Wouldn't mind a USF baller finishing out his career here 8-) .

Seriously though...

Wasn't Isiah Thomas let out of his contract this offseason? He's probably worth a shot..

" **FAKE BREAKING NEWS** Scott Skiles resigned as head coach of Milwakee Bucks to become the new starting PG for the Orlando Magic. The magic are currently in talks with bringing Nick Anderson and Horace Grant out of retirement to help bolster the front court a little more but this is just a rumor nothing signed as of yet. "

Imagine seeing something like this in the Orlando Sentinel one day. I know my reaction would be "What the hell?!!!"

Dude! First Hedo for Bargnani, now a 1st rounder for Diener (who as much as I like him, is worth a second at best) ?!?! Are you ok today? :)

It would be kinda strange to give up a 1st round pick to aquire a guy WE picked in the second round.

So to get our PG, we either need to sign a free agent or trade our exception or Cook.


agreed, maybe we can get Diner in a trade

Probably not, lol. I have found that at Basketball-Reference they have all kinds of stats that I like. The one that I like the most is Offensive and Defensive Efficiency. Both Bargs and Diener have been playing very well according to those metrics, and Diener is entering that age period when players tend to break out, so..... Anyway, maybe it's just a fad and I'll grow out of it, but as of right now that is my oracle for basketball knowledge, along with, of course, my own subjective experience with watching them play.

Kevin Kruger would be an ok option. Not to play instead of AJ, but to have just in case.

Diener? Krugar?? lmao, we are better off with AJ..... Over the summer I was all for guys like M Williams and Collins & they've both already been traded for cheap. Haven't really looked into this much, but theirs GOTTA be better options than Diener & ****ing Kevin Krugar.
