    Nice list. I’d personally pass on Sexton and Paul, and I’d add Paul George and KCP. Can you imagine adding George and another vet shooter like KCP to this team? We’d be nasty.

    I like your list and reasoning Soul Bro.  The Lakers sure love to trade away great role players.

    I'd love to get KAT to upgrade the center position with a better, bigger floor spacing big. Haven't seen any talk of him here, even though a lot of reports say Minnesota will need to trade him.

    I am not a fan at all. He is very expensive and disappears in The Play Offs.  He commits the dumbest fouls I’ve ever seen a supposed great player make. Also we have no Gobert to hide him on defense. 
     

    I’d rather get an elite guard personally.

    I think there are some good names further down the list of shooters we could add that wouldn’t break the bank, tho I am still hoping for the pipe dream of George and Monk. PG names are pretty bad tho, makes me hope more for a trade but more likely makes me expect Fultz to be back

    There aren’t a lot of great Free Agent PGs though I do think Monk and Suggs could work as starter potentially.  We might have to make a trade for a  PG if that’s what we want.  I want more high level talent personally so if we miss out on George I would trade for a high level PG.

    I’m a big Franz guy, and I don’t believe he deserves a max. I think his upside is still enormous, so I hope we come together for a decent contract.

    I am pretty confident they will come to an agreement.  He still has so much upside as you said. I think the way thing ended will light a fire under him. He took that loss hard. He just needs to be a league average three point shooter again.

    Outside of Denver there are no teams left who have won in the playoffs, and Denver is down 2-0. With how Brunson is playing I think the knicks could actually win the title

    Anthony Edwards would like to say hello to Mr Brunson.  He hasn’t lost a game yet against much better competition. If Denver is out it will probably come down to Minnesota and Boston.

    Just watched this earlier today. Bobby always does a great job. I thought it was interesting about not giving Franz a max extension. Suggs and Franz’s extensions should be worth watching this year. Franz cost himself some money it looks like with Westbrookian shooting. I had thought he would get a fun max but according to Bobby only Wiggins, Porter Jr and Garland are non All Stars to get a max that they really shouldn’t have received. He said there is no way he would give Franz the max because of his shooting.

    Arenas? Wow forgot about that horrendous contract. Yeah I have zero faith in them signing the right guy(s) aka Byombo and Ibaka. 

    Those were Dark times for sure.  Hopefully they get a Lewis or a Horace?  I’d be very happy with that level of talent but at guard this summer.

    TMac was not a huge contract. Hill was, but was seriously injured. Duncan should have been but Doc killed it. So almost doesn’t count. Lewis was the only big contract from the Dwight era. Some good contracts but not big. 
     

    since then? Crickets

    They will pay if we are a contender. They’ve shown it in the past. I have included a link that shows their salary rank each year.

     In 2010-11 they had the 2nd highest in the league (Arenas was on the team).

    In 2016-17 they were 8th (Biyombo).  So also be careful what you wish for Fan. They have to sign the right players

    Winning a championship is NOT the owners #1 priority goal. Prove me wrong. 

    We had one of the highest payrolls in the league in The Dwight Era.  Signed Lewis to a crazy max contract. Brought in Tmac, Hill, and almost Duncan to huge contracts……

    we would be at their level with the right move next season. Ant is just 22 and he is already unstoppable. 

    Paolo will also be 22 next year, hope he improves once again.

    Wow what a shocking series this has been. I agree I think The Ant era has arrived.  If they eliminate Denver I am rooting for Ant the rest of the way. That kid has no fear whatsoever.

    Yea that game was officiated like ass but it's whatever. Tough to get a Franz Wagner no show in your biggest game of the season. Can't wait for all the "trade Franz" talks from dumb Magic fans this off-season.

    I'm proud of the team for this season, best season in a long time. We'll be back and we'll be reloaded. 

    We all were disappointed in Franz in this game. But he averaged 25 a game at home so he is not a remotely a bad player. This was a great learning experience for us. Lets sign the right free agents and keep building for next year. Go Magic!!!

    Yea I'm sad we won't get a David Steele/Jeff Turner broadcast today but on the bright side we might get a Mike Breen BANG call. 

    I  love when we have the two broadcasts to hear the national perspective of our team.  We have one of the best local announcers in the league. 
     

    This has been such a great season this year. Win or lose I’m so proud of this team…..but we are going to win!  
     

    GO MAGIC!!!
