Absolutely, glad we got a great return for him but he's still an all star caliber player and a class act.


I miss Vuc for sure and hope he joins Magic organization in the future.

The trade has been the best thing for the Magic since Tracy McGrady.

This is a basketball forum and you guys are talking about missing a loyal person… ok. We wouldn’t have Franz and this new push for a better roster without the Vuc trade. AG is the real MVP for being the catalyst that kicked it all off by requesting a trade.

It's really annoying how we have to play back to back games against the Bucks twice in one season. Last time we scared them a bit in the 4th and they delivered a beatdown in the follow-up game.

I'm not sure they'll even let Franz touch the ball tomorrow.

Lol, don't get mad at others because you got responses that you didn't expect. I also still miss Vuc. Doesn't take away from how great Wendell and Franz have been though.

No one is mad… but the irony in missing Vuc while enjoying Franz is rich to me. That’s like saying you love your wife but miss your ex-girlfriend that you dumped :lol: Vuc is our ex for a reason :lol:

1. Vuc is not only loyal but is also a top 5 Center in the NBA.

2. We can still trade for Vuc or sign him while keeping the assets that we received so your wife gf analogy doesn't really work there.
Even if it did I'm not the one who made the call to trade him so it's perfectly normal to miss a guy that you never wanted traded in the first place

I bet NY would take a 2nd round pick for Fournier right now and we have a TPE that he would fit. I wouldn't do it tho.

Edit that, he makes more than our TPE, we'd have to trade Harris for him, which the Knicks would probably do.

If we traded for Fournier our lineup would look like this next season.

Cole/Fultz
Suggs/Fournier
Franz/Chuma
Jabari/Isaac
WCJ/Bamba

Deep bench
Ross/RJ/Moe

Evan’s value is as a sharpshooter off the bench. I can’t believe he was offered the contract that he got. And to think they thought they could start Kemba and Evan is even crazier.
