ball junkie 277 Report post Posted January 17 1 minute ago, hootie249 said: We really need to make a move for another ball handler, point guard and a shooter or one pretty good guy who does both. Brogdon,Tyus, whoever. I do see a sneaky opportunity in trading Isaac to the Spurs. I could see them thinking he would be a great fit next to Wemby. Also his off the court stuff would be better suited to Texas. No doubt Isaac is a game changer, we just saw it the other night. So if the front office wants to keep him for one more year i don't blame them. His contract expires right when we have to pay Suggs and the two Wagners. Texas lol …Florida is about as solid conservative as you can get …just like JI …if you’ve ever been to the games he’s a crowd favorite …they love him and so do I 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fan for too long 2 531 Report post Posted January 17 A smart team would showcase these often injured players right now and the. Trade the ones that have value. Hoping they become healthy is fools gold. My choice is wcj and fultz, because Isaac has what the others don’t. An elite ability. I would take a my chance on that, unless he can nab you a very good point guard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soul Bro 1,419 Report post Posted January 17 If I’m keeping any of the guys mentioned, it’s easily WCJ. He’s on a great contract and has been relatively healthy here (relative to the others being mentioned). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Keep both him and Goga and figure it out later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All Eyes On Me 1,210 Report post Posted January 17 I think the main reason WCJ’s name is getting thrown out there is because he’s the only one with real value for other teams more than cap relief. If we trade WCJ, I’d hope it’d be for an all-star return Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MagicMan1979 105 Report post Posted January 17 Finally, one intriguing dark horse candidate is the Magic, who also have a strong frontcourt, and for whom any amount of competent point guard play would be a massive change of pace. The last Magic player to average at least 20 points and five assists per game was Steve Francis, 19 years ago. Orlando projects for copious cap space after this season but could slot Murray in and still have money left over for further summer upgrades. From The Ringer about Murray. Also on The Lowe Post today Bobby Marks talks about The Magic and our situation. We are the second team they talk about. We have 5 first round picks that can be traded and 12 second round picks!

Then they went with the nepotism pick with Jett. At the moment it seems like we should have drafted Hawkins,Podziemski or even Keyonte George. First two were the best shooters in the draft and George was mocked to us in the super early mock drafts mid college season. Thing is with draft picks a lot of the role players wind up being just a guy later on in their careers and players like Anthony and Keyonte become bona fide starters. Jett is a tall shooter so if he can defend at all in the NBA he will get a chance. If we get lucky he might be our current Dennis Scott, helping the Magic get to the Finals.

There was a rumour someone, I want to say Atlanta but might be misremembering ,was trying to trade up for Wallace. My theory was we were going to trade back and take Jett and the team moving up was getting Wallace, and then when that fell apart we thought "***** it let's just take him here anyway".

All Eyes On Me 1,210 Report post Posted January 17 Yeah, I think Jett was probably the move all along with the 2nd pick. We have enough competent rotation that we could afford to take a swing and redshirt a raw prospect until some of the older and less reliable rotational pieces phase out. He’s clearly the Gary Harris in the rotation next year, assuming we don’t make a trade and improve that spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
