Point is that I would not be surprised to see the Magic move Gortat this season to avoid some luxury tax (if they get a $3 million guy they will save $6 million in salaries this year due to the luxury tax) and if you can get a solid $3m a year guy they may want to take him to reduce costs and maybe get a draft pick with it.

 

I have scoured to see what is available, but Gortat and AJ for a first and a stellar $3m a year guy - maybe a 2nd year guy like Courtney Lee - not Courtney Lee, but a guy like Courtney Lee - I could see the Magic doing that. (A guy like Courtney Lee and a 1st for AJ and Gortat - I would not be at all surprised).

 

Jameer - watch out he will be on fire this year and punish teams.

 

Well in that case...

 

Keyon Dooling is making 3.5 million dollars this season.

 

I'm just sayin'.

No way we trade this guy. He is one of the best bigs in the league. We have got to find a way to keep this guy here. Bigs are hard to find. The Hammer has star potential as we see glimpses of it every time he is on the court.

It would help if your trade ideas were actually legal trades.

 

Two simultaneous trades, one after the other? I have no idea for what exactly, just trying to help.. maybe:

 

1. TE for "superstar."

 

A minute passes..

 

2. Gortat for draft pick.

I really hope we keep Marcin long-term. I know it doesn't really make sense, but a twin towers with him and Dwight? Man - that would be awesome. Especially with both being young.
