Rumor:Blazers interested in Gortat update pg3:TragicFan:BLAKE might COME TO ORLANDO

Would it completely kill us financially to keep Gortat? Because as far as I've seen, we're doing pretty good with what we've got going now...

what's that? your team is still trying to gel in the midst of injuries and suspension? why not ship out a few and add a myriad a new players, sounds like a recipe for success...

I think that they're just wondering if he can be trusted to get better in the clutch against the Lakers where "pretty good" won't cut it.

First, thanks to the OP for the rumor. However, I dont see any of the above trade rumors happening unless it is purely a salary dump. The transaction would not make the Magic better this year and would actually hinder our depth. This is a championship year and I hope the Magic are not already regretting being in the luxary tax. I hope they decide to ride this year out before dumping any salary.

if gortat is angry with his role we could trade him.

I'd do it for just Rudy + 1st round pick.

Update:

 

Steve Blake is coming to Orlando along with a 1st round pick.

 

Why the Magic are doing it: Cap relief and draft pick

 

More to come.

Nah, I mean it makes sense Portland probably wants another center but this is all moving to fast for me to be able to believe it.
