    All I know at this point is whoever we draft I am going to welcome them with open arms.

    I highly doubt they would take Zeller 2. Zeller is a move if you make a trade with someone like Minnesota or OKC for more picks.

    I'm pretty sure Caron Butler would go ahead and skip the presser.

    I wish the draft would just get here. I am pretty sick of the build up and rumors at this point.

    Magic Going All In For Chris Paul's Backup?

    Numbers LOL. This team won 20 games last year. Stats are not really relevant. And I do like Nicholson but lets not pretend Rob could not find someone who has a similar skill set. It would not be giving up. It would be giving up something to get something. I would definitely not include a pick but if we have to throw in AN I would not be heartbroken.

    The trade is really win win. Afflalo gets to go home and play in LA which clearly he loves. The Magic get a PGWTUP. So there you go.

    Considering Hennigan's first 2 trades I trust his judgement went it comes to youngsters. Time will tell but I doubt that is the final incarnation of the deal. As a matter of fact Chad Ford says its a straight up deal with no picks. That info must be coming from the Clips side to get people to up their offers.

    Also REAL GM is a cesspool of bad basketball opinions and broken dreams but they have a page that details all future draft picks for all teams which comes in handy. Here you go everyone: http://basketball.realgm.com/nba/draft/future_drafts/detailed

    We have the worse pick of the Nuggets or Knicks.

    I think it could be a smokescreen but it could also be in case Cleveland thinks they can move down and still get him. Really I would not believe anything until the Magic actually pick but it could be an interesting couple of days for sure.

    The best part about Oladipo for him is he is in this draft. In a normal draft with elite talent he would probably go 8-15. Noel and McClemore have more game changing type skills although Noel scares the crap out of me. Having an elite shooter does wonders for an offense.

    I know that it was more in fun than anything else.

    Arron Affalo, Jameer and Filler to LAC for Bledsoe, Butler, and Jordan. Jordan to Boston for KG. Buy KG out let him go to the Clips. Badabingbadaboom.

    I do not think anyone in this draft is going to turn around a team or its "culture." I think they will be a piece but that is really it. Anything less would be uncivilized.

    Why on earth would we want Rondo. He would just sulk here and Vaughn would have absolutely no authority over him if Doc could not control him.

    I do not think it ever mattered where Lebron played it was just who had the cap space to get all 3 of those guys. If that team was Chicago or the Knicks they would all be there. As a wrap up great post by O who has always been one of my favorite posters. I think with the watered down version of the East Lebron would have gotten here with Cleveland. He is just to incredibly talented not to win. I think their run ends now as well and maybe he goes back to Cleveland but who knows. Good for them for taking advantage of what was in front of them. Also the Spurs though less talented were an incredible adversary. I will always contend Pop should not have taken out Duncan in Game 6 since a 3 is a 40/60 thing anyway. I look forward to all of these teams getting healthy and hopefully next year we will see more competition overall.

    Lamb got the Reece Gaines treatment. They watched him practice and went lol no.

    Completely agree. It's really a coin flip with all of these guys and that is scary.

    Kwame Brown once destroyed Tyson Chandler in a workout. I do not know if Ben is a sure thing but I put almost no stock into an individual workout.

    No but he interviewed and sources tell me he was very "unimpressive."

    I do not think we have that many pics and it would probably take us over roster limit size as well.

    Noel would be good because our defense is ultra soft on the interior. Teams pretty much scored at will at the rim. However I have my doubts that he will be any good at the pro level.
