Rico

I think this is BS if Corey really wanted to be here he would have said something by now, he knew going into free agency that the magic only had the MLE available to sign a free agent, and according to his close friends he still wanted to be here.If the Magic offered the full mle and he still has not made a decision it means he doesnt want to be here period. he was just saying that to get other teams attention.

I dont know man with all the rumors going around,the interview in the la times were he didnt even mention us, It doesnt sound good to me,I wonder if D12 call this guy already no mention of that anywere, have they talk, did they make an offer,If you miss out on CMagg,for freaking over rated as hell on this board CDuhon I will be really disappointed,once again,how hard was to lure a guy that "allegedly" wanted to play here. there was only one team that could mess that up,you got it the one that starts with an M.

Your poor little COMMONWEALTH is OWNED by the U.S. And you will be owned until you fully declare independencia from the U.S. which you Boricua are so scared to do. Right? How many binding plebiscites will you have till you finally can agree to relinquish your very important U.S. citizenship. You only have to blame yourselves for coming to the U.S. mainland. The U.S. government is NOT the main impetus for immigration to the U.S. Boricua seek to get out of that hell hole called Puerto Rico to seek better pay, better life, and to vote for El Presidente, things you cannot do in Puerto Rico. You can just hop on a United Airlines flight from Luis Munoz Marin Airport to JFK anytime you want because Puerto Rico is a TERRITORY of the United States.if Puerto Rico is a country, then relinquish your US citizenship.

I dont belive this news not for a second,this is the same news paper that made the april fools prank on Carlos some time ago were they had him traded to Cleveland,remember? to me this news paper is not reliable.

quote: Originally posted by Soul Bro:***Breaking*** I was just relayed info from a high Magic source that the Magic DO have interest in Maggette. In fact, he was the first name mentioned by the source regarding targeted FAs. Man I hope your source is right,this would be huge for us.

This is great news,if the Magic really want to field a championship caliber team they have to pony up some cash,especially to fill up that beautifull new Arena they are building, I personally think they will go over the cap.

I like your proposal the only thing I would change would be the draft pick,I would also go for Arthur.

no way I do this trade, what is wrong with you people. throw in scola and then will talk, until then dont even answer Houstons call.

how about trade JJ and carlos future 1st to seattle for Chriss Wilcox?

Trade for j Calderon,convince Maggette to sign for mle. PG Calderon SG Maggette SF Lewis PF Battie C Howard

quote: Originally posted by Starting at Guard...:Can you rename this the trade and free agent signing ideas thread? Here is what I would love: Trade Hedo and Redick to CHA for Emeka Okafor. This trade helps our front court tremendously by providing a defensive presence at PF with solid shot blocking and rebounding skills. Okafor can also score in the low post and has a better 10-15 foot jumper than Dwight. If the rotation is set properly, either Dwight or Emeka will always be on the floor so we will always have a low post scorer and defender in the game. A huge plus. Sign Mickael Pietrus with the full MLE. He is an excellent defender, has great size for the SG position, can play and defend the SF position and can also defend PG. While he lacks good free throw shooting abilities and isn't known to be a scorer, at 25 years old he has a ton of time to develop this part of this game. At the moment his defensive presence at SG would be a bigger benefit versus the many good to great SG in the Eastern Conference. Sign Chris Duhon to back-up Jameer Nelson. Let Arroyo and Evans leave, and resign Dooling to have flexibility as a backup SG/PG. Terminate Adonal Foyle's contract. We have a team option for this coming season and I'd rather spend the $1.3m giving fans free Magic cups than pay this stiff again. Draft a SF, someone who can slash to the basket and play good defense. If we have two picks, get another SF to develop who can also play SG or just get an offensive oriented SG who is lights out from 3-point land. That is my huge wish list for this offseason! That would give us the following team: C: Howard, Gortat PF: Okafor, Battie, Cook SF: Lewis, [Draft Pick] SG: Pietrus, Bogans, [Draft Pick] PG: Nelson, Duhon, Dooling I think that is a very good team and an excellent foundation for the future. Lots of youth tied up to long term deals. We could have a championship caliber team for many, many years. Exellent post man, I could not said it better my self this would be the ultimate line up, if Otis could pull this off it would be the best offseason ever gm of the year. This would work also with Josh Smith at PF and Maggetty at SG,I would be real happy with either or.

I really dont think obtaining Smith its so far fetch,this guy is best friends with Howard they played toghether before,trust me he has to know that a front line of him and Howard means multiple championships. I think that 7 or 8 mill should be good for this guy.

I dont know about you people, but a front line of josh smith and dwight howard would be sick.slide hedo to SG and bring this young stud.if this fails then bring on Maggetty,hopefully fran will be here and tony would be 100%,that should take care of our weakness at PF.

quote: Originally posted by gporter:If we could use JJ and the MLE to get Calderon, I would do it. Though he will be a future Magic killer! lol Seriously though, we are probably going to end up using the MLE to bring Franny over, and I wouldn't be mad if we did that either. Man I hope you are wrong I want the MLE for Corey.

Pistons tried to make their run but got rolled over in that fourth when the Magic couldn't missed. Well deserved win. Congrats to the Magic and Magic fans. I'm sure you guys are hyped over the win. It feels great to have this monkey of our backs.
