Unless Arroyo develops a 3 ball, I wouldn't prefer him. Being able to shoot the 3 is important on this team.

 

omg, you cant be serious.

 

Chris Quinn is a total scrub.

 

a scrub with starting experience and 40% 3pt shooting.

 

Plus, look at the guy

 

I bet we'd sell more tickets to the "mentally handicapped" crowd.

A Scrub who can barely get on the floor with a rookie pg starting (who's also not that good), a scrub who started when the team only won 15 games.

 

I rather have Lue back than Quinn.

A grown man who looks like a 12 year old? Really?

just imagine.. JJ and Arroyo on the court at the same time.

 

exactly. so no

I would take Carlos Arroyo back if he's signs for the vet minimum. I read through the previous Carlos Arroyo thread and he wants a serious starting role.

 

I think that its possible for Carlos to start for scrub teams but it doesn't seem realistic for a contender. His ego won't let him shy away from the thought of being a backup and not the main man on the floor.

 

I would love having him here to back up Jameer. He would have a sick second lineup and great bench depth.........well.........if he doesn't go on a shooting slump that is. He's a great passer and he walks the ball up to the front court far more easily than AJ.

If Arroyo develops a better shot, and the fans cheer for the whole team and not just Arroyo, than I'd like him back.

As I posted on another thread:

 

As a Puerto Rican, I would love to see Arroyo back on my favorite team. I think it's great when someone can represent my country in the NBA, or anywhere for that matter, there aren't many Puerto Ricans in the NBA and there are a lot of us that live in the Central Florida area, so excuse us for cheering on our favorite player.

 

If he doesn't come back though, I wont lose any sleep over it. In the end I am still a Magic fan.

The other day i was joking around with one of my friends at work and she told me off in spanish so i was like "tu madre" and she freaked out and was all like "oh my god you could get shot for saying that in puerto rico!" And i was like "Puerto Rico??? Carlos Arroyo es Puerto Rico!!!!" I miss this guy.... but he cant defend or shoot the three

[Nyce_1 311]

realisticly, what's the most you'll pay for Arroyo?

 

With Philly being interested and having the MLE in hand, we might have to pay more than the vet min to get him.

 

$2M would be fair, imo. No?

No, I mean like cheering for like Rashard if he hits a crunch time 3 pointer with only a minute left in the game. And not waiting for Arroyo to get in to start cheering when he does something good.

Well, we're alreadyin the luxury tax as it is, so...

 

If it's true we still hold his bird rights, then I'd top it off at 3 million per. About the same as Dooling was paid when he was here.

 

By the way though, Carlos isn't that much better than Chris Quinn.
