MagicMan1979

That’s a great summary of what is likely to happen. We definitely won’t add any shooting lol Some posters understand asset management. Cap space is so overrated in the modern NBA

Why we won’t have as many assets. The free agent class sucks. Can’t use any expiring contracts.

We are all Magic fans. We want the team to win. Pointing out that has 1 three pointer all year doesn’t mean we hate him. He would be better off the bench….Great kid in my opinion.

You must be jumping up and down we didn’t do anything lol

This is what scares me as well. That would be a wasted year in my opinion.

Least fun trade deadline in years. Very little movement league wide.

Just do something please. I am really surprised we are keeping Harris also.

Lol so funny. The whole NBA has been talking about him for months.

McDermott to The Pacers.

I was thinking the same thing. There are usually several deals at the end.

Most of the guards we’ve been interested in are still available. Come on Otis get er done!

Your great at this Jay lol

I agree with both of your takes on Murray. He’s the best of the players out there but isn’t perfect by any stretch. I just happened to see that article about the game since I didn’t watch it and thought I’d provide a little context. Murray seems like a Laker to me at this point. Brogdon would more of a get out of Paolos way when he’s cooking type of guy. Him spotting up would help a lot.

Dejounte Murray scored the last seven points in an 11-0 run to open the overtime for Atlanta and finished with 19 points. https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/39455180/hawks-overcome-steph-curry-60-ot-win-vs-warriors He scored their last 7 points of OT if that helps any?

Everyone always pushes teams to play like everyone else and subscribe to an orthodoxy. Everyone was probably waiting for the Magic to return to Markelle Fultz and a more traditional lineup to close the game. Perhaps they would have if the Magic were behind and needed to pick up points. But that lineup had its struggles, too. It allowed Gobert to roam the paint and hunt blocks because of Fultz's hesitancy to shoot from the perimeter -- he still had 10 points because of his willingness to drive and attack and his talent finishing around shot-blockers. https://orlandomagicdaily.com/posts/orlando-magic-finally-unleashing-their-big-identity Our Death Line Up won us the game for sure. But Fultz was a big contributor last night. No one hates Fultz to be clear.

I was never a Cole guy but was liking him more at the start of the season. He has really fallen off or regressed to his usual selfish nature. He is just not efficient at all and is down to 32% from three. It’s too bad he doesn’t have much value and has that poison pill contract. I’d like to have a starting PG that can shoot and have Fultz run the second unit. He’s a way better player than Cole despite his lack of shooting.

Huge win. Go Magic. Loved the big lineup!

I was nervous when he was the last envelope. Congrats to Paolo and The Magic!!

Keep him as the back up. He’s better than Cole that’s for sure.

I think Brogdon would help a lot and doesn’t have a long term contract and wouldn't cost much at all. Junkie I’ve read a lot of your posts. You know more about the league than this kid by far. Did you see his exciting players? Zach LaVine, Buddy Hield, Donovan Mitchell or Gary Trent Jr. were the names he gave. Zach Lavine would take a hell of a lot of shots away from our two stars. Buddy Hield is the same age as Brogdon and Bogdanovich. Trent Jr is a free agent and hasn’t had a great year. Mitchell is the only one without issues to me and he’s going no where. There is no perfect player. Can we please get some shooting though by trading Harris and a pick?

This writer doesn’t know what he’s talking about. I disagree with his whole mindset. He’s waiting for some perfect player that doesn’t exist. I especially disliked his thoughts on getting a PG to play make and take the ball out of Paolo and Franz’s hands.

He would be a great fit but like others have said it depends on if Mitchell wants to be there long term. I still like Mitchell a lot as well. He’s killing it this year.

Most all of the national media guys have him making it in outright. But worst case he will be an injury reserve for sure.

Good to get a win. Go Magic!

If he can stay healthy. He looks like a Star for many years.
