All Eyes On Me

I just don’t see how Cam Johnson fits. I like our rotation wings more than him, and we can’t afford to trade a guard for another wing.

Yeah, we didn’t sign Cory Joseph because he was the best player we could grab, we signed him because he won’t expect minutes or disturb the locker room if he doesn’t get them, and he’s a vet presence with deep playoff run experience. If we wanted our 15th man to be able to play consistently, we would have re-signed Markelle to the minimum

With the signing of our last roster spot today, the Markelle Fultz era in O-Town has officially come to an end. It had some high highs, and it had some low lows, but I can’t help but think Kelle helped get us through the darkest times of the rebuild with some highlights and some hope and played a huge role in where we are now. I wish Markelle the best going forward with his health and his career, and although it was time to move on and the right decision, I will miss seeing him in Magic blue. He joins so many other Magic Men in the past thats memories are accompanied by what could have been.

Last roster spot finally filled. Not Tyus, not Markelle. Cory Joseph on a 2 year deal. Gotta imagine it’s a minimum with a team option on year 2

I’m out in Denver too! For whatever reason it seems like the Nuggets seem content with the one title and have been afraid to get into the luxury tax to maintain a dynasty. Let Brown walk a year ago and then KCP this year. They’re wasting away the rest of Joker’s prime. Frustrating

Gary Trent Jr on a one year to Milwaukee

Some contract details starting to come out, and wow, Weltman cooked this off-season. Harris and Moe have teams options after the first year. Isaac has next year and the year after fully guaranteed, but only half guaranteed in year 3 and unguaranteed years 4 and 5.

Think we’ll miss Joe more than most of you guys think. Maybe not on the floor, but from a leadership and veteran presence, he meant a huge amount to this team’s growth last year. Minnesota musta promised him playing time that we couldn’t.

We’re bringing back Kelle for cheap, aren’t we.

I’ll tell you now that with how we’re treating Moe Wagner, Franz is very much in our future plans as a max contract

Sounds like the JI contract does have an exhibit 3 built in again that could void the contract if an injury occurs to a specific body part… so it’s a massive win of a deal…

I’d expect Isaac is front-loaded this year and will be on a cheaper per season deal near the end to even out Paolo, Franz and Jalen’s extensions.

Yeah, im looking forward to seeing the structure and the guarantees. I don’t buy for a second that he’s magically healthy, and I hope we’re smarter than that. Also 5 year $84 mill is only about $18 mill a season, not a bad contract at all compared to what some of these guys are getting paid this off-season

5 year $84 million extension for JI

Probably. Unless we go point guard instead and bring in Tyus or bring back Markelle instead of Ingles
