ya paul milsap would be awesome, but i doubt utah would let him go. glen davis also would be great, but we def. need some kind of either defense or big man/defense

I think the problems we had in the past with the draft wont be an issue this year. I am pretty sure SVG will do a much better job than brian hill.
The one guy that did do allright for us got ran out of town. Remember the hockey guy??

I checked into Millsap a while back; he's not a free agent this season. Too bad...

I'm not high on Robin Lopez at all, I'd rather get a guy like Speights or CDR with the pick.

Just might be enough. Utah loves those white guys.

If the Magic will stay with Hedo and Rashard at the Foward starting slots, Reggie Evans would be a fantastic backup. He would come in to play defense whenever Lewis sits. Basically stopping the game; and allowing Lewis to get a breather. As the Sixers are loaded with Forwards and thin at SG, a trade could be worked out.

Evans for Redick and Bogans matches salary.

I really don't think that Otis Smith agree's with you. Considering his latest pronouncement about what is going to happen at the SG slot and with Redick.
Here is what he said:

Shore up at shooting guard

Maurice Evans (above) moved into the starting lineup Jan. 9 and never relinquished his hold on the job. But he turns 30 in November and becomes a free agent July 1. His situation is reminiscent of what the Magic faced two years ago with DeShawn Stevenson, who left for the Washington Wizards after his asking price became too steep.

Keith Bogans, whom the Magic signed in anticipation of Stevenson's departure, is one of two players on the roster who can opt out of their contracts. Retaining both Evans and Bogans is possible, but Smith figures to look into trying to strengthen that position through free agency (perhaps Golden State's Mickael Pietrus) or a trade.

And what's to become of J.J. Redick, who has played a combined total of 79 games with no starts since being drafted out of Duke with much fanfare in 2006?

"I fully expect to see him back," Smith said.
