I'm one of the few people that'd be fine with it since it gets rid of the DJ contract and it makes us worse :lol:

It only makes us a little worse though. I'd only do it if there's a way for them to take Jeff Green too. Maybe get a third team to take Jeff Green.

Jeff is expiring so he can just be moved for something similar or left to expire

Lance Stephenson is reportedly ahead of schedule in his recovery from the groin tear, and there's a chance he could be cleared to return to the court by mid-January. While this is all well and good, Stephenson doesn't currently have a team to return to as he was let go by the Pelicans upon suffering the groin injury.

Any chance of a vogel-stephenson reunion?

We just entered the "dog days" of the season and happens to correspond on a big road trip. Going to be a tough 2 weeks. I remember listening to Kenny Smith do a bit on 2k17 about the January to AS break as the hardest part of the season. Young guys are hitting the wall, old guys feel old and need a break. Yet is still more than a month to go.

6 games under .500, long west coast road trip next, we are in January....looks like its the normal time of the season that the wheels fall off again. I think I've seen this **** show before. We gonna be 10 games under .500 soon and going thru the motions and playing out the strings hoping we get lottery lucky so that 4 years from now we finally make the playoffs lmao.

Why? That makes no sense. Might as well tank.

Making sense doesn't seem to be a priority.

If Vogel can get him back in form why not? Frees us up to trade Green and have enough wing depth that can compete now.

He was doing reasonably well in NOP, too. I'd take a punt on him.

Why? They'll likely get Millsap for much cheaper. Achieves a similar result.



They could get both and I still think the Cavs would beat them. The Cavs are too good and the Raps will never beat them with their current roster.

Well, with the way he plays, we might actually need him coming off the bench to bring in the much needed aggressiveness and nasty.

But he doesn't fit into the Orlando Magic's choir boy reputation.
