magicdoc1 261 Report post Posted July 1, 2016 doubt it. harris at 16ish/year would be valuable in this trade market. but yeah, no idea how we judge that trade because it provided ibaka. At minimum it was a misallocation of resources. That trade didnt provided Ibaka. If you are saying that because Ely was involved then I dont agree. We could easely used other pieces like Napier or CJ. That trade happened before the Meeks trade. I think we cant say much about the Harris trade until we see more of Gordon and Mario. The trade was more to free up more Playing time for those two players plus also the cap room which we are still working on hopefully getting a max player soon.

magicdoc1 261 Report post Posted July 1, 2016 nobody is arguing Vucevic is a bad offensive player. You're linking a game where we gave up 22 offensive rebounds and westbrook put up 48 because we couldn't defend the pick and roll. This and this! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seanjfarrell 3 Report post Posted July 1, 2016 Everyone complaining about Vuc needs to realize his contract is a steal right now and his defensive problems are about to be a lot less with Vogel and Ibaka's help. I wouldn't be surprised if we move Ibaka to the 5 and Vuc to the 4. Especially considering Ibaka's desire to play more 5 and Vuc's midrange jump shot.

jmmagicfan 302 Report post Posted July 1, 2016 Interesting that ESPN's tracker still doesn't show anything about the Augustin signing, but his player page now lists him with the Magic!?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jmmagicfan 302 Report post Posted July 1, 2016 So we couldnt use that for Ibaka trade? No, player's full salary has to fit under the TPE for you to use it - you can't combine it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
