Think about it this way. If Rasheed signs with Boston or San Antonio, they can guard Dwight well straight up. We probably don't win that series

 

I know, and that's a good point. But I'm already upset about the Vince trade (sorry about that, to most of you) and signing Rasheed would only amplify those emotions.

 

Everything looks good on paper, but... I'm really not feeling any of this. I think losing a career from Courtney Lee for 2 years of Vince Carter is going to bite us for many years to come.

 

And if we sign this F*** FACE (pardon my bitterness) instead of Bass, that's yet another boneheaded sacrifice, IMO.

 

Why don't we just trade for Antawn Jamison while we're at it and call it a UNC reunion tour.

The thing I like about Bass is that he can be as solid a role player as anyone else who's available. We have enough star power and scoring for now and I think we need to focus on getting rebounding and defense, both of which I think Bass can excel at.

those fans seem to forget that Sheed didn't want to be in Detroit last year, which explains his stats. He supposedly wanted to be waived so he could go to a contender

It is a sacrifice but it appears that the magic are pushing for a championship now and I can live with that. Believe me, I'm not going to get over losing Turk anytime soon. I just loved watching him play for good and for not so good.

Sheed can definitely teach a thing or two to Dwight, Brandon, and Ryan.

 

Wow, what a core group of big men to grow with each other for the next 5 yrs.

Ya just thinking about that makes me kinda feel sorry for the rest of the east...BUT if we dont end up with Sheed or Bass I will be crushed.

Makes sense. Thanks

 

I would think the Magic want more now though, but I do feel that the Magic are somehow to all these people already.

 

I wonder if the Magic will explode with a couple of signings the first 3 days of July.

Boston traded a 23 and 11 guy in Al Jefferson and a nice wing in Jeff Green for their title. You think they would take it back?

Even if you think he will be useless, just having him on our bench and knowing that he won't be on another contender to play solid D against Dwight has to be worth the Vet Minimum. Right?

 

He is going to cost a lot more then the vet min, though. That's the issue.
