Oh my goodness, we are still underestimated. We beat Cleveland like 2 out of 3games last season We swept Miami 4 to 0 last season We beat Chicago 2 to 1 last season Even though they we beat Boston 3 to 1 last season, its going to be tougher this upcoming season but what is up with this underestimating the Magic crap.

Wait a minute...we beat Chicago without Rashard Lewis 2 out of 3 times. What the heck are they thinking? They are forgetting the factor of the Bulls being a youthful team of talented players. Can't guarantee these things yet.

This article is so long, I have to agree with them.

Blount also has a jumper, so he can play a bit inside / out alongside Dwight. Minnesota does it to shed Blount's contract (3 years @ ~7, 7.5, & 8 million left), get a cheap point guard, and a couple "chance" picks for the future. Why it won't happen: Blount's contract isn't particularly terrible. Although Minny will need a veteran PG, I think Blount is *just barely* productive enough for them to keep him at his salary. Unless Minny has plans to shed as much contract weight as possible for next year's free agency, they wouldn't pull the trigger. The twist to that trade, "we would have one point guard; Jameer Nelson and Keyon Dooling but Dooling really isn't a point guard is he?

Nick Collison is the most attractive player in this trade. I take it that anyone remember that Nick killed Dwight on the boards in the last game against Seattle Supersonics?

RockChalk, excuse me but..how come you can't say D.i.k.e.mbe? On the topic at hand, it was known to many that free agents would be attracted to Boston after this "Blockbuster" trade. For SmackDaddy's sake, who wouldn't want to play with Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, and Paul Pierce. Seems as Boston on the search for role players that will compliment the talent of the trio of stars. Guess after Boston lost the first pick in this years draft, they turned the tables and really sort of have the last laugh.

Timberwolves Roster: Mark Blount Corey Brewer Ricky Davis Randy Foye Ryan Gomes Gerald Green Trenton Hassell Juwan Howard Troy Hudson Marko Jaric Al Jefferson Mark Madsen Rashad McCants Theo Ratliff Chris Richard Craig Smith Sebastian Telfair Bracey Wright Players of interest...Gerald Green, Corey Brewer, Mark Jaric, Al Jefferson, Randy Foye, Ricky Davis, Ryan Gomes. The problem is, trading will be pointless. Trading young talent for young talent.

Just thinking about Shaq and his new reality show imagined one of the Magic players in there own reality show or game show. I was thinking about Garrity being The Bachelor. Kind of gives you some crazy thoughts. Jameer Nelson and Hedo Turkoglu on Wife Swap. JJ Redick and Keith Bogans on American Idol. Rashard Lewis on "I love New York 2" See what you can think of.

Pat Garrity should star on I Love New York Dwight Howard could go on So you think you can dance Rashard Lewis could be on American Idol as the little girl that cries for Sanjaya. Stan Van Gundy could be on The Surreal Life. Make up your own show or put them in a show like friends or something Let you Imagination Run Wild, Thats The Wonder Of Wonder Works Only Orlando people know what WonderWorks is...or do they?

I'm a thread killer too. I just don't get it. Am I dangerous or do I make such a good point that no one wants to answer. Am I the finalize r, the concluder, the Armageddon, the consummation?

Zach Randolph Ray Allen Kevin Garnett Rashard Lewis Jason Richardson The only balance gained to the east is the rosters with these players apart of there team. Some teams such as Milwaukee, Atlanta, and Philadelphia haven't gotten any better.

Lets not forget one factor, the Magic killers. These Magic killers may be sitting on the bench but there is seemingly one on every team in the NBA. Never underestimate a teams bench you guys.

Just checked out the Magic roster and noticed that we have only a single center in Tony Battie. Sure Dwight can play that position but who will be his sub when he sits out? Will this be a weakness or a strength or both. Thinking on this, it may be a strength on the count of our players being quicker than the opposition or this being a weakness on the count of being beaten up down low. Since I am absolutely lost, is Otis planning on signing any Centers or will the general manager sit on it?

Actually, that triple threat won't be much of a challenge. Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, and Ray Allen have been well, facile to beat when this particular bunch was separated. Concerning the thought of them joining the same NBA roster would make it more facile to gain victories from the teams they left. Don't forget, the Magic have an addition of scoring threats in Rashard Lewis, JJ Redick, and Bo Outlaw......did I say Bo Outlaw? I meant Dwight Howard. Bobcats won't be in our league. We have far better shooters then them. Gerald Wallace is improving on his scoring and shooting performance. We have three players who can do that; Rashard Lewis, JJ Redick, and Hedo Turkoglu are already there. Dwight Howard "owns" Okafor and don't forget what Ariza did to him...poor guy. As for Toronto.....well, they are ominous characters who agonize the Magic by being victorious in the past 5 seasons in the season series. Chris Bosh career high was marked against us I presume. Dang, I hate Toronto. Sure, big men such as Marcus Camby & the dexterity of Chris Webber's passing skills rubbing off on our future All-Star, Dwight Howard. This roster has a shortage; we have one center in Tony Battie.

We don't have Gortat yet cause I don't see him on the roster. Is the Organization planning on signing Marcin Gortat? And about the PJ Brown and Chris Webber. Is this some sort of deal or something? I should look more into that. Where the Darko Milicic is Nyce?!

Move Erwing from Assistant Coach to back up howard 4. Try to sign back Skile to play the starting pg 5. Try to bring back from retirement Antonio Davis to be the back up pf. 6. Sign Jameer 6 years contract $8m per year 7. Hire a new agent just in case he need to look for a new job. Wow, lets get to work Otis. Grant Hill is gone ay? I should make him walk the plank.

Beholding the thought of the summer madness nearly concluded, is there anything left on this offseason checklist? * Dude, I am totally lost. Gone since the 6 of July till today. All I know is that Darko and Deiner is gone. *
