Orlando Magic Toaster 26 Report post Posted February 18, 2017 Payton is like a poor man's version of prime Rajon Rondo. I don't think the guy is a starting PG on a good team in the NBA. He could be one of the league's best backups though. I think it's unfair to compare Payton to Rondo, yes there's similarities but Rondo could easily rack up assists throwing the ball to Allen or Pierce. If Payton had the same shooting talent around him and played 40 minutes a night he would have some great stats, particularly assists. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Franchero MVP 391 Report post Posted February 18, 2017 The words you are saying mean nothing Meh in the Tobias trade, we got fleeced. Pretty sure SVG thinks Henny is a fool anyway -- he totally outted him to the media saying he was surprised he didn't request a first round pick in the trade for Harris.

Miller4Prez66 545 Report post Posted February 18, 2017 I think he'd be a solid backup. He can bring tempo and pesky defense. I guess by default he would be one of the better backup PG's in the league as there really aren't many good ones--but his weaknesses as as starter are still there as a backup. I'd like for Orlando to just wash there hands clean of Payton. I agree, I prefer to just move him. I think he'd be better elsewhere and he's been the source of too much negativity here (a coach quit over him). I think Henny being overly committed to Payton was one of his biggest mistakes. The fact that we seem to be aggressively going after guys like Goran Dragic and Reggie Jackson shows he's now finally off the Payton train. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Franchero MVP 391 Report post Posted February 18, 2017 We got meeks for nothing. Meeks is pretty much worth nothing -- guy is hurt every year and contributes nothing to the team he's on. I totally forgot dude was even on the team Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Payton had the same shooting talent around him and played 40 minutes a night he would have some great stats, particularly assists. That's a fair point, but regardless he has a similar style without anywhere near the production of Rondo then. We also don't have anyone near as good as Pierce, Allen or Garnett for him to dish assists out to. Ibaka was probably the best player he's played with and we just traded him.

Soul Bro 1,421 Report post Posted February 18, 2017 It's Henny...Negotiating with SVG...Again...Soo ya know.. I agree with you. I don't believe SVG respects the Magic or Henny that much. SVG stole Harris and he traded us a very injury prone SG, who is injured again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure he's salty with us for how he was fired, but I also can see how he more than anyone else in the league right now knows how clueless the organization is.
