Also stoked to be close and attend a lot more games this upcoming year.
Best to all,
