So happy! Let’s Go Magic!!!

Trey Murphy just signed an extension. I am hoping to get Suggs done today for a similar salary. https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/41925450/sources-trey-murphy-pelicans-agree-4-year-112m-deal

https://www.espn.com/nba/insider/story/_/id/41819382/nba-contract-extensions-know-ahead-monday-deadline What I would offer: Five years, $165 million. The total amount in guaranteed money is comparable to what the Suggs can sign in the offseason with a team that has cap space, plus one more year. The Magic have a proven track record of structuring contracts that decline each year. However, because of luxury tax and apron concerns, an extension would start at $32 million and increase each season. This is from Bobby Marks at ESPN. I’d try to get him for around 28-30 per season myself.

I agree with your initial assessment. Centers are hard to come by right now in my opinion. I’m glad they locked him up on a tradable contract. I’ll be interested in your deep dive into our cap moving forward. How do you think this will affect Suggs Extension?

I don’t like the trade for Minnesota personally. I am not a hug KAT fans but I hate the fit with Randle. That Gobert trade is really haunting The Timberwolves. .

Congrats to Curry and Team USA!

Steph is amazing!

Franz is going to take heat for this game with the national media. Looks a lot like game 7 unfortunately.

Franz had one of his best games ever yesterday. He had two monster dunks on France. One was on Wemby the other was on the entire French Team. He had all kinds of confidence in this game. Definitely worth watching the highlights. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bw17NT7154k https://www.espn.com/olympics/story/_/id/40710523/germany-tops-france-greece-alive-olympic-knockout-round

I’m with you if the price is right for Simons. The rumors are Grant will be traded to The Lakers.

Just watched The Wagner’s play. Franz had a good scoring game but went 0-6 from three. His drives are so special though.

No sir just the top article on ESPN.com when I looked this morning. Slow news time of the year. I thought it was worth a look.

Franz Wagner ranked 10th for Olympic Players 2024-25 estimated projections: Offense: +2.6 | Defense: +0.5 | Overall: +3.1 Estimated RAPTOR loves Wagner, who also showed up surprisingly high in our first-round NBA playoffs player rankings. But it isn't every day when a 22-year-old hits the benchmarks that Wagner reached last season. He joined Jayson Tatum, Kevin Durant, Tracy McGrady and Kevin Garnett as the only players since the 1976 NBA-ABA merger to rank in the 60th percentile of NBA players or better in points per 100 possessions, assist rate, turnover rate, rebound rate and defensive RAPTOR. In that context, Wagner's massive recent contract extension was no surprise, and it's going to be exciting to see what he does alongside his brother Moritz and fellow NBA players Dennis Schroder and Daniel Theis on the German national team.

I don’t see the move right now. I understand your point though and we are mostly on the same page. We will most likely need a PG that can shoot. Who would be your targets for discussion? It’s the slow time of year. lol

I think our roster is set for the time being. Let’s let the guys play for a few months to see what we really have. We have enough assets to make a move down the line if it’s needed. The last bit of news for The Magic is Suggs Extension.
