Payton to Orleans for 2 2nds 

I will personally drive him to the airport... are we there yet? http://www.orlandosentinel.com/sports/orlando-magic/os-sp-orlando-magic-notes-0205-story.html "But despite his improved long-range shooting numbers, opposing teams generally back off him on the perimeter and dare him to shoot. That, in turn, limits the room his Magic teammates have to maneuver on offense."

At least the timing is right with this excellent draft coming up. Now if we could only figure out a way to get a 2nd top 5 pick!

yeah, our front office is pretty lucky with the injuries and horrible effort from its players. We've always built our best teams with a number one overall pick, but I honestly believed in the first month of the year that we'd just be getting progressively better record wise the next 3 years. Now there's kind of no win progress in sight. Oh well, back to obsessing over Trae Young...

What are some good websites to read about draft prospects?

I kind of want Smart on the Magic. While I don’t think he’s a star, his impact on the culture of a team, especially his crazy defense, is incredible. Curious if we are looking at him.

I’ve wanted Terry Rozier from Boston for the past 2 years. I think Smart is gonna get a contract this summer that he’ll never live up to

I look at as many as I can find so I get a cross section of opinions, don't pay too much attention to highlight videos, and try to watch some game archives.

I listen to podcasts. 

Ode to Oden and Sam Vencenies Game Theory,  awesome through analysis that's entertaining and you can usually scroll to find the episode of guys you want. Sam's latest episode breaks down orlando shopping Aaron, great stuff and great player prospect breakdowns
