LJ Magic 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2008 Like the Redick draft everyone knows what Otis is thinking prior to it even starting. Well, if someone wants Lee they now know exactly what they need to do. Way to hold your cards until the last moment Otis. Orlando assistant general manager Dave Twardzik contacted Lee's representatives Wednesday night and informed them that he was the team's choice if still available at No. 22. The only factors that could change that would be if Stanford center Robin Lopez or Florida's Marreese Speights were still available -- something that is highly unlikely.

Will everyone please stop arguing that Otis is more clever than we think. His idea of "creative financing" is to overpay. His idea of making changes is to stand pat. His idea of getting the most out of a draft is to inform all 29 other teams exactly what we are thinking. This job is too much for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jareth Cutestory 678 Report post Posted June 26, 2008 LET ME GET ANGRY EVEN THOUGH WE WORKED LEE OUT MORE THEN ANY OTHER PROSPECT. LET ME ACT SURPRISED BY THIS EVEN THOUGH WE'VE BEEN DISCUSSING THE POTENTIAL DRAFTING OF EITHER LEE/RUSH/or CDR FOR THE PAST 6 WEEKS. Give it a rest people!

gporter 5 Report post Posted June 26, 2008 I don't get it. Bogans doesn't opt out Magic resign Evans Magic don't trade JJ Magic draft Lee How many shooting guards does this team need? I am almost certain Bogans is trade bait if all of this happens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mayhem 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2008 quote: Houston has offered Luther Head and the No. 25 pick to Washington in hopes of moving up to No. 18 to snag Lee. The Wizards, who are high on Speights, aren't expected to trade their pick. Indiana, who pulled off a blockbuster Wednesday night with the Toronto Raptors involving Jermaine O'Neal and T.J. Ford, could use the No. 17 pick it acquired from the Raptors on Lee as well. So - who do the Magic take if one of these scenarios happen and everyone mentioned is unavilable (Lee, Lopez, Speights)?

What's not to get? All of those guys you mentioned have been called career backups by just about everyone on this board. Apparently we, and a bunch of other teams, think Lee can be a starter in this league. It's simple. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
