Live or Die Magic 383 Report post Posted June 27, 2013 Honestly I do not know how I feel if the Magic draft Oladipo, I rather have McLemore We'd just have to hope that McLemore is Harold Miner, and Oladipo is Joe Dumars. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ILoveOrlandoMagic 12 Report post Posted June 27, 2013 @WojYahooNBA Sacramento has been aggressive in trying to move up from seventh in the draft, league sources tell Y! Likely target: Ben McLemore. Number 2 for Evans and number 7? LOL I doubt Ben will drop to #7 Who would the Kings give up? All I can think of draft picks and Cousins but I doubt they want to deal with a headcase And that trade would be awful for the Magic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skywise316 211 Report post Posted June 27, 2013 No one will be happy with whatever happens until that first summer league game. That is when the new rookie will ascend into God-like status on the forums. Ha, exactly. For me personally (as long as it isn't Zeller at #2) I'll be probably happy... but yes, I'll be one of the worst culprits of ascending that guy to God-like status after his first summer league game. :shard: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jmmagicfan 302 Report post Posted June 27, 2013 Here is what I think (hope?) happens tonight: Magic take Oladipo #2 Minnesota takes McCollum, or Carter-Williams #9 Minnesota takes Bullock, Crabbe, Snell, Rice, or Ledo #26 Trade announced Magic get rights #9, #26, & Greg Steimsma Minnesota gets rights #2 & Nicholson This makes the salary cap numbers almost exactly balance Leaves us with: PG Nelson/#9/Moore SG Afflalo/Lamb/#26 SF Harkless/Jones/#26 PF Harris/Davis/O'Quinn C Vucevic/Steimsma If neither McCollum or Carter-Williams is available, then I think you go Caldwell-Pope at #9, and Lorenzo Brown, Erick Green, or Nate Wolters at #26 and maybe try to pick up an additional free agent PG. Obviously you switch out the #9 and #26 on depth chart above. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drain-O 369 Report post Posted June 27, 2013 Oladipo is the next Michael Jordan so I guess I am okay... http://espn.go.com/blog/truehoop/post/_/id/60575/is-victor-oladipo-the-next-michael-jordan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jmmagicfan 302 Report post Posted June 27, 2013 Then, if we are playing too well, you can always tinker with the line-up to "give new guys playing time/evaluate" Starting lineup of #9/#26/Jones/O'Quinn/Steimsa and primarily using Moore to backup the 1, Lamb at the 2, Harkless at the 3, and BBD at the 4/5 shouldn't win us too many games. Give Nelson, Afflalo, Harkless, Harris and Vucevic only 15-18 minutes each - maybe even DNP-CD one or two of them each game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jay Magic 1,251 Report post Posted June 27, 2013 @WojYahooNBA Utah likes Dennis Schroeder a great deal (14 and 21), and scant chance Nets (22) and Pacers (23) let guard reach New York, sources tell Y! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
