Berto 338 Report post Posted June 25, 2009 It is magic tradition to trade away young players before they become really good. So in that regard, this makes sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Magicfanagain 0 Report post Posted June 25, 2009 JJ fans unite! The argument is apparently a night away from ending. Wow. Just when I was a magic fan again, and finally started enjoying the NBA a little again. Nice talking to some of you on here. Looks like I'll be joining a Nets forum soon as well, and hoping Jay-z can somehow get Lebron to come play with Harris and Lee in 2010. Superman can't be too happy about this...him and Lee were reportedly quite good friends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted June 25, 2009 quote: Originally posted by magicfan83:I love the rook but you guys really have to be kidding. We finally get a guy who can create his own shot, find someone to take Battie off our hands, and nip any PG controversies/chemistry issues in the bud. If we keep Hedo and add McDyess, we have to be the favorites to win it all. Carter scored 20.8ppg last year, and with all the help he will have in Orlando he will probably improve his shot selection. Nelson/AJ/2nd round PG? Carter/Pietrus/JJ Hedo/Pietrus/Shard/Carter Lewis/McDyess Howard/Gortat? 2nd round big? That lineup looks really solid to me. I HATE HATE HATE giving up Lee, but this makes us a lot better NOW, and we are in a championship window. And I seriously doubt New Jersey does this deal without Lee in the mix. if we get carter we're losing hedo. nelson 7.6 mil shard is 18 mil dwight 14.4 mil hedo 10 mil vc 16.1 mil thats 66 million with 5 guys. then you have jj at 2.8, aj at 1.9, and pietrus at 5.3 Thats 76 mil with no backup bigs at all and 6 or 7 roster spots to fill.

Mr Charisma 0 Report post Posted June 25, 2009 Geez, guys. When did Courtney Lee become Kobe Bryant? That was quick !!! I love the kid, but I would understand the trade. The Magic want to make sure that they have another championship run next year so that they have momentum for ticket sales going into the new arena. In fact, I've never been a big VC fan, but come off the window ledge. Can't say I'm hoping for the trade, but it's not as ridiculous as some would make it seem.
