I like Klay idea and I think he could impact the team more than on the floor and in the locker room mentoring our young guys also. That is a Chris Paul addition years ago for the Suns. That WILL impact us in the W column.

I also think Magic should explore the Paul George or DAngelo Russell situation. Yes, Klay will help us but that doesn't solve our ball attacking pick and roll offensive option. Paul George will be a long shot since he is a UFA. DAngelo will be more realistic, but I do not know the interest level from Magic organization.

Again, this will be a very interesting summer. And anything can happen! Get Ready!
I don't think DLo is a FA

I would legitimately make a fire WePark sig and run it all season, or until they make a big move, no matter how many games we win.

Looking for a new opportunity? Trae left Klutch for CAA, Anthony Black's agency.

Cole, Wendell, and 3 picks. Re-sign Goga. Wendell is from Atlanta.

I think we’re going to have some real disappointed people after free agency.
Fine print disclaimer for Fultz:
I am high on Markelle Fultz. Yes I understand he is not perfect and needs to shoot more and better and turn the ball over less. I would really like to see him play one more year… and I did and he sucks time to move on.

Trae is from the Oklahoma area. He may want to get traded to OKC.

Suggs is better than Murray was at his age.
Maybe he stops here at 22, having reached his final form, maybe he keeps improving, what is your bet?

People have said WCJ, but I think he’s to valuable to the core and what we do.

They get 3 picks, cap relief, and a scoring guard to back up Trey Young

i’d put WCJ and get one of their bigs.

Isaac and 3 1sts (one being Denver's) for Murray = sold. Someone call whoever the hell the Hawks' GM is.

The report was they wanted multiple picks and a young player at the deadline lol. Add a pick and Cole Anthony?

OKC doesn't want or need him. They're the 1 seed and haven't lost a playoff game yet for goodness sake.

Sometimes I think you just say stuff.

They have the assets and room. They cleared space for some reason. Why would they sign Hartenstein if they are already the 1 seed? Greed

Rob c'mon now.

Hartenstein is a 12.0 USG% player offensively who never needs to touch the ball, but is great defensively. Literally 30 NBA teams would take him because he doesn't fundamentally change anything you want to do offensively while providing a massive boost defensively.

Young has never been below 30 USG in his career. Any team acquiring him is significantly overhauling the way they play offensively.

I would bet my literal life savings the Thunder aren't interested in him.

I'm highly confident that the Magic are not trading Jalen Suggs for literally anyone who could possibly be available.

That's true. I'm not sure how Young would mesh with Paolo and Franz. Both of those guys need the ball.
