God hates Magic fans

That is why it makes sense to do it now, i am telling you guys this current group is not good enough, there are too many holes and not enough chemistry, NINE GAMES UNDER .500 Since starting 14-5 what is the real indication of who we are, the hot start or the last 35 games?

quote: Originally posted by JC Aponte:The Magic does not need Vince Carter al all.Maybe you all forgott the blowout game we handed to them a couple of weeks back, Vince was shoked by our team.What we need is for our players to find themselves again and start playing like it means something to them. PLEASE! The lack of having an explosive wing scorer has KILLED us all season long, and it becomes more apparent with mediocre coaching and mediocre PG play!

The Devos family knows jack squat about basketball, WEISBROD RESIGNED BECAUSE HE DIDN'T WANT HILL! If it's true that we won't get vince because of this egomaniac of a coach SOMETHING needs to be done. Accepting Brian Hill, is accepting mediocrity and I'm sick of it. Devos would choose Hill over Dwight too I bet.

quote: Originally posted by emory889:Resigning Darko and the Carter situation are the only significant signings that will happen this offseason. The only other thing they might do is sign a cheap big man. If you don't trade for VC now, you may not have the cap space to sign him at all. I'm not buying the notion he'd sign at a giant discount that some are putting out there.

quote: Originally posted by ThefutureGM:I am on the road but wanted to give a quick update on what I know about Carter. First - Do not believe anything that the media is telling you right now about the deal not going down. Otis is not a big fan of sports writers and is very tight lipped about moves so he won

quote: Originally posted by SladeRider: Agree, I look at it as losing JJ but gaining Darko and Vince Carter, I think that is worth JJ Redick IMO. Realistically I expect nothing to happen, if Otis is smart enough to have the foresight to see this(being able to keep darko and have vince, sort've like having your cake and eating it) he's one of the elite GM's in the league..we'll see..

That way you not only get the superstar, but you also get a solid backup for Dwight. And if you don't like Moore, then trade him for some other big. I do not know why on earth anyone would rather trade Grant over JJ. This makes no sense if you want to win now. Plus I have heard several times that Grant for VC is not going to work for the NETS!!!! Maybe a 3rd team would do it but no teams want just expiring contract. JJ is a good player and will be a very good player but some of you Magic fans have him a little to high on your talent board. If the Magic trade JJ they're going to regret it. This guy is a ROOKIE who has been given few minutes and when he's played, very rarely has he been given the green light to shoot like he did in college. The few games where he has been used a lot offensively, he was very good and showed a lot of potential. He needs to be given more minutes, not be traded. We will have Vince Carter that won't make me feel too bad about losing JJ. But I think future GM is making a bunch of stuff up, if he ends up being right I will apologize, if he's wrong he should apologize to the board because he's just trying to imitate MC IMO. If we trade for Vince we will be able to have him AND Darko, as opposed to potentially just one. Trading for Vince makes sense on these levels -Makes us a bonafied playoff team adding the element we SORELY lack -Double teams on Dwight will either slow down, or teams will be forced to watch VC eat them alive. Vince has NEVER PLAYED WITH A PLAYER THAT'S COMMANDED A DOUBLE TEAM, he would kill teams. -Being able to go from Vince to Ariza is a luxury no team has. -As I said before, it will allow us to have both VC AND Darko long term. It makes plenty of sense to trade for him now, if JJ is the difference between having VC and not, then you gotta do it.
