JMEWLS1 0 Report post Posted September 27, 2007 Well I've heard nothing? But out for the year? Man that can't be good! I want to see an article first, before I jump to conclusions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nyce_1 311 Report post Posted September 27, 2007 If true, this would NOT be good. If he's out, Bo will get that final roster spot. This guy LOVES to be injured, lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
djmase20 0 Report post Posted September 27, 2007 that blows.. not that I am the biggest Battie fan, but he is at least solid. Looks like the "Warlock" will be getting extended minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SmackDaddy 30 Report post Posted September 27, 2007 That's the problem with extending a guy like Battie for 6.5 million while letting a young guy like Darko walk and sign for slighty more (before you start talking about how one didn't cause the other, I'm aware...but, Battie wasn't up for an extension when we offered one). Now we are relying upon Foyle, who is good for 10-15 minutes per game, Gortat, who has zero NBA experience, Bo who wasn't even resigned, and Garrity, who we should've traded four years ago. That's a great frontcourt. Dammit! Why doesn't Otis just call me up and ask what moves he should make? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davcivic 11 Report post Posted September 27, 2007 I can't find it either...I know Joey Colon is the official magic commentator in spanish radio, he's the guys the show on the games sometimes, well everygame..... If he really said this, it must be true, he is pretty much part of the organization.... This sucks....I mean, like it was said before, at least Battie is a really solid player, that could start if needed.... I guess Foyle and Gortat will get some big minutes this year.... ooooooooooorrrrrrrrrrrr, we need to find someone quick... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SmackDaddy 30 Report post Posted September 27, 2007 Maybe this will motivate management to trade Hedo & parts to acquire a big upgrade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davcivic 11 Report post Posted September 27, 2007 maybe it is a blessing in disguise..... or maybe Augie will take over and rise to be an allstar... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I personally think it will as IMO Otis see's Tony as a legit NBA starter when he isn't. Battie is a hard worker and I love his attitude and feel he does a job for us but hopefully now Otis will see how thin our frontcourt is and get a real big in too replace him.

Marc Acres 3:16 418 Report post Posted September 27, 2007 Nothing on 740, WDBO, and near as I can tell I don't see anything on WONQ's page (that is the AM station that Joey Colon is on to broadcast the Magic games). If someone can check over the site and see if they see anything that I missed here is the link. http://lagrande1030am.com/web/mos/Frontpage/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
