Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted June 27, 2017 We have 30 MILLION dollars worth of 5s, plus Zimmerman. Who are we taking 8 minutes from? I think we need to play our youth starting him at the 3 and let the chips fall where they may. EP-DJ-Watson Ross-Fournier-Hunt-Garino Isaac-Mario-Fournier AG-Isaac-Rudez Biyombo-Vuc-Zimmerman and for small ball EP Fournier Ross Isaac AG We really need to dump DJ and Watson and get a better backup PG while keeping a spot or 2 open for luxury tax bailouts with picks attached. I was unaware that we signed vuc and biyombo to 15 year contracts with no trade clauses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted June 27, 2017 I still think Gordon should be getting some minutes at the 5... eh, I think in those situations you're playing Isaac and Gordon together so both are interchangeable. you'd still be going 4 shooters around Gordon, ideally.

Soul Bro 1,419 Report post Posted June 27, 2017 Jonathan Isaac had been one of the targets even before the new management. To add, him not working out for us was on purpose to confuse other teams: http://www.orlandosentinel.com/sports/orlando-magic/os-sp-magic-scout-jonathan-isaac-0627-story.html There are a lot of posters on this board that need to eat crow after reading this article. The night of the draft many people on here were throwing fits that we had not met with Isaac or done adequate due diligence prior to the draft. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trey Time 186 Report post Posted June 27, 2017 I don't think having the endorsement of the guy we just fired is exactly what's gonna win people over, just saying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
random 19 Report post Posted June 27, 2017 A lot of guys we were interested in playing in the upcoming summer league. "Isaac will be one of six lottery picks from last week’s NBA Draft who could see action in the summer league. Orlando’s Isaac (No. 6 pick), New York’s Frank Ntilikina (No. 8), Dallas’ Dennis Smith Jr. (No. 9), Charlotte’s Malik Monk (No. 11), Detroit’s Luke Kennard (No. 12) and Miami’s Bam Adebayo (No. 14) could play in the event. Ntilikina’s availability is uncertain because he is still competing in playoff action in his home country in France." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The night of the draft many people on here were throwing fits that we had not met with Isaac or done adequate due diligence prior to the draft. We threw fits because it was reported that he did not work out for us(he didn't) on top of possibly not receiving his medicals(We still don't know if we got them).

Lol. You're completely missing the truth (and point) here. It's clear our team did exhaustive research on Isaac and kept it top secret. But whatever.
