    Toss up. Either Vince or Lewis. I voted for Lewis because of his salary and I don't think small ball wins championships. Now if we were to move him to SF, maybe I'd vote for Vince. How could we dump his salary is the real question. My (hope-filled) answer: Turk and Bosh (snt) for MP, Lewis and Gortat. Would they do it? Maybe not but it's worth a shot.

    Magic ''Anticipate'' Keeping Carter...

    quote: Originally posted by jack l j:at the end of the day if you owned an nba team and you could pick either jj of lee to start your team who would it be? Wow. I still give the nod to Lee because of his upside. However, JJ has earned his stripes and closed the gap. Every team would want either guy.

    The Hometown Kid: Dominique Jones

    quote: Originally posted by TheNameIsOrlando:Your allowed to work out with NBA players while in highschool/college? I believe so as long as you aren't receiving money. He used to be Amare's PG at the T-Mac summer tourney in Central FL. Amare is also from L-Dub. Tracy is from Auburndale.

    The Hometown Kid: Dominique Jones

    Dominique thinks he's going to be drafted between 15 and 25. He's being flown everywhere. 11 cities in a couple of weeks. He's in SF right now with GS. I think we could use his aggressiveness off the bench. He could drive and kick it to JJ (assuming he re-signs) or MP. Or he could simply float that bad boy in the basket.

    Sorry guys!

    Sorry guys!

    What a classic Junkie thread of old. Gang, looks like there was some truth to Vince wanting to play for the Magic. As to the Amare rumors from our current summer, while I've not heard anything, my guess is that he would finally want to join the Magic. Same goes for my boy Dominique Jones, who has often played with Tracy, Amare and others in the summer.

Devos wants a championship? Something tells me he could buy out vince and if we could talk Dwade into it Devos would make the money back pretty quickly i imagine tickets would be sold every night. No

Miami doesn't consider Beasley a part of their future anymore and is even looking at lopsided trades in an effort to clear additional cap space. Via ESPN Wow. He is surely worth a cheap trade. Perfect candidate for our TE. But could Miami be going for 3 hot shots in FA??? Are we looking at a Wade, James and Bosh combo??? No worries, we have Vince and Lewis to take over in crunch time!!!

    Update from Magical

    quote: Originally posted by TheRevTy:Gortat and Pietrus/Bass/Anderson? They have Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph, so I don't know what interest they'd have in Gortat, but that is who he said would be offered. Yeah, that one doesn't seem to make much sense for Memphis.

    Update from Magical

    quote: Originally posted by TheRevTy:Hello, fellows! Update this morning which gives a feeling for how many options the Magic have: Yes, Joe Johnson is still in play. Atlanta is fed up with Josh Smith and want to move Horford to PF, so they may be interested in Gortat in a Joe sign and trade. But this is within the division, so who knows how willing ATL will be to deal with us. Rudy Gay is also a possibility, but the Magic don't think he deserves a max contract - closer to 6-9 million per year. If Memphis decides to sign and trade him (they've said they'll match any offer - doubtful) we will be in the fold. However, if a team like the Nets offer him a max or anywhere near it, we're out. Interestingly, this seems to be Otis's favorite option because it would be a tweak as opposed to an overhaul. Just add Gay in at SF and draft Gortat's replacement. (Yes, it seems we would keep Vince in this scenario - and Rashard would stay largely at the 4). Otis will float Gortat to move up in the draft. Apparently Otis does this almost every year - offers up 1 or 2 players for top picks in the draft. He offered Hedo the year OJ Mayo came out (3 years ago?). Apparently they are very enamored with Wesley Johnson and feel he is exactly what we need at SF. In terms of bigs, they like the Amar'e idea and will push for this. Apparently Bosh is also an option, but all indications are that he'll ride LeBron's coattails wherever he goes. Otis has received clearance to use the TPE if it helps bring in a star. The feeling is that if we can get someone to bite on a package of Vince + some combination of Gortat/Pietrus/Bass/Anderson, we'll add a star, and then go young with our bench. If you don't see Gortat traded at the draft, look for him to be shopped hard when free agency starts up. Unlikely that he'll be here next year. It is likely going to come down to choosing between JJ and Barnes. The guess is that JJ has the advantage because of his history with the team, but Barnes could be cheaper - though we don't have his Bird Rights. We'll try again to get CJ, offering him around 2.5 million. Rev, what would be offered by us in a s-n-t for Gay and Conley?

Some sleepers who I think could become 20 ppg scorers over time. Wesley Matthews, Marcus Thornton, Jerryd Bayless. My ultimate dream which will never happen in a million years: Tyreke Evans I like the overall thinking. Get a young wing to grow with Dwight. How do we get that high of a pick or player? Trade Tat and our first?

  21. Forgive me if this has been posted. It's from December but is very applicable: quote: Heyyyyyy worrrrld!!! Good, good win for us last night against Utah because I really look at them as one of the toughest teams in the league. Those guys get layups, pass the ball well and play really tough. But we were able to grind it out by getting a lot of contributions on offense and we played good strong defense. With Utah in town, I got to hang out with my man, Carlos Boozer, for a little while. That guy is like my big brother and my closest friend not on the Magic. It really meant a lot to me last season in the playoffs when he was in Orlando, pulling hard for us in the playoffs against Cleveland and the Lakers. That

    Dwight Loves Boozer, Bosh and Wade

    I'm just not a Boozer fan. Frankly, I'd rather have Haslem for a 1/3 of the cost. However, to me, Bosh >>> Boozer.

    Gortat & Lewis for Bosh & Turk??

Bosh is on record saying he doesn't think he and dwight would play well together Where has Bosh said that? It's the first I've read it but I easily could have missed it.
